I finally fiinished my comparisons of various pressings of Fragile by Yes.
There were three that clearly stood out from the field and I would recomend any
of them. It was very difficult to pick a favorite between them. They were the
Brittish original with the orange and plum label, The George Piros American
white label promo and the George Piros Columbia record club issue. Of the three
the Columbia record club issue was my slight favorite but all three were
excellent. On a side note. I highly recomend the Peggy Lee greatest hits
reissue on S&P records. The old mono recordings from the late forties sound
amazingly good for that era and the late fifties/early sisxties stereo
recordings are amazingly life like and are on a par with the DCC reissues of
Roy Orbison and Elvis Presley.One other recomendation is the Cisco reissue of
Joan Baez Farwell Angelina.
