Simply Vinyl gets a bad rap on this board but they have never promoted themselves as a purist audiophile reissue company to the best of my knowledge.

Complaints about pricing are from a US perspective but you have to remember it is a UK company and like-for-like comparisons aren't straightforward. I picked up many of my titles for around £10 (some less, some more). Classic Records cost £26+ here in the UK and what are the chances of getting a frisbee, judging by what others have posted on here? All the SV pressings I've had have been dead quiet.

I have some truly excellent sounding SV titles. %22Love Over Gold%22 sounds better than any of the UK pressings I have heard. FWIW, I have stuck to British artists as I expect SV will have access to the better sources.
