john asks: which is the best performance is any thing better than the Lindsays ?
Sarah Rodgers answered:That is rather a matter of taste. For example as to whether you prefer a string sound with more or less vibrato. The only real way to decide is to listen to different versions and try to discover which moves you, or excites you or fulfils you. In my view, Janet's version with the Lindsays has great musical integrity.
