Before we measured, sources said: D Standard, with no pitch given (community).
The first album produced by Russ Russell and Simon Efemey, and the start of the D Standard years. Newer tabs use D Standard; a set of text tabs posted when the album came out used C♯, the tuning of the 1990s records. TuneLit's semitone check sides with D: it agrees on 8 songs and is unsure on the other 6, never preferring C♯. The CD measures about 6 ¢ sharp, with low confidence: this is one of the densest mixes in the catalogue.
