Reviews
One of my all time favorites. I am commenting on this particular Euro version. My copy is super clean no surface noise or pops. The mastering is perfect on this. It sounds as if he just level matched and let the mix do the talking. Fantastic recording from the microphone placement to the mix and master. Great performance and production on this one. Great lyrics.- Perfect to listen to on game day! The way it is remains an all time classic
