    This is one of the best sounding records I own. I also own the 2014 Parlophone reissue which sounds great to but this is definitely the better one.

    The original mastering is wider, more dynamic and punchier. Absolutely love it. This is one of my treasured gems.

    2014 Parlophone reissue is an amazing sounding reissue tho! It’s just a tad bit compressed.

        The 2021 Matador CD doesn't have bonus tracks. So the note on top about all CD versions having bonus tracks should be modified.

          Could anyone recommend which would be a good copy to buy of this record and which ones to avoid? Thanks

            Great sounding 80s US vinyl reissue. Like anthrax—I don’t want to catch it.
