QRP pressing of "Tea for the Tillerman"

Got this first thing this morning and have a couple of spins through on it. This is simply INCREDIBLE! If this is what we have to look forward to from Chad and QRP, it's going to be a fantastic ride!

Probably the cleanest, quietest and most dynamic record I have heard. Hugh soundstage. I have several different copies of this LP and there are things I have never heard on this pressing.

Even if you don't like Cat Stevens, buy this to hear how records can and should be done...

Is it better than the original?
In which areas?
Or is it simply as dead as Folk Singer at MFSL?

..surprised at the level of excitement for this release..

Promotion, promotion and a new toy...
I agree, Tea for Tillerman always was a good sounding album, the mastering was done right and it was sold in endless numbers. So you can find a decent one for a few bucks... I would understand this "hype" when it would be an album like a RCA Living Stereo which is impossible to get below 500 USD (CR made that and got all the hate of the professional record dealers), but Cat Stevens?
Probably we discover in that Hype the audiophile hope for something better, a no noise pressing, without the usual defects even in the remastering process...
More to discover
