    My copy is a just decent mastering, Dynamic Range 11, any dynamic range value below 11 is a victim of the loudness war.

      New batch from 2022 : 2 LP are warped, the sleeve is also in weird shape. The inner sleeve are destroying by itself when you remove the disc for the first time. Look like a cheap reissue. Sound is good.

        3 sides are round 10 min., fourth 15-16. Should have been a single lp, or cut at 45 rpm

          Great pressing. My copy is on orange vinyl. Crisp. No popping, dragging etc
