Unfortunately my pressing (no. 002632) has a lot of surface noise (crackle). When the sound overtakes it, it sounds great, but it's annoying though. Anybody else has this?

It's nice. Nothing spectacular, just solid, clean sound without any noise. I would definitely recommend it

Underrated Davis album from that phase of bitches brew etc. this remaster sounds great on CD, although the drums are a bit too far away for me

Sounds fantastic, and I didn't really expect it to as the time pressed on most sides feels like it's really pushing the 45rpm format. Side one especially, with just under 20 minutes of music on it. For comparison that's slightly longer than all of Dark Side of the Moon's 1st side. However it's completely unnoticeable and doesn't seem to burden the sound at all. Very lively, deep, warm, and engaging. Absolutely incredible.

Fantastic sounding. Love the title track especially. As long as it sounds good

Good edition at a reasonable price. MOV offers you a vinyl edition with high resolution recording, enough for most humans. The vinyl comes in a neat presentation, and the pressing is very good, without errors, clicks or pops. The sound is perfect, with good separation and definition of instruments, even in the fastest parts. As for the content, we are looking at a transitional work between the acoustic and electric era of Miles.

Really an unreal album. Yes the pressing and sound is amazing and betters my Og in every way, but lets talk about the music for a second. This may possibly be my favorite Miles album of all time. The overall mood set by Herbie and Chick is *chefs kiss*. Miles is on top of his game and it is one of Tonys greatest performances of all time. The music transports you to somewhere mysterious and dark yet simultaneously welcoming. Its an amazing feat in music. Simple as that

Don't have others to compare to, but this sounds like a really great pressing to me. The clarity of the drums catches me every time I put this one on!

A brilliant album and in this CD format particularly well mastered directly from the analogue tapes. One of the few CD's I really enjoy listening to in it's entirety.

In 69 there were no Europe CBS releases, only , , Holland, maybe sometimes Italy, GB for sure, all the rest had to buy imports for extra money! In case you missed out!
