    It is not appropriate to judge this music. Honey for the ears. He assesses the quality of a vinyl record - the Japanese edition of MCA VIM-4606 from 1980. Almost mint condition, a record with practically no noise or crackles, with a very good natural sound. You can see that the oil crisis of the 70's did not affect the "Japanese".
    Many albums from the 70/80 were released on poor-quality materials, this one was definitely not.
