The album itself is fantastic. A genuine classic. The problem is in the totally crappy re-mastering job. There is audible dropout at the beginning of "Glad" on the left channel, which eventually straightens out after a few seconds, but ruins the song. "Empty Pages" is really bad. It has a wow/flutter effect throughout that might have been in the original recording, but I doubt it. It basically sounds like cassette tapes used to sound when they would get old and worn out, creating a fluttering sound quality. I suspect the master tapes have gone bad here in spots, but it could just be my system. I listen on headphones, which might make me more sensitive to flaws. But, I think anyone thinking of this purchase might want to test a track via download before investing in the entire CD.
