Reviews
- A mixture of fake stereo and mono with track 5, 10, 11 and 12 in mono and the rest in hard panned early stereo. Search the Juno UK audio samples to confirm with your own ears!
The pressing itself has been done superbly flat and quiet and defect free. The sound on offer is pretty darn decent throughout too, but lets be honest this is not a high watermark of recording quality kinda record.
Recommended for sure though!! 
There's nothing wrong with the sound quality of this pressing, it's an excellent job.
This MOV (digital source ?) version doesn't sound really good. I have replaced it with the 1983 french "Chicago Golden Years " version, much better !- Is this mono? If there is stereo is it true stereo or fake?
Spectacular reissue with a very good vinyl pressing. Very happy with the purchase. I recommend it.
My example is warped and it has a lot of crackling noise on B1 and B2. So it will be returned.
I can not compare but to me this record sounds kind of strange. Voice and guitar are sounding transparent, threediminsional and rich. Other Instruments are mostly flat and dull. Its a bit like listening to two different sources at the same time. Does anyone if this is a known problem of the mastertape/s? Are there better issues?
