Reviews

    Sounds absolutely brilliant like most 90s pressings. no comparison to the new pressings which just sound dull in comparison! that is the true pressing!

      Does anyone else think the release of this album is a bit on the muffled/bassy side? Just wondering if I'm in the minority on that.
