    definitely what i would consider a walmart record; mine came with the label off-center and a slightly dirtied up white compared to a perfect white (has spots of darker wax.) otherwise sounds decent to me.

      Compared to other commenters, my copy is very flat and sounds nice. Was a bit dirty, but nothing that a good clean couldn’t fix.

        Hole is off center, which makes everything after the 3rd track on each side sound draggy and terrible.

          Not the most dynamic sound. It’s okay if you don’t have a better version to play.

            Sound quality is okay, maybe a tad compressed, but not enough to be considered "muddy" I've never heard an original pressing, so I doubt this is a legit comparison.

            Unlike others, my copy is flat as a pancake and sounds perfect...

            ...but UNFORTUNATLEY, my copy was so caked with dust and static from the sleeve that it was almost impossible to clean. I was able to get it clean enough to listen to, but it still skipped on the first few seconds of "Girl U Want".

            So my verdict is proceed with record cleaner in hand. Trust me, you'll thank me later!

              From 1980, the tomato hatted lads are on this RHINO reissue in 2020...All white VINYL...For me, that is my least desirable LP color...No 180 gram here but it does contain "Whip It" and several other of Devo's early on hits...The B&W inner sleeve let's you write to the DEVO Club...Oh boy! They are treating their fans so right...

                Found a new & sealed copy today in the wild. It couldn't be flatter.

                  The record was warped, I don’t recommend this edition. Other people have same problem.

                    Warped, but playable. Sounds great. Still nothing bothers me more than a warped record. Don’t mind minor cases, but this is a rollercoaster.

                      Is this master better or identical to 2016 red blue white release?
