I was in two minds about whether to buy this or not, but after your review, I think I'll give it a miss. Thanks Russ!
Like you, I wish they would reissue the post-80s albums on vinyl, but I don't see it happening anytime soon.

It's such a bummer to me that Sony just won't reissue everything The worst thing about picture discs is the fact that they never give you the artwork. But then a lot of standard black vinyls cheap out on the artwork when reissued as well. I have the Invincible picture disc, which actually looks nicer than the Dangerous black vinyl, which is very lazy (the inner sleeve literally looks like someone at the estate took the CD booklet and photocopied it in black and white).

Picture discs are the artwork. That's what they're for.

That's what's so frustrating about this one. There's SO much good artwork from the black vinyl version of HIStory and they didn't use any of it.

Picture discs are the artwork. That's what they're for. Right, which is why this particular one is very frustrating. I wasn't expecting it to sound good but I figured it would look good at the very least.
