Jim,
I would give it a 6 out of 10 in regard to sound quality. Good width, depth, & soundstage, but I bit compressed. I used to listen to this album a lot, great content. 
@spiritofradio - thanks for the tip on Crossroads - I'll have to check it out next time I'm down in Portland. 
Well, I apologize Jim @tomic601 , I can’t find Metals.   It was in Heavy rotation bin awhile back I know but can’t seem to track where it went from there.  If I run across it any time soon I’ll report.   I wouldn’t care to doubt Tim’s assessment though.  Funny that I don’t remember it having poor sq.  Music first I suppose.

His Masters Voice 1982 Repress

There are some expensive reissue of this (including by the Electric Recording Company) but even this humble repress is one of the most amazing sounding recordings I’ve ever heard.   Very real. Very detailed. And the music is very very moving.  @bkeske, Brian, if you don’t have this one already you really should check it out.  



@spiritofradio - I just looked Crossroads up- sheesh, I used to live about a mile from there many moons ago. Do you know Otto's Deli on Woodstock? I love their brats! 
@gardners501, you’re quite welcome.   Give yourself plenty of time if you go - there are veins of gold to be found in that mountain.
