    Extremely disappointed in this album. I had high expectations as this is one of Alicia Keys’ best albums but it’s extremely flat on the high and low end, arrived extremely dirty, and has some of the worse surface noise i’ve ever heard. The album is almost not playable

      In of the music, this is one of my favorite albums by Keys and practically a soundtrack to my junior year of high school. As for the pressing? It was ok. Not horrible but not the best I’ve heard or own.

        This is an atrocious release. I've gotten two copies, both have the same issue. Starting in the supposed-to-be-silent part of Disc 1, Side A, at the transition from " Go Ahead" to "Superwoman," there is noise in one channel. The noise is audible in that transition and continues through "Superwoman." It's readily apparent. As noted, it's not unique to a single copy. Don't buy this United Record Pressing release ... there are plenty of other options.
