Good aren't they. My favourites are The Open Door and Fallen... not necessarily in that order of preference.

Gosh, ewemon. Just looked this one up on Amazon. Three used copies ranging in price from £46 to £117!!!!  It must be very special indeed.

ewemon thanks for that. I was just about to ask BigH what he thought of the re-master. Are you permitted to point me toward where I could get the Japanese SHM?

Steve pop over to cd japan (join the words together) and scroll down look for the cat no UICY 75769.

 

It is the first disc on the 5th line.

 

One word of advice when you buy from cd japan always choose the put in a plain envelope option. 

 

Can save you a lot of money.

 

Was going to say look at the reviews. It is considered by many audiophiles to be the best version available.

Gianluigi whatever you do avoid that one in your discogs link. The one I have mentioned has been mastered from the original UK analogue tapes.

Softmachine - 5 vinyl

 

I bought a few sh softmachine albums in the mid 1980's, problably just to look interesting because

did play them that much back then.

But now very enjoyable on my recently purchased thorens 160.
