No public checksum database exists, but you can compare or CTDB results if you rip your own CD. For the 1984 original CD (Island 7 90231-2, made in Japan for US):

in FLAC is not just about technical fidelity; it is about preserving the "unfocused" production approach that made the album unique.

The commercial peak of the album. In a high-quality FLAC rip, you can hear the distinct "chime" and rhythmic delay of The Edge's Stratocaster, which can sound brittle or compressed in lower-bitrate MP3s.

If this FLAC is from an unofficial LP rip, surface noise or speed drift could occur. A verified CD-rip or official HD digital release (e.g., from Qobuz or 2009 remaster) is safe.
