    My copy sounds very good. Somehow it sounds like a mono to me. Not sure if there’s a mono version.

      Quite a lot of popping. End of each side is quite distorted too.

        Whilst this is nothing like my favourite Genesis album - I'm a Gabriel-era fan - I have to it that side 1 of this album is a good listen and is definitely worth having if only for the terrific 'Home By The Sea'.
