@bkeske: Uh oh. Have you opened the Burrito Deluxe LP yet? (Or is it used?). 4 Men With Beards are notorious for poor sounding LP reissues (low-rez digital sources, poor mastering and pressing quality).

Intervention Records has their repress of Burrito Deluxe scheduled for the 2nd quarter of 2022, mastered by Kevin Gray and pressed at RTI. Their reissue of the the first Burrito Brothers album is excellent (I have it and an original, bought at the time of it's initial release).

Ha! It was used, and actually got some of the higher ratings vs other releases on Discogs (including MOV), so took a chance. The pressing is fine, and pretty darn quiet. SQ-wise, it sounds fine, but to be honest, it has been years since I heard the original pressing, so it is very hard to compare.
