CD Reviews

Great collection, horrible audio quality

J. Polsgrove | Baja Arizona | 06/29/2009

(2 out of 5 stars)

"I bought this as a CD, not as a download, so there should have been excellent audio quality. A lot of old recording artists are getting the remastering treatment, where all the pops and hisses of acetate master recordings are digitally "cleaned up" and clarity of sound is improved. None of that was apparently done for this release. The sound quality varies from horrible to so-so, which is a shame because as the set list goes, it's a great collection. I've played the CD maybe once or twice, but just can't bear to listen to the horrible audio. I guess I'll wait until someone has the sense to do Lead Belly right and remaster his recordings properly.

I'd give this CD just 1 star because the quality is so bad, but the songs collected here are just so good that if you can live with poor audio quality, you might want it, though I would NOT recommend it. Please sample the tunes first, either here or at iTunes, to see what I mean about the audio quality.
