After buying the cd when it first came out it’s a shame the running order has been changed for the vinyl issue ..nice sound though
Fantastic sounding pressing. Patrick W.Engel has done a great job mastering this for vinyl. The sound is clear with great detail and separation between the instruments. It’s an easier listen than it was previously on cd which I found muddy and lifeless compared to this. The pressing quality is also excellent with very quiet and flat vinyl.

I got a black copy--two copies, actually.
The first had some pretty serious dishing and warping on both discs. There was also clearly some no-fill on "There Are Many Sides."
The second copy of Guitar Noir I got as a replacement for the first, and it was much better--flat and quiet. However, it still had a little bit of no-fill on side 1, this time causing a bit of crunch in spots during "Take These Pearls."
Still this was totally bearable vs. the problems my first copy had.
I should note I also got the Dark Town reissue, and it has similar dishing and warping problems on both discs with the first copy I got, as well. I also got the black vinyl of that one.
I also got a replacement copy of Dark Town, and the second copy was also flat without surface noise.
This was odd with what happened this time around with both of these, as usually, the Hackett albums I've gotten on Inside Out have also been fine the first time round. Guess I just had a patch of bad luck...
Excellent album. Highly recommend! Wish it was on black vinyl, but to have another signed copy of his is an honor. My fourth. This man is a marvel! Keep going Steve!

Flat vinyl. Perfect pressing. No ticks,pops or surface noise at all. Excellent sound quality. Dynamics and detail the cd doesn't contain. A huge improvement on the cd.
Poly lined inners and sticker.
Another album that needs to be heard on vinyl to appreciate its content.
