Mike, the attention to detail on these Japanese LP replica CDs is such that this actually has a replica plum label!

Superb!

 

I hope you remembered to give it a wipe with your Super Exstatic brush and a Zap with a Zerostat for full authenticity..

Yes, and I have a tiny Watts Dust Bug installed inside my CD player.

My Karik III sounds like it has one too.... Or at least compared with my LP12 it does...

Original Virgin pressing from 1979. Why? I love early Human League and this just popped into my head for some reason:

What an awesome album that is Tony!

I read a review of her forthcoming album of Cohen covers and in the absence of that being available I plumed for this as it has a cover of Everybody Knows.

 

Do you ever find an artist and wonder how you never came across them before.

 

A wonderful full album, can't wait for her new one.

Yep, they had balls alright.

 

Cut, along with Unknown Pleasures, Metal Box, Secondhand Daylight, Fear of Music, Reproduction, Entertainment!, The Return of The Durutti Column, 20 Jazz-Funk Greats, Lodger, Live at the Witch Trials, Dragnet, Mix-Up and others, is one of the reasons why 1979 was the greatest year for music. Ever.

That's a bold statement although UP(definitely my top ten of all time) and Lodger are landmark  albums.
