THIS IS THE ORIGINAL BOB LUDWIG MASTERING; HIS INITIALS (R)OBERT (L)UDWIG ARE STAMPED IN THE DEAD WAX / TRAIL-OFF VINYL ON BOTH SIDES OF THE VINYL. ALL THE WONDERFUL ELEMENTS OF BOB LUDWIG’S TRADEMARK MASTERING STYLE ARE HERE: INCREDIBLE CLARITY AND BALANCED CHANNEL SEPARATION, VIVID AND SPACIOUS ”AMBIENCE” SOUND, AS WELL AS WIDE DYNAMIC AND FREQUENCY RANGE OF THE SOUND SPECTRUM. AS IS ALMOST ALWAYS THE CASE WITH BOB LUDWIG’S MASTERINGS, THE BOB LUDWIG-MASTERED PRESSINGS OF THIS ALBUM ARE CONSIDERABLY RARER THAN THE REGULAR, NON-LUDWIG COPIES OF THIS ALBUM. ORIGINAL GATEFOLD COVER, MADE OF THICK CARDBOARD (AMERICAN STYLE). ORIGINAL "TEXTURED" (CRUDE FINISH) COVER. THICK, HEAVY VINYL PRESSING WITH THE FIRST MATRIX NUMBER IN THE TRAIL-OFF VINYL (DEAD WAX) SIDE ONE READS - ST1-132-C2#3 IAM [Inside A Triangle] RL. DEAD WAX SIDE TWO READS - ST2-132-C2 #4 IAM [Inside A Triangle] RL. CLEAN, WEAR-FREE LABELS. THIS IS THE ORIGINAL, AUTHENTIC, FIRST U.S. PRESSING.
COVER: EXCELLENT (EX)
VINYL: VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+)
- HAS SOME VERY LIGHT SURFACE HAIRLINES AND SCUFFS FROM THE SLEEVE, BUT THEY APPEAR FAIRLY INSIGNIFICANT RELATIVELY TO THE OVERALL CONDITION OF THE SHINY VINYL.
