Offcenter Disappointment

The sound quality and vinyl silence on this are fantastic, but it's offcenter!!! I'm really let down by that because "Straight From The Heart" was perfect. I'd hoped this would be just as good. But I think you've gotta get lucky to find a good copy.
Remastered Audio Excellence
5 out of 5 stars

This 24-bit remastered version, released 43 years post its initial launch, boasts incredible audio quality. The crispness, dynamic range, and blending of instruments are flawless. The soundstage is impressively spacious and profound, making the speakers feel almost invisible. There's no harsh highs or overpowering bass to deal with. Although there are some powerful bass notes, they're well-articulated and not muddy. Truly outstanding!
