    Have yet to listen to a Monarch pressing so I can’t say if the Abbey pressing is inferior, but this is so far the best sounding version of this album that I’ve ever listened to! It’s far superior to Rhino’s 2009 release, not to mention the mid/late 1970s versions. One of most cherished albums, especially since I was lucky enough to find a copy that’s NM/M-.

      Does this press use the same metal work of Monarch? It has RH etched and It's loud.

        I love it, much better than 73 and Europe 2009
