Is this mono or stereo? My instinct tells me stereo. I wasn't certain as the front uses the mono cover art.
IDM Mar 30, 2020
Probably undistinguishable from this version . The 2001 release can still have the yellow sticker, it also says (c) 1997. CD print looks the same as well.
Black_Heat_Records Oct 25, 2017
One of best sounding CD in my collection, i own several copies of this album none of them can be compared to this edition.
Absolute must have!
ronipop Feb 7, 2017
This CD version sounds absolutely fantastic. Super clear, transparent, dynamic sound. I've heard later remastered vinyl editions and HD Tracks 24/96 resolution versions, and none of them can match this by far. Superior!
