  • "We said this about him before: It was extraordinarily impressive to hear how close remastering engineer Joe Nino-Hernes rode the fence regarding the album's earliest sound versus a modern reimagining that will impress any die-hard audiophile. This Vinylphyle is a solid keeper. Merry Christmas in advance."
