[kj] The album proper sounds very good on a nice stereo, yes indeed

[death wish]

Good to hear people comin' round on this album. I still LOVE it and just had

My ears are kinda broke, but I do hear a lot that I wasn't getting before.

Has anyone seen a vinyl copy yet?

It's their best work ever, isn't it?

Me, I feel sorry for the nostalgists.
