Reviews:
  • Negal
This double vinyl issue is dreadful. The mastering is appalling with it being far too loud which ended up making the record far too hot. Sibilance abounds everywhere and the female backing vocals on We'll Be Together distort painfully. The loudness wars come to vinyl it appears.The saddest thing about this is that Sting's albums have always been peerless in their production and the A&M pressings have been some of the best in the industry.
  • Umdwyn
This is basically 'Best Of 18 Years on A&M'
