rmd: "Deeds Of Mercy" definitely came out on top for me. "Ring Them Bells" definitely sounds to have gone through the digital mill to take out the hiss and brighten the sound, but the true presence of the music has been forfeited to a degree. It's not at all bad, but I'd advise any analog fan to stick with "Deeds." (Matthew
Zuckerman)
Although "Bells" has better sound than "Deeds", the different track listings make it difficult to say categorically that either disc is dispensible. (Ben Taylor)
