Can anyone supply the original LP's matrix etchings please?

As far as I know this is a legit reissue.

does anyone know if this is another bootleg straight from cd version?

Comment below I find suspicious. You're saying a counterfeit version almost two decades later sounds better than the original?

Bullshit.

Well I just got a copy of the Music on Vinyl Version of this release which is a single LP($30 ouch) compared to the double vinyl version and I was hoping this version would be much better than the original, I personally own all the version and the double vinyl Japanese is much warmer and has more depth, I dont know what the source is for all of them but the Japanese double Lp IMHO is a listening experience. The bottom end is much more warp and deep. Also you get all the bonus tracks and I dont think it cost as much as the original or the new reissue which was probably taken from CD as well. Whatever the case maybe, its a monumental record.

Yeah, this is probably from a CD, but who has the $200+ for the original? I still prefer the large sized artwork and I only had the CD before so until I hear the original vinyl (which is doubtful at those ridiculous prices) I won't know how "horrible" the CD master sounds.

Oh yeah, if you like vinyl mastered from CDs and pressed onto inferior vinyl than you should indeed go for this. As an owner of the original release I had the chance to play it back to back with this counterfeit but... make up your own ears. But I doubt that Happytheman even saw or played this thing because otherwise there would be no denying that this thing IS illegal. You can see it on the strange green-ish cover that simply looks cheap and you can hear it. Don't spend a lot of money for this - it is nothing more than a CD on cheap plastic

This thing is nothing but a cheap counterfeit made from a CD, it looks and sounds terrible, even has "Made In England" printed on all four labels.
