I agree with plaidzebra, this is a terribly mastered record. I own CD-sourced bootleg releases, in multiple genres, by labels like WaxTime and 4 Men with Beards that have better range and less compression. It's like wading knee-deep through a swamp filled with refried beans. I only gave it two stars because it's the kind of music I'd enjoy if I listened to a better release.

This is an essential classic of catchy, fractured and lysergic early-nineties psychedelia, but this vinyl pressing from Cherry Red Phonograph offers no sonic advantage over the original Creation cd. In fact, the 1992 cd actually sounds better, clearer. In addition, there's a tiny dropout inserted between the tracks (which blend together on the cd). Given their shoddy reputation I guess I should have known that Cherry Red could not be trusted to do a decent job. Nevertheless, the temptation to get this on vinyl was too great. This is the last Cherry Red product I will ever buy. They are as bad or worse than disreputable labels like Plain Recordings and 1972. I haven't heard the original Creation vinyl pressing to compare.
