    Decent pressing. I had an original pressing that clicked and popped alot no matter how many times I cleaned it, and gave the original to a friend.

    I bought Wham! - Make It Big (The European White Vinyl) to replace it, then bought this one to compare the sound.

    I just found an original pressing again at a garage sale for $2 in excellent condition.

    After comparing the 3, The original pressing has the best sound. But this one still sounds very good.

    I'd say it retains about 90% of the sound when comparing it to the original pressing. There are some differences I've noticed some differences here and there. But overall, they did a pretty good job at mastering this and Wham! - Make It Big (The European White Vinyl)

      For this version that is clearly not the Sony-UK remaster of 2024 (black vinyl, limited white vinyl) but is the 2024 Lecagy Recordings US reissue pressing can someone with knowledge of the matter please confirm on what mastering edition this reissue is based on? Also, I could not find any info on the runout etched “JWM”, if anyone recognizes the mastering engineer.

        My copy is flat, the background is black, and the sound is great!

        If you dig the music you’ll love the pressing.

        Still in stock and ready to ship from Music Direct for $27.99 (+ship):

          So, how is the quality of this repressing? I am ready to buy this but would like to read some reviews first if possible :)

          PS: just FYI I saw a video of Andrew Ridgeley unboxing the repressings and they seem to come inside a simple paper sleeve, which can be worrying sometimes (if it scratches the record during shipment). Can someone confirm this information?

            Love this album! Glad that they had a reissue couldn’t find it anywhere.
