CD ReviewsAbsolutely HORRIBLE recording quality!!!! Bootleg!! James K. Power | North Bergen, NJ USA | 08/22/2003 (1 out of 5 stars) "First, let me say that Little Willie John is, in my opinion, one of the greatest singers ever to have his voice recorded. Easily in my Top 10 list of greatest singers ever.That being said, the quality of this recording is ASTONISHINGLY bad!! This is a bootleg recording through and through! It is so bad I defy the listener to tell whether (on tracks 9-19) this is a live or studio recording. Was it recorded with a hand held mic? Was the microphone located at the bottom of trash can? Was there a lid on the trash can? The listener is left to wonder.I was really looking forward to hearing Little Willie John's version of "If I Loved You" - which may still be in a vault somewhere in a listenable condition - and couldn't believe how muffled and barely discernible this track was!! Ember records has GOT to be a fly-by-night outfit! No legitimate label could release something so ridiculously poor and 4th rate.There must not be a Little Willie John estate, because clearly no one who looks out for his interests, and the amazing recordings he made, could be associated with this scam of a recording!DO NOT BUY THIS CD - I GUARANTEE YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED!!" Bootlegged Music - Look For Other LWJ Recordings KevMuzMan | MI, USA | 01/21/2010 (1 out of 5 stars) "These recordings don't faithfully represent the quality of the recordings of Little Willie John.
The reason is simple, some of the recordings on the collection are bootlegged, non-authorized copies! If you really want to hear the songs in a high quality setting then the Little Willie John - Nineteen Sixty Six: The David Axelrod and HB Barnum Sessions (also available through Amazon.com) is the collection that you want! These recording are made from the masters of the original studio recordings. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=little+Willie+john+nineteen+sixty+six&x=0&y=0 Other quality Little Willie John CD's released through ACE Records UK are also available through Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=little+Willie+john+King+Early+Session&x=0&y=0 Please take a listen to these!
