    I got two copies of this and both had serious manufacturing issues as follows - several tracks had a scratchy hissing quality - clearly a problem with the mastering to vinyl or whatever. I know this music inside out and it is not merely the nature of "lower quality demo recordings" as some might think. It is clearly a manufacturing or mastering issue and after getting two copies I gave up and just assumed all copies must be the same. I had no such issue with the similar Pleasure Principle release.

      Music cannot be faulted, and the sound quality is good. However both my discs were warped (2nd LP worst). They were both well-centred and do play ok, but disappointed so badly misshapen from new.
