Anyone A/B tested vinyl vs CD? This album is 58 minutes long, it really should have been released on 2 discs. Volume and dynamics suffer when this much material is crammed onto 1 disc. This is evident with lots of 90s pressings. Machine Head's Burn My Eyes (55 mins) sounds really dull for instance.

I have a Canadian copy but it's not from Columbia House. It is identical except for a slight design variation on the back cover. The text is black and the barcode is in a white box. Also the fine print says 'Distributed by Sony Music Canada'. Also, it's odd that there is no mention of how the 'untitled' track messes up the numbering of the last few tracks. It's always bothered me about this cd and there is no mention of this in any of the notes or descriptions.
