    Apparently the original first generation U-Matic master was found and used for this and Local Hero soundtrack.

      This is the one you want. Sounds much more balanced and energetic than the MoFi

        Brilliant pressing. Got all the OG Dire Straits which are phenomenal, but this repress is really good
        • Musical_Mainline's avatar
          Incredible pressing. This album is simply stunning. The vinyl is super flat, and the sleeve is beautifully done. An amazing sounding album. Much better than my mint UK original. Get this copy.

              Great sounding record. And noone listens to vinyl for high frequencies NightHawk, we listen for dynamic range, which is excellent on this album!

                  Half Speed Master for "Superior high frequency response"
                  when the entire album was recorded digitally at only 44.1khz...
                  Marketing BS at it's finest.
