    One of my smoothest records yes mastering has some moments but it’s so quiet on the sound stage and always will be one of my fave albums they nailed this a pop culture album right beside aquarium by Aqua. Must have for anyone but especially fans!

      Does every copy suffer from a quiet, high-pitched squeal in the left channel between A1 and A2? Having googled things a bit I think it might be a mastering error called "chip squeal" that for whatever reason wasn't picked up by the test pressing but I don't think it's a particularly common problem because in the couple of thousand records I've owned or still own I've never heard it anywhere else. I bought this LP aged eight in 1996 and was really, really confused by this thing that obviously wasn't part of either song and wouldn't go away. Though on the whole the album sounds alright (20 years and several turntable upgrades later) I don't think these were ever the best pressings because I there were LOADS of skips on side A when I first got it. These gradually cleared up because I basically wore out the record but the next album had the same problem on both sides!
