A great pressing of a wonderful album. It sounds better than both the 1994 CD and the 1994 2xLP editions.
I got a copy in a HMV shop reduced to £29.99 at the end of January 2025. The HMV shop had another copy for the same price and I saw 2 copies at the same reduced price in another HMV shop.
Highly recommended. -
Beautiful pressing of a beautiful album .I'm very happy with this . Why can't all vinyl sound this good . Tad bit of a warp, but who cares .

Spiritual successor to Oxygene, lovely pressing. Flat, Silent, and I think the sound overall and the separation is great. Packaging on the other hand, is crap. Card is thin, printing is rubbish and inner sleeves are thin paper. Such an amazing album deserves at least poly lined sleeves? I paid £29 in HMV sale, but if I'd paid full price, would have felt a bit cheated. But, the important thing is, it sounds great!

Grab a bargain before it sells out, amazing album!
One of my all time favourites. The sound is fantastic on this, way better than the original which I've worn out years ago -
This pressing sounds unbelievable. Pristine, quiet, full. Glad I waited so many years to buy a copy on vinyl. Glad this one came along at the right time. -
Just listened to both this and the 2018 reissue and must say that this 'Optimal' job is significantly better than the previous one in of the quality control of the press. Surface noise, present in certain amount on all sides of the 2018 reissue, is non-existent on this one, at least on my copy. Also, not a trace of pops and clicks, which were rather annoying on a 2018 release. Sound wise, it's the same, very well mastered material, so there's no difference between the two. -

Exclusive in UK to HMV, Sounds great, really quiet, clear deep bass and good separation of the mid to high end sound. Colour is beautiful too!
