I remember posting a complimentary, although not outstanding, opinion of
Hewitt's Book 1.  Then, when Book 2 was released, I raved about it.  That
did get me to listening again to Book 1 which was definitely better than I
had originally thought.  All in all, Hewitt's recordings of the complete
WTC are excellent and in the same company as Aldwell, Gould, etc.
