    Pressing has some nice low end laid down by Dusty and Frank. Billy’s vocals and guitar come through strong center stage.

      Great pressing. Real well balanced, great bass, live guitars and vocal. Never heard this album like that.

        Anyone else side A sound kinda not dynamic and bassy. Side b sounds amazing. Idk if it was the pressing or my copy is worn out on side a or dirty. Doesn't crackle or pop really like a dirty groove.

              I still proudly own my original 1973 Canada LP vinyl ... I have a ed copy with ever so slightly different vocals ... "Jesus Just Left Chicago " the very first line is one good example ... Anyone else ???!! Just curious ...
              I just saw ZZ TOP here two weeks ago ... Awesome show 🤘😀🤘!!

                my vote for most delicious looking nachos on an inner gatefold.
