Fifth studio album by the Scottish alternative rock band, originally released in 1988. Vocalist Elizabeth Fraser named the album after a peak in southern Utah called Bluebell Knoll.

Noticeable improvement in sound quality
I'm maybe a bit "odd", in that I don't always subscribe to the "vinyl is best" opinion - but in this case there is a noticeable improvement in the audio quality compared to my CD copy. I've had this album since it's release. In 1988 I was a poor first-time buyer of a flat, when interest rates rocketed to 15%, so money was REALLY tight - but I managed to buy the cassette version of this (of my favourite band) on its release. Replaced in the 90's on CD, my OCD personality loves the clean, clear audio. This vinyl version was a gift from my son for Father's Day - a bit of a novelty, to be honest, and I didn't have high expectations - but the sound quality is amazing - I'm well-impressed, and it actually outperforms my CD. I have original vinyl from the 60's and 70's, and this beats most of my collection "hands down" for sound quality and aesthetic presentation.

I never heard this album before and didn't know of it's existence but I saw a bit about this album on here (Amazon) and I thought, "give it a try" ,I'm glad I DID AS IT IS A FINE PIECE OF WORK FROM THE Cocteau TWINS.
