Notes

Audiophile Series, pressed in Japan on virgin vinyl.
Issued in a gatefold jacket with gold series emblem embossed on front cover.
Issued in plastic outer sleeve, with series sticker enclosure and "Presse au Japon / Pressed in Japan" sticker.

Jacket variant to Breakfast In America.

1/2 speed cutting from the original stereo tapes on the JVC Cutting Center audiophile half speed mastering system by Darrell Johnson.

Printed on back sleeve:
Audiophile Series
The Audiophile process produces a superb master from which this record is manufactured on the purest possible anti-static vinyl. The cutting of the master from the original stereo tapes is performed at half the normal speed, the velocity of the cutting stylus being dramatically reduced results in a more faithful cutting of heavily modulated ages and the general extension of the frequency range.
A&M Records' Audiophile Series provides extremely high fidelity sound reproduction, remarkably clear and distinct, virtually free of surface and background noise.

Reviews

    I used to have a beaten up first press but have nothing else to compare this against, but this is a phenomenal sounding record!
    • AVStefan's avatar
      AVStefan
      Superbly engineered! Well balanced, dynamic and very crankable. Not a hint of sibilance.
      If anything, side 1 is a bit too warm but side 2 comes alive even more.
