Title: Nice to have these out on disk and not bootlegged BUT!!!!
Product review: The Selection was great, the book was put together very well.BUTNot one review talked about this so I'm assuming not to many people have listened to these disks closely on a good set of headphones. there is not one single track that does not reek of distortion. I find it very hard to believe that the first generation or even the second generation tapes would be this bad. I have heard Bootlegs which were taken fron albums sound far better than these. I know I have heard better masters for the Kinks, Sound Orchestral and The Ivy League. What happened? Fans have been waiting for these for a very long time and this is the best ABKCO could do. For those who want to know how bad. Take a 45 RPM only cheap record player from the 60's with a penny on the tone arm so it won't skip, take a worn out 45 turn up the volume all the way and you got it. All that's missing is the scratches.
