    I have to agree with all of the previous reviews which led me to tracking one of these down. This is without a doubt the best I’ve ever heard this album, and is an excellent alternative to shelling out for an original. At the price these are at now, it’s an absolute steal.

      sounds wonderful with my mono cartridge!

        Easily the best and most affordable version of this album available to those who can't get a OG

          Fantastic-sounding LP, with dead-silent vinyl. Another alleged AAA triumph from OJC mastered & pressed in the mid-1980's. Hard to believe, but this hot-wax was bought brand-new-in-the-shrinkwrap for $4.99 back in 1984 & has survived with it's fidelity intact for nearly 40 years...
