This is one of my go to snare reference albums. I love the dry, small booth, tea towel, classic UK/Ringo deal. Unfortunately to me the cd sounds awful due to mastering. Super bright in the 11-13k region. The vinyl is unbelievably good though. I really think Nigel Godrich, the players, the room/gear take Beck's good but not as great as people think songwriting to a radically better level. The tones and production choices are just fantastic. Far and away his best record I believe and, yes, the bass is stellar and HUGE on record. Classic Ampeg tone.
