    Very grateful for this original master copy. All the compression and artifacts in the original ruined the listening experience for me, but thanks to this master I can kick back and relax knowing that I'm hearing this as Lou Reed intended. A true feast for the ears.

    Kidding of course, but I found this sealed at the local thrift. Suit yourself to whoever donated it, because noise music is pretty damn neat, and this album is genuinely part of that history.
