Cut from the original analogue master tapes and pressed at Record Technology Inc in California, this 18Og Warners reissue sees all 17 tracks spread over two discs. Despite Rubin's encouragement to simply 'set up the mics and play' the production sparkles, the band sounding punchier and more vibrant here than ever. True, some solo hi-hat work can sound a touch 'hot', but this is masked when the rest of the band pile-drive along. In all, an impressive and clean-sounding release, our copy being mercifully free of surface noise.
