I just noticed this record was released for the first time on CD by Wounded Bird Records in Jan 2010. This had been on my wish list so I am both thrilled and surprised (I had no idea of a CD release). Now if you have not heard of this record, make sure to grab a copy and it's really affordable. Now I am just wondering about the quality...

I have it and I think it sounds very good - except for the "cassette mix" of "Angel In My Pocket." It really sounds like it came from an old cassette. But the rest sounds great. Most Wounded Bird reissues are flat transfers of the master tapes.

wow. I had NO idea it was released either. I've been waiting for this--but was hoping for all the 12" versions as bonus tracks. I take it that's not the case? Also, there's already one review on Amazon, and the reviewer says the sound quality is not the best and the volume fades in and out...

Hmm, such a shame. Guess I'll pass, unless I see it for $5.00. I like this album, but not enough to re-buy it for $14+tax.

just got my copy. It sounds pretty good to me, the only issue I find being the LP version of Angel in My Pocket at the very beginning (there's some faint scratchiness and a sort of digital hiccup I think), and also, doesn't the cassette mix sound like it's actually dragging a little bit, like Surly mentioned, as if it was mastered from an old cassette.
