If the ELP remasters are anything to go by then this will be a treat.

I'd get a copy but I am out of money and have already spent too much on remasters anyway.  But if you be a newbie and unacquainted with the album it is a worthy member for your collection.  :)
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Do you like the MFSL cd? I have A Passion Play on gold and notice a vast improvement in the sound. Off topic, but just curious.


Yes the sound quality is excellent and really clear. The only gripe i have with it is that the audio is too quiet, you really have to crank your system to the max to hear it well.
