I was able to get a copy of the Jaco Pastorius Criteria Sessions on LP this weekend on Record Store Day. The 2nd side has some occasional glitch sounds, as though there was a bit of a mispressing. There are enough of them to make it annoying, especially with the sort of mid-fi sound of the release, whereas the glitch sounds have more presence and edge.
I can return the LP for a refund and look for either another copy on LP or just get it on CD, which is a format easier to find this release. I don't find this an essential release, musically. It's just early Jaco with some ideas that would germinate into other releases later. I might just end up returning it for a refund and put my money toward something else (It was $22 plus tax).
Has anyone been able to compare the CD with the LP in terms of sonics? I believe the CD might have a cut or two that are not on the LP.

I finally listened to my copy tonight. I had no issues on side 2 so I'd say get another copy of the vinyl but that's what I mostly listen to anyway. I'm a big Jaco fan (because I'm a bass player) and agree that this isn't essential "hi-fi" listening but it is worth having just for having another Jaco recording when he wasn't all strung out on drugs. I haven't heard the digital version but given the option, I'd go with vinyl.

I found these to be a great influence in my own playing. I think much of his unusual selection of grace notes and segue phrases seem to have roots in these scales. Then there is his endearing use of riffs found in Musicals like Annie and television music like Carol Burnett.
