About this release
The original 2017 Unknown master tapes exhibit moderate dynamic compression, affecting outer groove wall tracking by reducing transient clarity.
Vinyl Specifications

Crate Digger Trivia
Crate Lore: During the recording of "Acoustic Hits," The Cure utilized a vintage Neve console, known for its warm sound, which was originally used in the 1970s at Abbey Road Studios, giving the album a unique sonic character.
