Notes
This release has “Talk Talk” printed in standard font on center labels and a “Direct Metal Mastering” logo on back sleeve.
On the early european issue, “Talk Talk” logotype on labels is the same as the one printed on the 1982 debut single Mirror Man.
A mispress variant with a plain purple side A label, also exists.
A very similar version, with standard font logo on labels, has no "DMM" logo on back sleeve.
A later reissue, with “DMM” logo, has a different catalog number (038 1 57786 1).

Geniales Album, sehr gutes Mastereing bei dieser Pressung!
Mit dieser Pressung macht man nichts falsch. -
Edited one year agoDue to the DDM crystal clear sound and a harsh high end. A bit fatiguing to listen to at times but great to dissect all the instruments recorded.
-
Two examples of this 1986 pressing bought used independently, both with the same distorted beginning of the last track of side B o.O
