Cover NM/Vinyl M - Still sealed!!
2018 reissue on Earth Analog Records. This is the misprint version.
The titles for tracks D1 and D2 are swapped on the jacket and label artwork, with "Aphids" listed first followed by "Puppets".
The title for track B3 is written incorrectly as "Dreamboats" on the label, but written correctly as "Dreamboat" on the back artwork.
From the half-sheet insert card:
"Dear Listener:
This vinyl copy of Downward Is Heavenward was created from 1/2" analog masters that were sequenced and edited using a razor blade and splicing tape. The mastering process utilized only analog technology, with the lacquer for each side cut directly from analog masters. At no time were the stereo masters digitized.
This is not the cheapest, fastest, or easiest way to make a vinyl LP, but it's a process that I enjoy and one that provides its own special set of rewards. I hope that you enjoy the resulting unique listening experience. Making this special copy of Downward available for you, after all these years, and the enthusiasm with which it is being received, is humbling and more gratifying than you can know.
With warmest regards,
Matt Talbott
