    I gave it 2 stars because I really really enjoyed the music. That being said, the pressing is pretty bad. Noisy on side A and bad skips on side B. Pretty muddy midrange everywhere. I got it for super cheap and enjoy the music so I may pop it on from time to time but definitely won’t be using it to show off my system to friends

      Played it once and it had some noise. Gave it a quick cleaning and it cleared up 90% of the dirt. One more cleaning and it’s great. I understand some people may have gotten a bad pressing but I think some people should stick to cds. Cds are great too! Who cares. We get too far up our own arse about our hobbies. But I digress; great album with some of the best music Sturgill and company have put to album. Brace for Impact is a gem.

        10 comments about this album and none about the music contained ... why are you buying this music if you aren't interested in the content?
        It's a fantastic country music album and yet none of you mention this ... Why?

          My copy is not great, but, unfortunately, I've seen worse. The background does not have constant noise, but there are plenty of pops/clicks/crackle throughout, even after cleaning. 2M Bronze. These are mostly hidden during the songs, but do make an appearance every now and then. The record and cover look really cool. I'm not sure I would say to avoid this, especially since it is so cheap, but realize you aren't getting an audiophile pressing.

            Ouch. This is not a good pressing. Even after a thorough cleaning, it has background noise throughout, and the sound quality is poor. I wish I could like this more, but it is a muddy sounding mess.

              Random question, but that is Sturgill on the cover right? The short hair is throwing me off.

                My first copy had defects that could be heard in playback through the last 3 tracks on side 2.
                I returned it and got a perfect beautiful sounding copy. Excellent pressing overall for the new copy.

                  Gorgeous pressing, but honestly my copy is pretty noisy, even after cleaning

                    EDIT: After playing the A side I noticed an extreme amount of gunk had collected on the stylus. I cleaned it and played B side and noticed some improvement but still got some fuzzy collection. I then decided to to a deep clean on both sides. This has made a HUGE improvement. This record came EXTREMELY dirty. I shouldn’t have rushed the initial cleaning, it’s now fairly quiet and crystal clear. Back up to 5* for me.

                    Very disappointing, this is easily the worst sounding record I have in my collection, including original well used pressings from the 70’s. After a wet cleaning with LADS it crackles and snaps throughout. Vocals are super muted and buzzy. About the only thing that sounds decent is the bass. Orto Blue 2M. I’m only giving it 3 stars because I love the music.

                      My copy is very quiet, plays through perfectly fine with an Ortofon Blue. Great album!
