This is a fantastic album and one of my absolute favorites. I have several different pressings of it (including the Rhino) but the best hands-down is MFSL, imo.

Why the first run isn't included is a mystery. https://www.discogs.com/Chicago-Transit-Authority-Chicago-Transit-Authority/release/10803461 The percussion breaks on "Beginnings" and "I'm a Man" are no less than spectacular. I'd like to hear this Brazilian mono press https://www.discogs.com/Chicago-Transit-Authority-Chicago-Transit-Authority/release/7216145 |
I see there is a 50th anniversary Rhino available, and a Friday Music Studios and Capital Records version mastered by Joe Reagoso using the original master tapes and supervision by Chicago's Lee Loughnane. For 5.00 more it comes in red vinyl. Has anyone heard these? I really appreciate your responses to help me out on which version to buy. The MOFI is only available on SACD new and it has good reviews, but I would rather purchase a record. Yeah, the first run is definitely something I'd like to check out. |
I've been very happy with the original vinyl so haven't explored other vinyl versions. As far as CD's go I have the 02 and the 19 of which I greatly prefer the Rhino 02 the most recent issue almost sounds like a different album I don't know what they were thinking. ( Other CTA fans I know feel the same) |
