Laura, is that the 3 record Neil Young opus? Fremer says the sound is beyond incredible, rating at an 11 on a scale of 10 in true Spinal Tap style!

Yes it is. It does sound great. I saw them in concert in November. They played a good mix of the new stuff along with classic NY&CH tunes. Good quality pressing, very quiet.

It sounds very good. The pressing is pretty quiet, not as quiet as Neil Young's Archives vinyl releases or Psychedellic Pill, but quieter than most new vinyl I have purchased. I am satisfied with the quality of the pressing. As for the sound, I think it is excellent. I compared several songs to the CD and I hear more detail and depth with the vinyl. The bass is tighter, more pronounced and I hear lower bass notes on the vinyl that I hear with the CD. I'm very satisfied with what RTI has done with what I believe is a great album. The vinyl is superior to the CD IMO and definitely worth buying if you like the album. List price is $24.95 which is a decent price for new vinyl these days, especially 180g vinyl.

It's funny as how everyone is so concerned with first pressings nowadays.
Nobody ever thought about it when they first came out, we just bought them.
This would be a first pressing!

How true! And at $3.98 to $5.98, if we scratched it or didn't take good care of it, we just bought another copyand didn't care what stamper was used.

Every Sunday the NY Times had a coupon for a $4 record at a store in Rockville Centre. So, by the time I was 15 or so that where I went.

Straight up R'n'R album  released in 1972

Elephant's Memory was an American rock band formed in New York City during the late 1960s, primarily known for backing John Lennon and Yoko Ono from late 1971 to 1973. For live performances with Lennon and Ono, the band was known as the Plastic Ono Elephant's Memory Band.

As to the pressing not really sure. Here's the # on the run out   smas-1-3389-r  Apple Records

Rhino Records on 180g vinyl. Cut from the original analog master tape. Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering. I love this album and this is the best pressing I have heard. It kills the Sundazed reissue. Great artwork on the cover too. Highly recommended :thumb:
