    Any idea why the SACD is not listed on MOFI's website anymore, even a"sold out"?

    Only the LP is.

      I'm not hearing a huge improvement on the original cd (or subsequent) cd pressings. A well-produced/mixed album for sure, but this MFSL pressing seems to be lacking a bit of low end. (Not the norm for MFSL)

        This is a very poorly recorded / mixed album. What saves it, is the incredible songwriting. The original album was very brittle at the top-end, and this remaster smooths out a lot of the rough spots. The main downside was that there were way too many producers on this album, and the volume varies track to track, due to productions styles. Still, it is definitely one of the greatest debut albums of all-time.
