My copy sounds amazing …. Dynamic…. Loud no pops…not sure why others are not having the same experience

I used to think that this was an excellent sounding reissue….. until I bought an OG … always try to source an OG over a reissue ….

Can't fault this copy, stunning quality and end to end Europe bangers, I the hype 38 years ago and it's still evident hearing this album back again.

This reissue sounds very good, but not great. It's lacking some clarity, dynamics, and bottom end. Perhaps this is a straight transfer of a 1985 mastering. Having said that, I really like the song writing. If you have an itch for 80s big hair arena rock I can't think of a better place to start.

переиздание огонь!

It doesn't get more eighties than this... Fantastic album if you're ok with this style. As for this edition, the remaster is useless and a bit on the loud/fatiguing side. But we get a complete booklet with full lyrics, liner notes and a few pics + 3 good live tracks from 1987. Not bad for the price tag.

Someone has to add in notes that it was released and given for free by Greek newspaper "Espresso".
