Free Music Review: Finally! A Version That Does Justice To a Classic!
Hit: 4 Stars
If you had seen my earlier review of the "remastered" version of this cd you'd get the perfect example of how "sometimes, bad is REALLY bad" Sports but thankfully our mlps expert friends from Japan have finally set things right to some extent with this mini-lp sleeve replica version of an all-time classic album. The remastering is no lie on this version as the sound quality is excellent although I still question the need for the bonus tracks which end up detracting from the overall enjoyment of the cd. Perhaps I could live with the 3 live tracks as they give us a glimpse of what the band was like live but do we really need 2 session takes of "The Heart of Rock and Roll" and "Walking On a Thin Line?" The powers that be should really make some effort in future releases to ensure that the bonus tracks are there for a reason and actually add to the overall enjoyment of the cd instead of just being filler of cd space!
The mlps design also leaves much to be desired having been poorly assembled with poor quality thin cardboard that looks as if it will come apart soon when the glue gets old. For good quality mlps design see the ones done for the Hall & Oates and The Band series as good examples. This is a very pricey version though and while the excellent sound quality goes a long way to justify the price the inferior mlps design surely does not. The insert with all the lyrics in English and Japanese and the inner sleeve that very faithfully replicates the vinyl version is a nice treat though.
Sound quality wise, the mlps versions of both this and "Picture This" their two best ever albums are vast improvements over any prior cd versions though and if you don't mind paying more for poor mlps design then this version of the classic album is for you.
