Reviews
- Did not know this was half speed mastered,learnt by looking at SR in credits if it has a 2 under initials
- I remember the summer of 1979 very well. This LP had just come out and the Italian DJs had immediately picked up on the song Last Train to London. So on the radio they played it all the time. It didn't matter that the 45 rpm single didn't exist (crazy, how many would have sold that summer!) The other tracks weren't interesting, maybe they were considered too 'normal' or sounded 'old'. LTTL sounded incredibly fresh and groovy. I will never forget, in the trendiest disco in Milano Marittima, 'Pineta', the DJs played this track twice in a row, mixing it with pinpoint precision on two different turntables. Legendary. The audience on the dance floor went crazy!
- Amazing album! It reminds me of my childhood so brings back great memories. Well worth £20 and includes the poster which is a bonus.
- a classic album i was twelve at the time when it came out in australia the album survived but the cassette didn't
- Hi all. Picked up an upgrade copy of this the other day and realised later that it has a label mis press. There is no 'side 1' label, both sides have a 'side 2' label. All other features are normal. Anybody else have this issue?
