CD Reviews

Bad sound

Blues Bro | Lakewood, Colorado USA | 07/23/2004

(1 out of 5 stars)

"There are other versions of these amazing sides out there, with better sound. These sound like they were taken directly from an old LP. The surface noise is always there. Also, seems that they click the stop button before many of the tracks finished. I am happy with most of the Definitive releases, but this one fails the test."
