Title: Buyer beware
Product review: If you are expecting to get the full version of "Disco Nights (Rock Freak)," you will be disappointed. Unfortunately, there is nothing on the packaging that indicates that the version of "Disco Nights" is a radio edit instead the original album version (which exceeds 8 minutes). This is inexcusable and lazy, and one of my chief problems with compilations: the producers often are lazy and place edited versions of the artist's most important singles on the compilation, and use the saved time to add filler material. This practice is particularly egregious here because (a) there is no notice to the consumer on the packaging, and (b) in this case, the full version of "Disco Nights" was on the album (instead of being a specially commissioned 12" single remix). In my mind, the only reason to purchase such a short compilation is to get the full version of "Disco Nights," which is G.Q.'s most notable single.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
