Springsteen’s masterpiece. Obviously he’s made brilliant records and while there’s nothing wrong with BTR this has the edge. I know he wasn’t happy with the production at the time but the sound on this has only got better. Every track is great, all been played live , it’s an absolute classic. Every home should have a copy . This is an excellent pressing too .

Edited 3 years agoDead quiet vinyl. Slightly rolled off high frequencies and a slightly more narrow soundstage compared to the US WLP (TML lacquer) which still reigns king for Darkness (if you can find a clean copy). I think they may have been trying to tame the sibilance in the vocals that plague the recording a little (or it's possible Japan had a slightly inferior source tape, assuming this is different mastering from the US version). So if you find that to be a problem on your system for the title track or Racing, this might be your pressing. But this is a really nice listen as well. Plenty of punch to the drums and bass. When Garry comes in on Racing followed by Max's toms, and when Max hits that double shot on his snare in Darkness, it just explodes! Nice midrange here as well.
