Walk Don't Run (blauw vinyl)

Dropping the needle on this "Castaway" blue vinyl, the color is even more vivid than I expected from the mockup. The sound quality is crisp and clean, especially through the bass-heavy sections. I've already played it through three times.

The pressing is clean with minimal surface noise, which makes a big difference for a compilation like this. Was hoping the gatefold sleeve would have more detailed liner notes, but the audio quality more than makes up for it.

The blue vinyl looks sharp in good light, but the pressing has a bit of surface noise between tracks that I had to adjust for. The record itself plays fine overall, though I wish the sleeve had a bit more info about the artists.
