    Very Good Sounding Edition! Was Very Impressed By The Audio Quality.

    Very Punchy And Well Defined!

      This is one of a handful of seminal Eurodisco albums that defined a genre for a decade. It is a very good pressing with a very clean powerful punchy sound. If you are after this classic MT album and can't afford the extreme prices of the Hansa label then you will not be disappointed with a well looked after copy of this on the Mega label.
