I know that MilesSmiles has posted positive things about the new album so I intend to purchase.

I have bought the new one on CD and yesterday bought the vinyl as well - comes with a special 7 inch single as well. Very nice clean pressing.

Spoke too early on that - side 2 was dreadful pressing and I am going to return it to the store.

On Silver!


Now where have heard that"No Tears to Cry" before sounds really familiar!
Despite the rave reviews I find it disappointing.
