Sold

200-gram audiophile pressing by Quality Record Pressings (QRP). Track B1: From the film 'Deep End'. Track B5: From 'Revolussia'. This was Chad Kassem's flagship project - produced for multiple-market. The team at QRP intentionally used the UK gatefold (which they reproduced & added to, via in-house designer James Wolf). Textured paper inner spread, gloss-print exterior. They also did a facsimile of the original UK pink Island label. George Marino remastered it at Sterling, using the original Master [that Ted Jensen/Samwell-Smith had remastered at Sterling for the 1999 CD] & notes that Lee Hulko had previously employed at Sterling for the UK/US issues in 1970. Marino cut it using a Neumann VMS 80 lathe with a Neumann SX 74 cutter-head. (This was hooked up to a novel Ampex ATR-102, modified by Mike Spitz at ATR). Runout etched, STERLING stamped NM/VG++
