    Very good sounding German issue. No distortions noticeable, all tracks fine.

      My copy of this has noticeable distortion to bass frequencies in 'Don't Let It Show', especially at about 2:30 mins in where it totally distorts in an unpleasant way. I thought it was my setup, but it was the same with another turntable. The other tracks seem ok, but I don't have a particularly amazing set-up, or ears.

        Picked up my used copy from my local record store. LP sounds amazing after a wet clean - better than most of my newly bought records! Great Album great pressing

          Very poor sound. Is that the reason for its price?
