I've always disliked the tinny production job that Jon Landau did on the original and was pleasantly surprised to come across this picture disc that had been produced by Rick Conrad. The sound has bass and the tinny sound is completely gone.
Many years ago I fiddled around on Audacity and came up with a version that I found to be more listenable than the original but in future I will be playing this version because Rick Conrad has done a magnificent job on it.
I almost didn't buy it because it's a picture disc and most of them suffer from surface noise but, as the sticker on the cover says, this is a high quality picture disc.
I picked my copy up, recently, in a second hand record shop where I had some spare credit and only wish that I had been aware of this issue 20 years ago when it was released.
This version puts 'Back In The USA' at the top of the MC5 pile for me.
If you like the MC5: BUY IT!
