Title: Disappointing sound quality on a classic soundtrack
Product review: Like many people I guess, I bought this CD to replace my Capital vinyl LP of this wonderful Gordon MacRae/Shirley Jones classic. Being somewhat of a perfectionist I was looking forward to hearing the much loved tracks with new clarity and free from the cracks and pops of vinyl. Oh dear! I didn't take more than a few seconds listening to realise that something was wrong. The sound quality that was there on the vinyl has been lost in this digital remaster. I can best describe the problem as a severe loss of high frequency response which is so profound that the letter "s" sounds like "f" or is lost altogether. eg When Shirly Jones sings "People will say we're in love" it sounds like "People will ay we're in love" What a disappointment. I can't really believe that such a masterpiece has been so treated in remastering.
