"I reviewEd the "Danger Money" remaster and felt as though the remastering on that was a little more remarkable than on this release. As with "Danger Money" I a/b'Dthe EG edition with this new remaster using good headphones straight into the cd player. It's a good remaster but by no means a "massive or stunning" upgrade. It clearly HAS been remastered as there is much more depth in the low frequency range. If already own the ED edition you love this particular album I would say buy it.
These remasters are weak on liner notes and for "30th anniversary editions" fall short of what could have been in terms of extra/bonus content. I have yet to find the first album remastered locally but as soon as I do will share my opinions. Remastering is very subjective and not all of us hear the same thing. If you believe in the band and like the best quality possible it would be worth the purchase. Whenever I listen to this particular album I have issues regarding the performance, as there appears to be allot of "extra" back up vocals that I cannot reconcille as being possible "live". If anyone has insight into this I would love to know."
Good time after time

"Band just doesn't miss a beat.
Especially with Terry Bozzio keeping time.
Not empty at all even without Holdsworth."
HORRIBLE REMASTERING!

"Stay away from Edduie Jobson's alleged "remasters" of the three UK albums, "UK," "Danger Money" and "Night After Night." All three sound horrible! They are muddy with all the high frequencies rolled off. Save your money and look for the Editions EG versions. They sound MUCH better."
