Well here is my take on the  "Blow By  Blow " listening experience.
By far my favorite disc was the Half Speed Master it had so much warmth and a more natural sound with a great soundstage. I found the 180gm vinyl and the Gold CD to be a close match to each other. And the " plain jane " cd to be very unremarkable when companied to the other discs.  
 
Well that it after a week of listening to  "Blow By  Blow " I can safely say it will be a wile before I will listen again. However I will be checking the local record store to find one of those Half Speed Master Lp's.
 
Thanks again to " Steve " and " zumbini " for putting this togeather.
 
Looks like Rod is next on the list.

Guys, I'm in a bit of a mess right now - might be best to skip me. I won't be in a position to give them a proper listen until quite a bit later in the year....who's next?
