CD Reviews

Mislabeled, but...

"As mentioned above in Zeph Ng Zhibin's review, the tracks on this CD are in fact different than what is listed online and on the packaging. I had to do some research comparing track times and listening to samples on iTunes, Amazon, and other sites to figure out what they actually are. I bought the CD specifically for "Clocks" and was happy that it is on this album. I was disappointed, however, that "Only Time" was one of the tracks that was not. I guess it evened out in the end because one of my favorite songs, "El Condor Pasa", came as a surprise.



It is a good CD for what it has on it, but I may have purchased another one of the compilations available had I been aware of this issue. For the prospective buyer I will include the actual tracklisting noting what CDs the tracks come from:



1. "Miracle" [from Eastern Energy]

2. "El Condor Pasa" [from Romantic Energy]

3. "New Classicism" (Medley) [from Eastern Energy]

4. "Clocks" [from Eastern Energy]

5. "Take Five" [from Shanghai]

6. "Reel Around The Sun" [from Eastern Energy]

7. "Whispering Earth" [from Romantic Energy]

8. "Dunhuang" [from Romantic Energy]

9. "The Great Valley" [from Eastern Energy]

10. "Carnival" [from Shanghai]

11. "Shining Energy" [from Shanghai]

12. "Freedom" [from Eastern Energy]"

"Bought it from the Amazon Marketplace.



Whilst the CD sent over to me is printed as 'The Best of 12 Girls Band', the problem is that the contents (music) are incorrect.



As opposed to the 16 songs that are supposed to be included, only 12 are, and a majority, if not all of them, are mis-titled.



Jet Audio, iTunes, Windows Media Player and Exact Audio Copy were not able to receive feedback for the contents of the disc, which is also something fishy.



At present, I am not sure if this is a batch print error or the problem is a secluded one, but if you know your titles from this band, I would suggest avoiding the purchase of this product until the issue gets (hopefully) ironed out."
