I do have one of theirs on vinyl, I think it's their second album, the one with "Pick up the Pieces". Not what you expect a white Scottish band to sound like :) There's a lot on this one Barry, double CD with 35 tracks. I got it at a car boot sale a few years ago, so I won't have paid more than a quid. Can be had for a fiver on Ebay.Quote:

Hi Steve, I have a uk 1980 copy, very thin vinyl, as many were then. I have just done a short comparison of the two, the 1980 version, to my ears has a bit more energy, the half speed master has a bit more depth to the sound but not huge differences between the two. I only bought the new version as it was on offer on Amazon France. I have a few other Half speed masters, in general if you have a good, clean original it will be hard to beat. I really should do more comparisons. In many cases. It will also be down to who has done the mastering, one of the reasons I have a few “audiophile “ copies of my favourite records.Quote:
