Anyone know of a good pressing of Stickey Fingers?

Mine is the original as I suspected.

FWIW

The MOFI is a genuine POS recording. I own a first release 1971 zippered gatefold copy and it is at best marginal sounding. Never heard the cassette or 8 track so this may be as good as it gets.

I also played my original copy of Exile recently and it is quite pleasing. Hlmiii says the only copy that is "OK" is the UK version. To his ears in his system perhaps, but the US version is fine with my gear. Better than Sticky Fingers, Beggars Banquet, and Let it Bleed but not as good as Aftermath all of which I purchased on release.

Aftermath is done really well and IMO may be the Stones' best sounding original release on vinyl. I've not heard any of the vinyl reissues and/or digital releases.

Hi Grant,
That's a good question. I bought my copy the week it was released here in the states so I'm assuming first release status.
If defining codes exist on the vinyl and/or jacket I'd be interested in knowing about them. Not only for this album but the major labels as well.

"Is there anybody out there?"
