This is a good album, but its impossible to get a good copy of this particular release (MCAD-5749.) I've gone through four copies over the years, one was even sealed when I got it. I couldn't rip ANY of them -- and all of them were in near immaculate condition with no obvious flaws. Perhaps the reason every copy in circulation is a cut-out/punch-out is because of manufacturing defect. The fact that MCA pulled this and then reissued the album in the Compact Disc / Compact Price series months later makes one wonder. I'm assuming THAT release (MCAD-31075) would be the way to go, but good luck. I've never seen one out in the wild.Older but wiser, I wouldn't drop more than a couple bucks on this particular flavor in the name of taking a gamble on something that may or may not be readable and I definitely wouldn't pay the insane prices some sellers are wanting for sealed copies.
