Kris Holmes Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 try blue, because every black copy I've had has a slight static distortion on the lows & highs as a pressing defect. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Steve Edgar Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 try blue, because every black copy I've had has a slight static distortion on the lows & highs as a pressing defect. Reason why I said if it plays ok? took me a few copies of "Love Love Love" before I got a one that played without distortion too! The curse of Mercury / BlueRock styrene! steve Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
