    Just a beautiful album from start to finish. Sonically, it’s quite good but I wonder if a remastering might do it wonders?

      Here we have a beautifuly sounding record and definitley one of the best records of '70s. This US pressing sounds very fresh, analog and crisp. This album could be a good project for Analogue Production, Impex, VMP, MOV or Mofi?
