CD Reviews

NOT the original versions!

"I have to post this to warn other buyers from doing what I did. I really dislike remakes of hits repackaged in a new CD and sold as if they were the original versions. I bought this CD specifically because from the title and from the previous review posted, I assumed it would contain the ORIGINAL version of Roger Whittaker's songs. This is NOT the case. This is an import CD that clearly on the cover says "Original Hits". These are absolutely *NOT* the original versions of his songs that, like me, you may remember hearing on the radio. These are remakes that are "fairly" close to the originals, but different enough to tell the difference and really bug you if you were looking for the originals. Whittaker is a great singer and my 1 star rating is no reflection on him, it's strictly because this CD is outright deceptive in being labeled "The Best of Roger Whittaker -- Original Hits" when it definitely does NOT contain the original versions."
Cautious, But Now Pleased

"Very pleased with this CD!! Before ordering this CD, I had read reviews of other Roger Whittaker CDs, along the lines of poor recording quality and not original recordings. Being a big Roger Whittaker fan many years ago, I was concerned about ordering some of the CDs I saw listed. Finally came across this one, which indicated "best of" and "original hits", though it also indicated "import". Now I've received and listened to this CD, and I think it is great!! The recordings sound like the orignals to me, as I remembered them many years ago, and recording quality is excellent. My favorites are The Last Farewell and Albany. Highly recommend this one."
