There exists an album that is recorded three times: in "normal" analog,
as a "digital" master, and as a "high-speed analog" master.

I saw it today in Rose Records in downtown Chicago, and although I forget
the selection (a Bruckner symphony?), I remember one important detail:

	THEY DON'T TELL YOU WHICH METHOD WAS USED FOR ANY SIDE.

The recording methods are labeled "Method 1," "Method 2," and "Method 3."
You can write to the manufacturers and find out which methods correspond to
which side.

If I had any faith in my turntable/stylus (time to either get a new one or
get a CD player, tired of ruining records) I would grab it.
