      Favorite track on this is Johnson's Aeroplane - but every song is good.

        My copy sounds fantastic. Good dynamics and soundstage. (ten words)

          My copy has a gold foil label that says "Special Limited Edition Album Cover" on the front. It is also a promo with the gold stamped promo label in the middle of the front. Also has large B/W ATCO Records label sticker at the bottom on the front listing suggested cuts although none are marked. Cover is very minty. Spine has cat # ATCO 7 90160-1 . Great album in very NM condition.
