CD Reviews

Great Price For New Remasters But No No Liner Notes!
David Lord | Clemons, Iowa United States | 06/07/2009
(3 out of 5 stars)

"The 5 CDs collected here are the new remixed expanded reissues, each CD given its own cardboard sleeve identical to the original LP sleeve in miniature excepting the altered catalog number. This means the mini-LP sleeves have only the original tracks listed. The outside sleeve does list bonus tracks but does not detail what many of the bonus tracks are. I believe some are single versions (a couple with alternate Mick Ralphs guitar parts left in while the album versions were altered after he left the band). When demos were recorded is left to the imagination, as is the date of the live recordings included! The lack of liner notes cost this package a few stars! As a historian who likes to reedit my favorite band's music chronologically I find this very annoying and will be purchasing the individual releases for the liner notes from now on. An exception would be the wonderful Argent 5-LP collection which includes no bonus tracks and I don't need the new liner notes. (No matter how well I cared for the albums those soft keyboard and sparse vocal passages were starting to sound a bit rough on my vinyl.)"
