This is actually a very good album. If re-mastered I would spring for a replacement copy.

Same here-now please do the MCA albums and Deluxes of the Arista albums!

Yes.only if the sound is improved.

Otherwise, I already have it and the Did Ya EP CD............(which I like better than any of the later albums)

Does the original cd sound bad?

I'm not sure I have any version of this album. How is that possible?

No, not really JoeP. But with the advancements in re-mastering I am sure it can be more than marginally be improved.

Rick A.

It's frustrating because there is an opportunity for cds now to all sound great, but many are not mastered to their potential and worse, many are too loud which negates any positive
work done to the cd.

I'm looking forward to this . I had Did Ya on a cd single / ep but haven't seen it in years . I'm pretty sure that it had a few other songs on it that were not on the album / cd . A very underrated album .

The "Did Ya" EP did have other good songs. I especially liked Dave's "Look Through Any Doorway" and I'm sorry it hasn't been added to this remaster of Phobia.

The American EP (in a standard jewel case rather than the UK slimline) is collectibly priced nowadays, with more reasonable prices for used:
