Audio
Side 1 :Mostly excellent but dips to a very good grading, only at final track and on the closing grooves, where there is light static/pop detected. Side 2 : very good /+ . Some light static opening grooves, inexplicable pop. Plays really well.The extra loud cut delivery however ,thunders way above any surface disturbance. Brilliant blasts of rock, powered through those wider vertigo grooves, convey an electric performance and will please any heavy metal enthusiast.
No record collection should be without this awesome Sabbath release. Bargain price!
