    Great edition! Sounds rich and clear for my ears. Still available for 24€ on hhv.de

      Another colour repress of the common and still in print regular black 2014 release which itself sounds good but lets be honest here this isnt a truly one off mastering and release and to call it a limited edition when its just an all but identical yet riskier version (cant see frequent modern pressing defects as easily) of a common release is an insult to ones intelligence and to then have the cheek to ask over double/triple the £20 rrp for it when its only been out a week or so is further proof that this hobby is chock full of greedy swines and audiofools who in turn will fund them.

      Kinda pathetic really
