    Look at the front cover and discover something pretty amazing. And I don't usually use amazing to describe much. If you focus you can see the artistic detail.

      I have a copy that I bought new on the week it was released, I think the Bob Ezrin production is great but it is a muddy or very dense sound , hard to make out some of the lyrics on noisier trax. The recent rerelease of 2016 is much clearer and sounds fantastic.

        My copy it's in NM condition and sounds great! Be aware that the production of this record could sound a little bit muddy or overloaded, maybe due to the use of reverb and instrumentation? I'm not sure and it's subjective, but i think it's just the way it was meant to be. Sounds a little bit like a phil spector sort of production in my ears.

          My copy has VG+ glossy vinyl. The sound is off. It is muffled and muddy. Sounds like an old cassette that's been in a car in the hot sun. Very disappointed I paid for this 77 UK.

            Great music, great sounding record if you can get yourself a VG+ or better copy. Mine has not been well cared for sadly and has crackles throughout, loud pops and in general makes for a difficult listen at times. Will be replacing with a better condition copy eventually.
