it's mastered from the yinyl and then cleaned up a bit
the sound quality on the original is not what you'd call hi fi as it was
created on a teak 4 track tape recorder using the crude overdubbing that was

the performance however is terrifying
"mutti...muti....aaaaaaaagh"
"don't want to...don't want to...but must... MUST....SCREEEEEAM
I CAN KEEP MY ARM RAISED FOR TWO HOURS...TWO HOURS..(as his storm troopers
parade)
oh gawd
country and western is much safer
