    Indeed they are, I have the original releases of course but these reissues are essential IMO.

    Hi all,

    I bought the half speed mastering of Supertramp crime of the century in maybe 1980 or so. An excellent version very dynamic low surface noise.

    Regards,

    Martin

    Near mint condition. Those descriptions are bollocks, if a record doesn't play without clicks and pops it's not even excellent let alone near mint or mint. I've sent back records that dont play perfectly and are described as excellent.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Can't believe you came to that conclusion! Each to their own.
