3rd Brandenburg 3rd Movement Comparison

[Doug G.]

Just curious if anybody else has compared the 3rd movement of Bach's 3rd Brandenburg as on the SQ "Switched On Bach" LP to the 3rd movement as on the SQ "Bach's Greatest Hits" LP.

Reading this, I’d assume they’re the same mastering. Wendy Carlos Disc Notes:

Switched-On Bach I was mastered in two track stereo, but a couple of years later got the early quad treatment, too. We made careful new mixes at CBS's bequest. But that mastering was released in their phony-quad system: SQ, if only for a couple of years in the early '70's.

Yes, I know all that. I was wondering if anybody had actually compared the two versions to see if they hear differences.
