Ben Howard (2) – The Burgh Island E.P.

Beautiful pressing. Dynamic and full. Pretty noisy, Could've been 45RPM, but sounds great nevertheless.

Two copies with a lot of scraches on tracks 3 and 4, so disappointed. The third is on the way.

From my perspective, this version sounds reasonably good to my ears. However, I don't think it's as great as the standard black reissue. Unlike the standard black reissue, this one has slight background noise in the quieter parts. I also got a little skip on the first track. Don't get me wrong, this version is worth having in your collection. However, if you had to choose between the two reissues, I recommend the standard black reissue. I hope this helps someone.

Pressed to perfection. The music is dynamic, loud, clear and deadly silent in the quieter parts. Track two, ‘Oats In The Water,’ is my personal favourite.

Did someone compare the 2 versions with each other? I’m wondering if there’s a difference in sound quality

Still wonder: is it total of 5000 copies of black and clear versions, or 5000 copies of each version?

Just opened my transparent one. Played it and it has a tiny nick at end which produces clicks. Absolutely fed up of getting damaged brand new records. Compared to pressings from 60s to 80s, modern pressings are absolute rubbish quality. It's limited numbered and I think it has now sold old on the website, so no point in trying to return it. For £29 this is a bit of a rip-off.
And why single-sided? Put two tracks on each side at 45rpm instead of the 33rpm to get a much better sound.

Where do we get this version? I only see black one everywhere.

Are there 5000 of black vinyl and 5000 of transparent? Or it's 5000 in total?

Excellent, long awaited pressing. Awesome quality and clear sound comparable to the 10th anniversary "Every Kingdom" repress.
