Found a good-condition used copy in a local shop for $7. Pressing is pretty decent, but is certainly not a sonic masterpiece. I have no other pressings for comparison, but it is a bit thin on the low end, and the high end can be harsh (but hey, it's the Pretenders). That said, I have no serious complaints given the price. -
I was given a copy from a family friend. Never knew much about them other than hearing the hits on the radio. Most of it is really good, with good bits of guitar and keyboard. There are a couple songs that aren't so good, but overall this grouping of songs is really solid. -
