Verve by Request is crap, right?

Because this album rules but I'm ok with digital if the pressing sucks.

It’s not that their pressings necessarily suck. More often than not the mastering is lackluster.

If it helps, I ordered it just now because that’s the price point I like for their particular slot machine.
 
I have an original stereo of that and it's so fucking weird. Very much "early days" for stereo cuts, but still sounds good.

I bought this last night and it arrived today. Spinning it right now and my copy sounds good. Not mind blowingly good, but good. Slightly warped but no surface noise.

For that price, definitely worth it.
 
Interesting how the colored vinyl versions in this sale are often less expensive in most cases than black vinyl. Maybe less good reviews of the colored pressings than the standard black?

And I realize many of us don't collect CDs on this thread, but the 8 x CD Lee Morgan (and Bennie Maupin) Live at the Lighthouse for $26 seems like the best deal of the bunch. For those who have not heard them, these recordings are amazing.
