Find a nice copy of this pressing if you can! Great dynamic range!

I found a clean copy of thus album today it's not cheap but nm I've been looking for an original pressing for over one year.
So to day I played it for the first time in 30 years.
Wow crazy good vocals guitar detail and keyboards.
Very open stage so impressed by this pressing it was years ahead of it's engineering techniques used on vocals mix especially!
It's as though Bowie had a golden microphone!

Any body know what pressing has side a ARL1-0576A -1oly and side b - APLI0576b7e or am i going mad?
captatkins Feb 9, 2015
Which edition has the dog balls on the cover?
genezyp_kapen Feb 1, 2015
Is this pressing ends with locked groove on side B? I've never heard of it but Wikipedia says it does
Wobbers May 26, 2014
Don't understand the above reference to "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered" - can't see this on the associated images nor on my copy either?

My fav bowie album aswell and lodger
RobinBarstud Dec 13, 2012
My favourite Bowie album and also probably of all, with Candidate as my number one DB track anywhere. Made more amazing by his musical contribution as well as an incredible vocal performance ("I'm in your way and I'll steal every moment" - 'Sweet Thing').
