Edited one year agoMy copy has a lot of rotational surface noise during the first song on Side 2. This type of noise really ruins a record like this, where the music is frequently punctuated by silence. I will request another copy. I do think the record sounds good and it's very enjoyable music.

Fantastic pressing of this 1988 classic pressed on orange vinyl with the original blue Jive label.
My only issue is that you need to drop the needle with surgical precision because there is almost no deadwax on the outeredges. -
C'mon VMP! Where the heck is the printed innersleeve like the OG!? Here, it's just a generic black inner.
