I’ve gone through most of the pressings, and this is by far the best one. The sound is perfect, with deep, rich bass!
I don’t mind the extra remix on "Air War," as some other pressings include this track as well. However, I’d recommend not paying more than £50 for this pressing. You can often find one in near-mint (NM) condition on eBay for a reasonable price. Back in the day, they pressed a lot of these.
Yes, it can be tricky to find a copy with a perfect sleeve and no creased corners, but it’s definitely possible if you’re patient. -
Edited 3 years agoIs it just not possible to find a copy of this that doesn't have some extraneous damage to the sleeve? Did the label hire a guy to make sure every sleeve was "creased" with "shelf wear" before shipping them to stores? Did people use these records as ax-throwing targets? -

What a glorious release. Bright and lively and intense like the brightest color in musical form. If I’m not mistaken the album was made using an Atari 2600, and it somehow with the work of these talented musicians became a unique piece unlike anything I’ve ever heard. Fresh and exciting beyond compare, in no way bland and thoroughly enjoyable. 10/10
