Vinyl exchange update

An update on the exchange of the poor quality vinyl re-issues of Closing time, Nighthawks at the diner, Small change and The heart of Saturday by Kings Road Merch:
(....)  Tom has approved Small Change, Heart of Saturday Night and Closing Time acetates. Nighthawks is close to done. We have also heard the acetates here and compared them to the original pressings, and we can unequivocally say that this is what the initial product should have been. This is what everyone expected when this project began over a year ago so your patience will be rewarded.
