    Breath taking Quality. This should be my demo Vinyl to demonstrate the clarity of sound that can be achieved.

      Very good quality on this release. Pressing is nice too.
      I made a needledrop of one of the tracks from this vinyl record - You can find it on the right side in the videos - Under the name: Suzanne Vega - Wooden Horse (Caspar Hauser's Song) (1987 European Vinyl)

          I remember when this recording came out. I was indifferent to Luka. FF to 2021 and I bought a clean copy because my wife liked the record. I just have to say that everyone involved with this record should be very proud of their work. It sounds fantastic! Well sung, well played, well recorded and engineered.
