    One of the best sounding records in my collection. I'm thrilled that it has the original drum and bass tracks instead of those atrocious re-recordings. There's still copies to be found at Walmart, so do yourself a favor and pick one (or two) up!

      I would’ve thought this record with this color would’ve been like 50 bucks but it was 20 dollars

        Just found this brand new sealed at Wal-Mart for $21.98.
        Sounds great lots of dynamic

          It's much nicer than I expected. Clean sound. Contains original drum and bass parts. (Just still uncredited on the sleeve.) I bought it because I needed it in my life. :0)

            Sounds awesome. Looks awesome. But...another warped record. Isn't horrible but I sure am getting sick of lesser than quality in vinyl these days... especially for the price we pay. Cant wait for the stupid vinyl fad/trend to end. Then, maybe we can get better prices and quality. 🤞🏻

              Picked this up at a record store wanting to just get a repress of the album - cracked it open and didn't realize it was blue! Sounds really good and looks great. Not sure how or why but this was missing the Walmart Exclusive label, too. I've also got the Walmart pressing of Purple by Stone Temple Pilots - consistently surprised with how good these pressings are for being "big box" exclusives.

                Great pressing, still enjoy the original pressing more for the incredible dynamics and enormous soundstage it has, but this is a solid, cool looking pressing.

                  I don’t know why they cropped the cover, the cover looks fine on 2011 reissue, why not just use it again?

                    I'm honestly quite miffed that Ozzy gets to have the Jet labels recreated for his reissues, but ELO is stuck using the late-70's Epic labels on theirs. Not that this has anything to do with the reissue, but I had to vent about it somewhere.

                      Does this one have that awful later re-recorded drum track or is it the original?
