I have the 2000 release and it's one of my favorite records. I just saw that a 180 gram re-release was issued a couple of years ago and can still be bought for cheap, considering mint copies of the 2000 original release are going for 100 euros!

Anyone been able to compare the two? If the new one sounds as good as the old one (and my mint copy sounds very very good!) I would consider buying it to keep the older copy fresh.

I have the original pressing and am very pleased with it. I didn't think it needed improving in any way. Let us know if you acquire and what if any improvements there might be.
Thanks,

Still spinnin'...

Meh, it's a little expensive and I just blew 30 bucks on the first album, "Boulevard" so I'll be enjoying that for a while.
