I don't have either, the 1 LP is definitely mastered at Sterling.. But the 2 LP doesn't have Sterling in the runouts although Cogs still lists them as the studio. I have a copy of the UK 2LP on the way so I'll let ya know although I won't have any point of reference...
It's 50 minutes of music so it could definitely benefit from the extra space, assuming the mastering is still good.
I have the 2LP. Can try to look up the deadwax today. I have the white vinyl copy and annoyingly it’s a mispress. They screwed up the track list and it doesn’t have Family Tree on the record
Can’t see any lacquer cutter info in the deadwax for the white 2xLP. Spinning it now though and it sounds great to me. Just bummed that there’s no Family Tree on it. Might be one of my favorite tracks on the album.
Yes that white mispress is one of the strangest ones I've heard of.. To be missing a single track is so odd. But glad to hear it sounds good. Did it happen to come in poly sleeves by any chance? Guessing no but, a man can dream...
@Mather I don’t remember about poly sleeves. The mispress was a huge bummer because I bought the last copy at retail from the label. They did refund all my money though…no clue about poly inners since I always swap them out but I feel like they weren’t poly
