Product Information

Released by Universal Music on 6 May 2016 (delayed from 15 April 2016) on high quality audiophile vinyl. Unlike previous reissues the album was cut at half-speed at Abbey Road Studios. This technique results in the very highest quality sound reproduction. Once in a while you hear a song that finds its way deep into your memory, and you find yourself humming along. This album has more than its share of fine songs like that, but noticeably Go Down Easy and May You Never.” (Pippin)
