� Ms. Bayly has had reviews in probably the last three issues of

performance and recording for years, the Pristine Audio CD was the
first time she had ever heard it. She then wrote at great length,
stating that she found the performance marvellous. All well and good.
Then -- at the end of her review -- she went into ecstasies about the
sound of the Pristine Audio transfer, stating that all previous
incarnations had been inferior and even listing a couple of ways in
which they were. (I no longer have the issue, so I regret being unable
to quote her directly.)

I imagine she had heard the earlier incarnations after the latest one.
Otherwise, she would surely not have written what she wrote. Fanfare
needs to clarify.

I imagine that if she had heard the earlier incarnations after the
latest one, she would surely not have written that the latest one was
the only one she had ever heard when she wrote and submitted the
review. It is she who needs to clarify.
