Damn what a loud and intense pressing! This is the best I’ve ever heard this record. The EQ is cranked to 11 and actually screams from the tweeters, yet has a full low end and deep 3D sound. This is a ‘72 Presswell (PR) I picked up on a whim since I have never been a fan of the thick muddy sound of my CDs. But now I understand the raucous vibe of Exile, perfectly captured on this first pressing. Highest recommendation!
Final Grade: 3.9
