    Unsure how much I prefer this mastering to the 1990 CD.

    It has the tape hiss pulled back significantly and I've definitely been able to notice things I've never been able to, but I feel like a noticable amount of air has been removed

    The original CD has way more tape hiss than I would expect for a record from 1973 though. Did whoever mastered the original CD make the transfers with Dolby A or without? I don't know if I can name any albums from this era with this level of tape hiss and it's sorta out of the ordinary imo.

    This one is more compressed but I don't think you should worry abt that on this record.

    The paper for the booklet is a weird sandpaper-like material and got fingerprint smudges instantly
