191.0. "Jethro Tull" by TIGER::PRYOR () Mon Oct 07 1985 10:07

Rockin' Mania  has 'Thick as a Brick' in stock!  Sound quality is very
good.

By the way, Rockin' Mania is discontnuing the 'club card'.  They claim
that wholesale prices are going up due to the value of the dollar.
Therefore, they either raise CD prices or eliminate the frills.

Off the subject of this note [sorry you noters...] but what does this mean
for those of us with partially punched 'club cards'. Maybe we should rush
out and by enough to fill up the card and get the discount? When will it
be discontinued? I was there less than a week ago, and they were still
punching away, and didn't make any sounds like this is going to be 
discontinued.

Good question!  I only needed 1 punch on my card when I was in the store
on Sunday.  I bought 2 discs; they gave me the discount for my second disc.
They did not issue me a new card.  If you have a mostly-filled card, I 
suspect that they will honor it (especially if you by enough discs to 
finish the card that day).

	Back on the subject of this note, The sound quality of 'Thick as
a Brick' is indded excellent. I also have 'Aqualung' and for this disc, the
sound is disappointing. There is so much background hiss that it is almost
as bad as listening to an LP. Could there be that much difference in the 
quality of the masters?

Anybody know of any other Tull on CD besides AQUALUNG and THICK AS A BRICK?
The last time I looked, the only other one was one of the "best of" things.

I have the CD of "Broadsword and the Beast" which is good quality and
have seen "Under Wraps" here in the UK
