    I own this version. Sounds great to my ears. For all those wanting bass on Motorhead records you won't find it. Lemmy purposefully wanted in sucked out from the mix. That's Motorhead and it still sounds great.

      Is this the actual first press of this album ever in the UK? Managed to score this in 2009 (when there was no vinyl resurgence yet) in absolute mint condition. Didnt listen to this until today - sounds absolutely great.

      I had some crappy re-issue on green vinyl which I did listen couple of years ago and that sounded like crap.

        Does anyone know if the new 2015 Sanctuary/Bronze/BMG reissues are any good?
