As beautiful a celebratory vinyl issue sonically and otherwise as you'd wish. It's just a pity it came too late. Half Speed Mastered with proper 33 and one third playback instead of the dreaded (by me) 45 rpm.

It's not for the four extra tracks Shane good and all asthey undoubtedly are, it's for the overall half speed mastered sound quality which gives it a platform it never had before. This really is a must buy. No question. Ridiculous price but.....sorry, you owe yourself a treat 😜

That Cybot character is 'dangerous' for your pocket. I went on a mad one and bought the Then Play On half-speed double LP on his recommendation and while I was at it, I bought Ibrahim Ferrer (Buena Vista Social Club fame) Buenos Hermanos. The Ibrahim Ferrer is probably too elitist for his 'wild' tastes.

Vinyl woes:
First...
Big Thief - Masterpiece. Marred by noise all the way through. 😞
Returned to Tower (who exchanged no questions asked) and second copy was as bad! Real shame as it is a nice album.

Maddison Cunningham - Who Are You Now. Same problem.
Returned to Amazon for a refund.

Very annoying that brand new official releases are so bad. The Cunningham was on Verve and looked as if one of my second class kids had cut the album with dull scissors... The warble was SIDEWAYS!
😑
Ironically the Zavvii order all sound and play great and they cost a fiver each!
Rant over ... as you were...
