    I actually have a question that maybe someone out there can answer. I have come across a Crystal Clear test pressing that judging by the matrix information is CCS 5013. It's 2 side-long tracks of percussion somewhat akin to a Rhythm Devils type vibe. I can't find any information about it & am pretty curious to know what this is. Any help would be appreciated!

      San Francisco Ltd. - Great music with wonderful performances. And this is just possibly the best sound quality ever recorded on any media - ever. LP. CD, SACD, DVD-audio - whatever. Even on mediocre equipment the sound quality of this album is spectacular. And on a good quality system it's breathtaking. Just make sure your system is up to it. The album is recorded on 45 rpm. with no noticable compression or equalization and simply explodes from the speakers - and it'll explode the speaker-units if you're not careful. Digital will have to go above 1 GHz/256 bits before there's any comparison.
