    Just picked up. I think person before me professionally cleaned it. There is minimal surface noise and the sound level is normal. Some pops but the record is over 40 years old.

      Just got this pressing. Not much surface noise but seems very quiet. However I may be comparing it to more recent reissues/remasters. Everything is louder these days. Need an older press to compare.

        Does anyone else have this pressing? I'm wondering if it's just a bad pressing or if I got hosed on this purchase. This is a repress from Virgin International. The amount of surface noise is ridiculous, plus, this pressing is super quiet! I have to crank it way up just to hear it...which just makes the surface noise louder, lol. Tangerine Dream is amazing but they require near perfect pressings to be experienced the way they're supposed to be heard, imo. Then again it might just be my copy.
