The 2012 vinyl version is a nice reissue with beautifull sound on every side. It could be annoying that the speed is different on side C and D but I really don't care.. it only needs a little attention when you put it on.
Interesting that I just started to dig Madonna after 33 years. I never thought that I will like any song from her beside Frozen and a coulple others but the fact is that I just started to like this 20 year old album. The production of the whole stuff is amazing, and I just find it quiete funny that all the stupid album rankings put this record to one of the last places in Madonna's collection.
Well... analise this boys and girls, this album is one of her best work. Maybe the bravest, most honest thing she ever did. I am happy that I found it for myself and I gues she will never be on the same shelf for me like my favourite singers and songwriters but I really appriciate this album. No words can describe how much strength is in the last song especially when you are in the age and time of having or bulding your family. However, the song Mother and Father is much better in acoustic version. That is the only thing I miss from this release. -
what is the enhanced portion contains because i have one and when i click on extra the cd just open folder named "EXTRA" and not see anything elese :/ can someone let me know what is it ? or they named enhanced portion just the registration part :/ ???
