QUOTE (Rolland @ SH)
My favorite version is the US Chrysalis (which has the track Teacher on it). The tracks Teacher does not sound so great on the US Chrysalis, but the other tracks are the best sounding versions I have heard so far. The UK Chrysalis sounds really weird in comparison, running significantly slower and sounding way off. The remaster is heavily no-noised in some areas.

Review (AMG)
Benefit was the album on which the Jethro Tull sound solidified around folk music, abandoning blues entirely. Beginning with the opening number, "With You There to Help Me," Anderson adopts his now-familiar, slightly mournful folksinger/sage persona, with a rather sardonic outlook on life and the world; his acoustic guitar carries the melody, joined by Martin Barre's electric instrument for the crescendos. This would be the model for much of the material on Aqualung and especially Thick as a Brick, although the acoustic/electric pairing would be executed more effectively on those albums. Here the acoustic and electric instruments are merged somewhat better than they were on Stand Up (on which it sometimes seemed like Barre's solos were being played in a wholly different venue), and as needed, the electric guitars carry the melodies better than on previous albums. Most of the songs on Benefit display pleasant, delectably folk-like melodies attached to downbeat, slightly gloomy, but dazzlingly complex lyrics, with Barre's guitar adding enough wattage to keep the hard rock listeners very interested. "To Cry You a Song," "Son," and "For Michael Collins, Jeffrey and Me" all defined Tull's future sound: Barre's amp cranked up to ten (especially on "Son"), coming in above Anderson's acoustic strumming, a few unexpected changes in tempo, and Anderson spouting lyrics filled with dense, seemingly profound imagery and statements. As on Stand Up, the group was still officially a quartet, with future member John Evan (whose John Evan Band had become the nucleus of Jethro Tull two years before) appearing as a guest on keyboards; his classical training proved essential to the expanding of the group's sound on the three albums to come.

ЗЫ сравнил с ремастером и с голландским прессингом - этот таки лучше звучит, больше деталей, отчетливей и tape hiss (нету шумодава) :rolleyes:

Тоже посмотрел. Чуть слюной не подавился.
Если будет возможность, загляните в мой request - пост. Возможно, что-то из упомянутого там окажется интересным и для Вас. Все, что я из этого списка пробил по bccls.org, оказалось в наличии.

P.S. Хотел это сообщение послать в РМ, но движок форума не позволил.
