    Wow!!!, Just Scored A Completely Mint Untouched Original Copy And It's The Best This Album Has Ever Sounded To Me. Absolutely Massive Behemoth Sized Sound Gushing Out The Speakers. Regardless If You Do Or Don't Love The Songs Or The Overall Overblown Brick-walled Production Style You Can't Deny This Cut Of Vinyl Is Incredibly Powerful With A Great Wide Open Soundstage That Lets The Music Breathe A Tad More Than On The CD To My Ears. I've Always Loved Be Here Now, It's A Perfect Loud & Proud Brew Of Oasis Anthems And Every Song Is Killer. Listening To This Was Like Falling In Love And Discovering This Album All Over Again. If You Are An Oasis Fan This Is A Must Own, An Absolutely Essential Purchase.

        THIS is the version of "Be Here Now" to get. It sounds as close to what they wanted it to sound like. I have some reissues and CDs of this album as well and there is NO question this is hands down better than all of them. As the years have gone by "Be Here Now" has easily become my 2nd favourite Oasis album after "Definitely Maybe". It's loud----LOUD, and really great!! If you love this album, make sure you get these while they are still relatively affordable.

          Well, this seems like an absolute marvel to me, the bass and drums base has the sound of some records from the '70s, in the songs where there is not so much wall of sound everything shines, the acoustics, the voice, the percussions and in the songs where there are hundreds of guitars are all offset by how thick the base sounds. The vinyl itself has no distortion, it is very quiet, the pressing is fantastic, the cover and inners are top quality, worth every penny.

            As loud as oasis can do it, but I love de hi frequencies in this! Maye it's the best way to listen BHN. I love it!! Way better than the horrible silver anniversary edition (I own that too, only for collection). Get this one!

              I have this one. It’s mint because I never play it. Not a great album at all unfortunately. It still even smells new!

                Bought 2nd hand off ebay in less than good condition. Massive rocker and wall of sound, they threw everything at this and boy can you hear it. Have a few beers and enjoy

                  Wow - I know Oasis recorded with a certain amount of distortion, but my pressing is so blown out it's almost unlistenable...
