“The Quality Record Pressing is drop-dead quiet-as silent as the best Japanese pressings from the late 1970s-and the amount of inner detail released is simply astonishing…the sound is sweet, liquid and free of harshness and edge. The dynamics are mind-boggling. When Muddy takes it up ten notches to emphasize a point it’s positively explosive in a way the 33 1/3 version only suggests.” Music = 9/10, Sound = 10/10! — Michael Fremer, musicangle.com.
“How about a 45 RPM set from Analogue Productions’ recently launched Quality Record Pressings Facility, mastered by Bernie Grundman, in a beautiful gatefold jacket with extra sessions shots? It’s been ages since I’ve heard LP surfaces this quiet — as in dead quiet. The expense and effort that Chad Kassem and company put into this venture are immediately obvious. … Making music together bring this recording to life as never before. It’s by far the best sounding and most engaging version yet… analog lovers will be in hog heaven.” — Wayne Garcia, The Absolute Sound, May/June, Issue 223
