Title: Good album, lousy re-mix and CD transfer
Product review: A wonderful piece from Carlos' "fusion" days. BUT, the CD release is marred by remix-transfer, which is, to be diplomatic, lousy.What suffers most is the percussion work, notablyArmando Perraza's astonishing bongo work on the closing medley. (I've gotten samples from the LP release by streamed audio over my dial-up modem and cheesy desk-top speakers which sounded better than the CD does on a good home system. )There are percussionists out there who consider Perraza's work to be one of the best bongo performances ever recorded; why can't we hear it?
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
