Well...after 2 years of owning this in my collection...it's finally here lol. Sadly I'm not really satisfied with how this rip came out. I'm not sure if I'm just really unlucky or the album was unfortunately manufactured very awfully, but this is my 2nd copy of the LP. The first copy I bought years ago had some really strange surface noise abnormalities that kept persisting throughout all of both sides, so I tried getting a 2nd copy to fix that. One of those abnormalities persisted but it's a minor one, thankfully...the REALLY bad one that persisted in my 1st copy was gone in my 2nd one. However with the 2nd copy, some new issues arose. The last track on Side B was dirty as fuck and had lots of thumps on it for some strange reason?? Also there was some inner groove distortion on A4 and B4 as well. A friend of mine has done his best to reduce some of said distortion but there wasn't really much that could be done. Look, I LIKE this album, I really do, but copies have now seen to become much scarce than before and the prices for them rose up, too---I can't really justify spending $40-70 for another copy. Anyways, that's enough for now. If you like Casiopea's/T-Square's music then you'll prob like this without a doubt. Especially with mellow tracks such as A3 and B3 ;) Enjoy!!
