    Super dynamic mastering on this one. Got to Sledgehammer, which I had only heard the single version of, and cranked it for the flute(?) intro, only to be ear raped by the loud intro. That being said, great album, great mixing and amazing mastering!

      This CD is in every house in America. If you cant find it in your house, you're not looking hard enough. Eventually you will find this CD somewhere. I promise you that.
