القمر الجديد

This double LP has a really clean, quiet surface — no pops or crackles right out of the sleeve. Elliott’s fingerpicking sounds so present and intimate on the slower tracks.

I’d forgotten how warm this pressing sounds — the acoustic tracks on side B really shine through the vinyl. The jacket art is gorgeous too, exactly what I hoped for from this collection.

The packaging was sturdy and the vinyl arrived in perfect condition. I’ve been spinning "High Times" on repeat, and the sound quality is crisp with minimal surface noise. It’s a beautiful pressing that captures Elliott Smith’s gentle, melancholic voice just right.
