Manfred Stock –
Once again a great sound. If you listen to the album quietly, you might be disappointed at first. Make sure you listen at a higher volume. Suddenly the sound explodes with an incredible punch and richness of detail. A phenomenon that I have not yet experienced with AP releases is that the sound seems to open up with increasing volume. Fabulous.
