The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway

I just picked up a reissue on vinyl. Very well done! This has always been one of my favorites. The copy I had never sounded this good, nor did the cd. If your a fan it's worth the $34.

"...it is inside Spirit, with enough grit to survive...."

There's some discussion about "best" Lamb releases on Steve Hoffman forums. Just a word of caution, "hideous" was applied by at least one poster to the 2008 release; other uncomplimentary comments there as well. I don't hear it that way when playing back a ripped version. Reviews on Amazon about the 2008 version are considerably more favorable. It is certainly not the most "euphonic" recording in my collection - never was (and I do have an old gatefold vinyl copy). If you buy on Amazon and hate it, you can return it of course. Price is not crazy high, either.
