    Excellent sound on this pressing, Has a wider stereo separation than the US version, which gives the music a richer sound. Esdel records did an amazing job on this one. If you're looking for a replacement copy, this would be the one to get.

      Fabulous pressing. Clear, lively and rich and cut quite hot, the music really leaps of the wax

        I've been very impressed with other Edsel 80's reissues, and this one is no exception. The songs have a lovely clarity to them, with the vocals and instruments nicely separated. Bass is excellent. A "prime cut" indeed!

            Bought this to replace a copy of a reissue on Rare Earth records which IMO sounded rather ‘thin’ and had the boring sleeve rather than the original g/f sleeve with scary artwork. Definitely an improvement with George Peckham mastering.
