Reviews
- This is a great-sounding vinyl. I found it in a market in M- shape. Gave it a good clean and a spin and WOW! What a fat sound and my copy is dead flat and quiet too, The Vocals are up front and present and the music is perfect. Highly recommended. 5 out of 5!
- This pressing sounds so rich and dynamic, was absolutely surprised. I can highly recommend this version. Absolut joy to listen to.
- My version;
Matrix/Runout (Side A runout stamped & etched, variant 1): R/S Alsdorf 960888-1-A
Matrix/Runout (Side B runout stamped & etched, variant 1): R/S Alsdorf 960888-1-B - Really surprised how cheap vinyl copies of this are going for compared to how much more in demand her first one is. I'd say this album is just as good as the first!
- "Manufactured in Germany" it states on the sleeve. GEMA/ BIEM labels.
But is not categorised on discogs as a German pressing? Now, what is that ELO song coming to mind..?
