    Here we have great album by Dr Dre and this reissue sounds fresh, heavy, well balanced and crisp. Bass is very deep and heavy.

      I have one similar to this but the records are clear, and not a Target clear edition. Has the runouts 100% matching this and the cover on the back does not have 2021 year like the Target one, and matches this cover. The discs are clear though The NT logo actually has the T crossing down the center of the N. Sounds great though.

        Yo Dre, is the doctor and he def was operating on my ears cause everything was dope!!! I realizded I dont like doubles cause you have to change the reocrd often. But its ok Gfunk is one of my favorite and I can deal. Awesome pressing everyone should give it a shot No Cap

          This pressing is perfect. I was a little worried because of how cheap it was (considering it's a double), but the pressing is absolutely flawless. Highly recommended.
