-
Excellent remaster / pressing. As timeless as ever - Numan remains a very underrated artist. -
Phenomenal sound as to be expected from the Vinyl 180 label. To me, this is the pressing to own. I own a very clean original Beggars Banquet pressing and I still prefer the sound on this pressing. Highly recommended.
Playing on:
Pioneer PLX 1000
Ortofon 2M Bronze
Marantz 2230
Klipsch KG4 -
Will be reissued again on vinyl next month (October 2015) under BB's new sub-label "The Arkive" with what should be the same great mastering (by Loud). Hopefully with non-scratching inner sleeves. Replicas and Telekon as well but no Tubeway Army as of right now.
