Pretenders II

The vinyl feels weighty and has a nice, flat surface that plays without any warping. The 12-inch format really lets the bass breathe on tracks like "Talk of the Town." Exactly what I wanted for my collection.

Side A kicks off with such a clean, punchy mix that I kept flipping the record over just to hear it all again. The 12-inch format really lets the guitar work breathe, and there's zero surface noise on my copy.

The bass on this Pretenders II vinyl is punchy and clean, really brings the live energy of the recording into my living room. The 180-gram pressing feels substantial and plays without a hint of surface noise.
