    Best quality I heard so far. Very detailed indeed. Voice is clear and prominent. Not as dynamic as I wished but it is not a remaster so I prefer to hear this fantastic album the way it should sound. I wonder what drum kit he used as it sounds really artificial on Dance On. Not a bad thing at all as this album has to be the way it sounds and has this electric vibe. Good buy! Next to this Lovesexy is strangely underrated and one of those concept albums we do not get often these days. Prince was a genius and always ahead in time.

      I have both the original Lovesexy CD and the Japanese SHM-CD. Even though the SHM-CD is not a remaster, it is definitely an improvement and sounds better, clearer, and more detailed than the CD version commercially available in America. Could it sound even better? Sure. Hopefully, a proper remaster (not the loud, clipped re-releases that for remasters today) will be released one day, but in the meantime, the SHM-CD will do just fine. (The same goes for the Sign O' the Times SHM-CD: It sounds much better than the American version.)
