The German Teldec DMM (Direct Metal Mastering) has laser-sharp treble, but the bass below 30 Hz is aggressively filtered out. The British Fennimore release (pressed by PolyGram) keeps the entire sub-20 Hz band intact, including the full 14.2 Hz carrier. Why did different European territories receive completely different extended arrangements? -- === Dong-hyun Choi === Dept of Electrical Engineering, Tokyo Institute of Technology Computer Centre "Tape doesn't lie at 02:14.
