    I enjoyed the isolated vocals, but not going to pay $35 for digital recordings on vinyl. This is a curiousity release and pressing on recycled and colored vinyl is risky for a "quiet" recording like this. Why suffer through surface noise and snaps and pops that will come later to litter the acapella? This is a digital "extra" or die-hard fan vinyl release. You can get $9.99 of 20 tracks (orig and isolated) at her website in the U.S.
    That said, after watching a few "how we made this song" videos, I find it difficult to NOT hear her delivery as a digital collage, combining many takes of each song, sung 20 or 30 times to get it "right." No need for auto-tune. Selecting the best delivery and stitching them together sounds nearly as artificial. At least she didn't take 10 years to get the album done like David Sylvian DeadBeesOnACake... but I digress. I guess I'd prefer a rougher, fully sung version with some harmonies and effects added. Hope she does an "unplugged" session, stripped down to 3 or 4 instruments and her singing select songs start to finish.

      The vocals were NOT isolated in most of the songs, you get whispers throughout most songs, only songs that were well isolated were wildflower and birds of a feather. Its good to have for a Billie collection though

        Fun to own, sounds good, my copy came with a bubble and some hairs in the pressing

            purchased on RSD; sounds really great! this pressing is perfect for following along on an instrument, of course! just a bit upset it didn’t come with the gatefold the repress has

              i love this record, but… you can hear some instrumental during lunch / chihiro. however skinny’s isolated vocals sounds heavenly.

                  Wow, this sounds incredible. So crisp, clear and dynamic with no surface noise that I detected. I wasn't sure if I was going to enjoy the isolated vocals but as a big fan and Hit Me Hard And Soft is such a phenomenal album, I decided to get the isolated vocals and so glad I did!

                      It's stunning. This may be the way I enjoy this album for the next while. Pressing is decent
