There have been some complaints about the mastering on this release. To some extent I agree; some of the bonus tracks are not taken from the best quality sources and there are pops and clicks between some tracks. However, the mastering of the main album tracks is to my ears a vast improvement over the old CD so I think it is still worth getting if you liked the original. These remastered albums are always a bit hit and miss, which is a shame. I think the companies involved underestimate how good fans are at noticing when a remaster is not of the highest standard. -

Edited 11 years agoSadly, this reissue features a few dodgy transfers. Hey Mister Heartache [7" Version] has been lifted from a crackly 7" vinyl and You Came [Shep Pettibone US 7" Edit] sounds like a very low quality [64kbps] mp3. Disappointing.
