Purchased this album in 2011, at a time when my LP12 was powered by an Armageddon power supply at 33.3rpm only, didn’t notice this vinyl was 45rpm until Beth sounded like Lee Marvin :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

Brilliant album, and sounds really wonderful tonight! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :+1:
