Customer Reviews
Excellent but beware this a 2 x 45rpm album!- By: David Wallace, 21 Mar 2008 I bought this album partiallly as I already know the band but also on the back of their peformance on the Jonathan Ross show a few weeks back which I thought was outstanding. I had also read quite a few positive reviews so I awaited the arrival of the album with quite some anticipation. So I was somewhat surprised by the low notes & slurry sounds when I actuallly got the album onto my turntable. I realised of course that the album was actuallly cut at 45rpm although there is no indication of this anywhere on the album or on the Amazon entry (Amamzon take note!). I rarely play 45s so I had some tweaking to do to get my player working at that speed. Once I did & I started listening my hopes of a good sounding & musical album were fulfilled & it seems like a disc that will become more interesting with repeated plays.
So I would recommend you give the album a go but not if your record player is 33 1/3 rpm only...
