Well surfdog really botched this album on Vinyl , very poor quality pressing , very noisy , album came all scratched up & they compressed all the audio to fit 30 minutes per side , I have contacted the Companay & they do admit they compressed it to fit onto 1 lp instead of pressing it onto two ... a real bummer as the songs are stellar! but if you like me are looking for the Vinyl sound you won't get it here .

Worst vinyl pressing in the modern era! Do yourself a favor and buy it on CD, NOT VINYL!!! This album is 52:10, and in order to get the entire album on one LP, they decided to use unacceptably narrow groove width making for an INCREDIBLE amount of surface noise. You won't play this LP more than once if you are unfortunate enough to buy it, as I was.

That being said, the CD is fantastic! I wish I had bought it at Target the week it was released for $8.99, but instead I got ripped off buying the LP/CD combo for twice as much.

I recently picked up this LP right after I saw Brian Setzer Orchestra perform live. Man, what a mistake. I can't believe that this actually was released in such poor quality. I wish I would have read reviews on this pressing before I bought the LP.

Surfdog really really dropped the ball on this one. I've never heard a new pressing this bad! It sounded like somebody took some low bitrate mp3 files and then compressed them somemore and pressed them to vinyl. The sound is at a low volume, muffled, and lacks sound stage. I'm going to contact Surfdog and see if there are plans of a 2x LP repress in the future. I wish I could get my money back but that is a lost cause. At least I have the cd which sounds wonderful. If only the LP could have sounded this way.
