CD Reviews

Flawed master
Brass Fancier | Colorado | 06/30/2005
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Another exquisite collection from the Grimethorpe Colliery Band, but appears to have been cut from a flawed master. My first copy was a gift from a friend in the U.K., and the final track produced sharp crackley sounds like a deeply scratched vinyl disc, so I ordered another from Amazon plus a second one for a friend. Both have the same flawed final cut, but I've not returned them because it is so good that I'd rather have it flawed than not at all."
Nice selections - dissappointing sound quality
Top Hat | Kansas City, MO | 05/12/2007
(2 out of 5 stars)

"This is one of the UK's top brass bands performing tastefully arranged hymn tunes. Featured in the movie "Brassed Off!" I expected great things from this CD. My main disappointment is the sound quality, or lack thereof. I have vintage cassette tapes which sound considerably better. The performances are mostly excellent, but I fear not enough to overcome the poor sound."
