Vinyl, from the 2012 box set. I know there have been complaints about this one but it sounds OK to me (better than my 80s vinyl, although not as good as the mono CD).

On CD.
This is a fantastic album, alt. country at its finest--sweet, heartfelt and deceptively simplistic.Currently available on Amazon for 0.57p plus postage.

After three or four listens of all the albums in the 2012 Beatles Vinyl Box Set. This IMO is the best sounding of all the albums. I would rate the whole reissue as a '7 out of 10' and taking the fantastic book and the artwork etc into consideration good value for money.

Haim, I waited with bated breath to see who and now I know. For some reason the original post did not reveal the attachment until I replied to it.
