Free Music Review: SACD version.....Better.
Hit: 5 Stars
I have bought this album twice as an LP, and 4 times as a CD. The different versions all had one thing in common...when the song playing had a lot of tracks going, they became muddied. Also, treble and midrange seemed muted.
The SACD version, when played on my high end multichannel system, is a revelation. Folks, it sounds unlike any other version. Vocals come through the center speaker with all the nuances of the tone and breath control. You can make out the words in every song. For example, "Tell the Truth" and its previously slurred vocal by Whitlock and Clapton is now crystal clear. So THAT is what they were saying! 'Where You're going or been'....ah ha!
Rhythm and second guitars are clear in the rear channels, piano AND organ on most tracks, by golly, lots of unheard percussion tracks now stand out, things that were overwhelmed before you now hear. The mix puts different emphasis on some of the guitar parts that you had to really strain to hear before, changing how the song sounds. If you have "The Layla Sessions" track charts, you can now hear all the things claimed to have been laid down, but were just not discernible before.
I don't know if this is good or bad, but it does allow you to hear everything. How this jives with the original intent of the band, engineer or mixer's intents, I have no idea. Perhaps we got the mixes we did due to technological limitations from 38 years ago.
It is STILL Layla, there is STILL the awesome guitar interplay between the two all world guitarists. But, this version you get to hear it all, all the rest of the song. I simply view it as the version where you get to hear everything that was recorded. Good or bad, I don't know, but I know I like it, like it, yes I do.
