Most of my records are in excellent condition, but clips from noisier copies may be included
here in order to present certain pressing variations. Most of the clips were transferred under
identical conditions. However further level adjustments may be necessary for accurate
comparison. This page features more common pressings, and is a work in progress. Each
wav file contains a light audio watermark. Comment and critique is welcomed........Enjoy!

Super quiet Japanese MONO re-issue. Issued in both 1982 (M Matrix) and again in 1986 (D Matrix). Mistake in matrix and
catalog number use YEX instead of the correct XEX.

Great sounding UK original 1st press numbered issue. Second example is a non-numbered press. Probably early 70s.

Mobile Fidelity Box Collection. Pressed in Japan and released in 1982. The box and individual pressings sound very similar
to me. You can audition both on the Abbey Road page.
