    Will pay reasonably for a nice original cover, got a nice disc in a generic sleeve.

    SOLID psych-funk-rock IF you haven't heard. My OG sounds nice as far as sound levels and production, no pressing complaints given the content.

      A little disappointing the volume is so low on this re-issue and a little flat sounding too.

        I can't believe this piece is in my collection, and in NM- condition no less.
