The Human League – Dare

My pressing is outstanding. Flat, super quiet. Sounds excellent.

To make it short, this is all I lived for in 1981 @ the age of 17..... It gives me goosebumps still today! My eternal love: 'These are the things that dreams are made of'! It took me years to discover that the instrumental 'pure electro' versions of the League Unlimited Orchestra are even better, though lacking the emotional vibes.

Get Carter is a cover version of Roy Budd - Carter Michael Caine film soundtrack

Bass on Sound of the Crowd is impressive. This is early electronica at it's finest.

I have the same gatefold as everyone else, but the pressing is quiet and no crackles. Plays fine.

Just did an a/b test against an UK original. This one wins hands down. It’s cut really hot!

I've owned the 2003 CD since around 2003 but I've never been happy with the harsh, bright sound that was typical of CDs from the 2000s.

I finally got round to getting the original vinyl. The difference is night and day. If you love this 80s classic, the original vinyl is the only way to listen to it as the CD sounds like crap.

The artwork is also great to look at when it's 12" x 12" in size.

The inner gatefold photos of my copy show Susanne Sulley on both sides instead of Sulley on one and Joanne Catherall on the other. Another sign perhaps of a 'sloppy' re-issue. Worth noting?

Just brought this 42 year old piece of vinyl home and found that it is translucent. Very cool! Sound... great. Nice mix. Good balance.
