It seems that the previous reviewer who paned this record did not receive the same pressing as Tyler Alexander and myself. If it was me, I would re-purchase the record so as not to miss out on such a great gem.

I was already familiar with the music from this album, I have the CD but this vinyl record recently received a mention in Absolute Sound magazine (issue 197 'Best Audiophile Recordings') hence I made the purchase. The first track 'The Man Comes Around' is a hair raiser for sure. I do not have a high end system by any means but WoW !

This Lost Highway release does sound fantastic and will be treasured for many years to come.

At the twelve bucks and change for a new record of this quality it is a huge bargain considering that some 'Audiophile recording' records cost three plus times more than this one did.American IV: The Man Comes Around

I'm not sure if the previous reviewer was listening to the same album, because this is one of the best sounding records I own. It is a double LP set, so the quality is amazing. Highly recommended.

This is a great album, and being one of Johnny Cash's last I am glad it was a vinyl record. I was happy with the cost, but they are getting more expensive as time goes by and harder to find....

Five stars for the music, but one for the pressing! I have just bought a new copy of this LP! And this is a review regarding it's physical conditions, which I think is very poor! Unwanted noises all over!
