I also pointed out this defect to Amazon after 2 returns. Bit disappointed, but not worth the hassle - especially after the last time I returned one (which someone had gone straight through the outer sleeve with a box cutter). You would look at the album (and it’s artwork) while you listened - the whole thing became a complete experience; the more you listened and the more you looked, the more the two (aural and visual) became intertwined with each other. Needless to say, it was slightly dog eared around the corners when I got it.

I'm finally satisfied after 7 bad discs. 1 mix of the studio version of “Quadrophenia” is highly recommended for surround friends! The shortcomings on the edge of the disc are still present.

On one device the disc is not charged at all, on the other the strong vibrations remain when playing. I tested 5 discs (1x from JPC, 4x from Amazon) on 2 different players without success.

THE GATEFOLD ALBUM (AND THE BOOK) / ORIGINAL AND REISSUE:One of the treats of a vinyl record back in the day was it’s BIGNESS…You would go to the record store, buy a record (like this one), take it home, sit down and actually listen to it (in order, and all the way through). 2014:Yesterday I finally received a working copy of this Blu-Ray from another provider. The edge is wavy and unclean processed. The incredible photography, actors and staging communicates volumes without needing a single typed word of accompaniment…This is something I didn’t think about much back in the day, but am astonished now at the cohesiveness of this whole endeavor.

) than the original, and the individual pictures of The Who in the scooter’s mirrors are (slightly) different on the re-issue than the original (not that any of this matters, it’s just interesting to see the differences). ”), loneliness (“leaves start falling, come downers calling”), the yearning to be part of a group (“…I work myself to death just to fit in”) and yet stand out (“…you’ll all see, I’m the one”) were/are all there, as is the quiet, underlying message that love could/can be the answer. A comparison of the original and re-issue Cover Art is fascinating… The image on the re-issue is clearer, and yet murkier(!

In THIS album’s case, the brilliantly photographed enclosed book (which is totally wordless), completely illustrated the music, and the music acted as a soundtrack to it. ); The Who seemed more like your older friends who could channel your thoughts and reflect them back to you.
