Remastering notes (by thir13en): Source was good, a little thin and bright, but it's all there. Two typical frequency bands run through this one, the 15.75 TV tone and the 19K FM tone. The source claims SBD, but that frequency band refutes that. I say it's most likely an FM. Otherwise, it got my treatment, and it's bigger and bolder.

Comments

A really impressive sound on this one, crystal clear, with vocals and drums prominent in the mix. Its cleanness indicates it might come from a very low gen copy, rather close to the master. This is a remastered version of the original FLAC files, made by 'thir13en'. The dropout during 11 O'Clock Tick Tock has been repaired, but the one during Another Time, Another Place at 1:58 still persists.
