I finally got this (4 weeks from despatch to arrival in Perth) and would have to agree with the vocal majority. Tommy sounds like the tape head used for replay was misaligned, causing those weird phase effects in the vocals. I presume that JA copies the multitrack to digital, then mixes down to 2 tracks. If that is the case, the multitrack replay heads must have been out of alignment!!!
Then, this has been "corrected" with treble boost.
It is still possible that the problem lies in overuse of NoNoise - listen to the first DE version of Islands by King Crimson. Extreme NoNoise caused some odd phase shifts and bass distortion there.
Great performance however (LAL I mean, but also Islands.) :(

Yes, the DE is BAD BAD BAD. I should make a copy for Steve just so he can laugh at it...

I was *expecting* bad, but not this bad...
