Recommended on Vinyl:
Classic Records reissue. Earliest pressings were ticky, but I am told this issue was fixed in later pressings by Classic Records. There appears to have been a problem with the new "Quiex" vinyl in the early stages. The Japan AMJY series is quite good, too, but the Classic Records issue is phenomenal, like their pressing of IV. Just beware of the possibility that a very early pressing may have annoying ticks.
