This is a retouched picture, which means that it has been digitally altered from its original version. Modifications: Click removal only. There was surprisingly little hiss (probably because of the improved manufacture method used by the Indestructible Record Company), so I didn't think it was useful to do more. Modifications made by Adam Cuerden.
