    This album is a true classic, and is essential listening. However, this 2005 version/edition from Rhino is re-mastered way too loud and compressed and squashes all the music's dynamics.Try to find the 1995 Infinite Zero version. While you're at it -- get the same label re-release of Solid Gold/Another Day Another Dollar!
