Ordered this at the beginning of January, finally arrived this morning... better late than never I suppose. Worth the wait? Really not sure. Value for money? Well you get 23 minutes of 'Echoes' on one side, and that's it. Just some psychedelic etching on side two. Not gatefold, just a simple sleeve, and no liner notes.
How about sound quality? Well they give it a go, half-speed mastering, and 'back-to-front' pressing (supposedly to minimise end-of-side distortion). But while the sq isn't bad, it does sound to me a bit 'closed in' and not very dynamic. Like what you might expect from a fifty year-old live recording.
Can't fault the playing though.

Just time to get in a bit more old Floyd before Mrs. P gets back.
