      Sounds bloody good! Warm, rich, clean wish all reissues were this good.

        I agree this reissue is excellent. She was the Queen of Funk and this album shows that she was not to be messed with even by Miles.

          No other vinyl in my collection sounds this amazing! Definitely purchase if you’re interested you won’t regret it.

            Short story: Highly recommend! Really clear pressing and awesome color (exact greenish clear tint of a glass coke bottle, hence the name). I am extremely impressed with the pressing quality, packaging, and level of detail fit for the Queen of F.U.N.K.!

            Long story: Extremely late but worth the wait! I pre-ordered this in June 2022 (!!!!) from LITA with a ship date of November 2022, and finally gave up on them and cancelled my order in July 2023 when they told me that all the colors I pre-ordered were no longer being pressed (????). LITA gave me a full refund. Now, in October 2023, I realized that my local record store has all of the pressings, so I drove over and grabbed one of each album and am really impressed with these pressings. Long live Betty Davis!
