    Hard music, hard (cruel) words. As a teenager in 1986, I didn't even know about the existence of such a band and such music. I bought this album now to expand my horizons and I liked it - not with words, but with music.
    The sound is great - assertive, detailed. The stage is wide, the balance is even. The outer envelope is well made - the design is interesting. Inner envelope without antistatic. Inside there is a card for ing a digital copy. The disc is flat and heavy. The mass is quiet, I didn't hear any clicks. In general, the cover, disc and content are at a height of 5 out of 5. I recommend this album to the music library.

      I first owned this album in the cd format of the 'Rich Man's Eight Track' and I thrashed it. It's been 30+ years since I last played it. Playing this copy now blows me away. It sounds even better than I ed or expected. Buy it and play it loud. You won't be disappointed.

        On the B side of my copy, instead of "Fists of Love", it says "Fists of Live".Has anybody else noticed this on their copy?

          Worth replacing if I have original pressing in good condition? Is remastering noticable?
