    Just a beautiful pressing. Holographic and wide-angled. The image is tall, wide and deep- full of detail and instruments you may never heard before!

          I found a clean copy of thus album today it's not cheap but nm I've been looking for an original pressing for over one year.
          So to day I played it for the first time in 30 years.
          Wow crazy good vocals guitar detail and keyboards.
          Very open stage so impressed by this pressing it was years ahead of it's engineering techniques used on vocals mix especially!
          It's as though Bowie had a golden microphone!

                Is this pressing ends with locked groove on side B? I've never heard of it but Wikipedia says it does

                  Don't understand the above reference to "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered" - can't see this on the associated images nor on my copy either?

                      My favourite Bowie album and also probably of all, with Candidate as my number one DB track anywhere. Made more amazing by his musical contribution as well as an incredible vocal performance ("I'm in your way and I'll steal every moment" - 'Sweet Thing').
