    This soundtrack sounds pretty good. Nice balanced mix. Quiet vinyl.

      Two more questions: Is anyone aware of a version like this one, but with a mistake where the side 1 label was affixed to both sides...no side B label? I have one like this. And, should I create a separate entry for this?

        In the "Barcodes and Other Identifiers" section it says "SE-518..." on the first two lines. Is this correct, or should it say "5E-518..."?
