A 12" single is really a special thing--all the great things about vinyl are combined with a CD-like dynamic range, and sense of "liveness." Laurie Anderson's voice rises out of a kind of electronic darkness on this pressing,..this is really the best way to hear this classic spooky hit song, that first brought the avant-garde to the radio. This copy is glossy and pristine, NM, with a sleeve that shows a bit of wear at the edges.
