    After many years sitting on my shelf, I revisited this album and yet it sounded just as great as when I purchased this way back in '85. A definite album to have from Level 42 and a timeless classic......don't get fooled by the 'wobbly' vinyl as the mastering is excellent!

      outstanding sound quality, great album but that sound, so good.
      one of the records that you can turn up to 11 without any breakup.
