Review (Stereophile)
Janis Ian's Breaking Silence consistently shows up on audiophile lists of reference popular recordings. Deservedly so-Ian points out in the liner notes that no synths, limiters, or samples were used during recording. In any case, the sonic purity is clearly audible: Simply recorded drums, guitars, bass, harmonica, and (of course) Ian's voice manifest an intimate setting for these direct, personal songs. Breaking Silence also broke from the mold of Ian's earlier albums; it's not preachy or self-consciously topical. The unguarded nature of the songs is reflected in Ian's vocal delivery, which eschews the broad vibrato that, for me, marred her earlier efforts.

While Breaking Silence has always sounded good, Analogue Productions' CD and LP sound even better. The quiet, supremely flat vinyl offers an even clearer sense of intimate space than did the originals, and the improvements in bottom-end extension are nothing short of mind-boggling. Harmonic overtones, whether from guitar string or cymbal, ring out with greater clarity and an increased sense of their inevitable decay.

Some long-time lovers of Breaking Silence have complained that the LP omits "Guess You Had To Be There" due to timing constraints-which is a pity, for it's a great song. But I'd have a hard time choosing to eliminate any of the other songs from the disc. The CD has them all, and is as close a match for the LP as any I've ever heard.

I suppose my favorite piece here is "What About the Love?"-an indictment of ugly religion, economic Darwinism, and a society that discards those it uses up. As social protest songs go, it runs a fairly consistent course-but it doesn't end there. Looking in the mirror, "I saw my pointing finger / pointing back at me / saying-Who named you accuser? / Who gave you the scales?" It's Ian's honesty, her ability to stare at her own shortcomings and not flinch, that makes Breaking Silence worth shouting about.-Wes Phillips

Шикарная запись! Сочный бас, барабаны, и замечательный голос Джанис... на некоторых треках немного попсовит, типа The Police / Toto, но это имхо даже ей идет :)

I was not aware of this, but apparently yes, it can :)
