Review: Crime Of The Century is probably the most unknown album ever that can be called truly amazing. The sound of this album (particularly on an original vinyl copy) just takes you into another world. It is the only album I know that perfectly combines catchy songwriting with the epic darkness of progressive rock. The album does have its up-tempo lighter songs, such as "Bloody Well Right" and "Dreamer", as well as otherworldly epics like "Asylum" and the title track, "Crime Of The Century". This album sounds like no other.
About Mobile Fidelity's UHQR Releases: In addition to the regular-weight LP releases and box sets, MFSL also released eight UHQR (Ultra High Quality Record) titles on LP. Each was a single-record box set limited to 5000 copies and individually numbered. UHQRs were pressed on heavy-weight (200 gram) "virgin" vinyl and pressed on the master stamper, also at JVC in Japan.
