Title: Good songs, marginal quality
Review: There are plenty of good songs, and they seem to be the originals from 1954. I particularly wanted the De Castro song which I had trouble finding elsewhere. Unfortunately, the quality leaves something to be desired. It sounds as though the songs were copied from vinyl records using heavy editing to remove the noise of scratches. Heavy editing can cause the music to have an "underwater" sound, kind of a warbling. I've experienced this myself when editing music from vinyl records.Also, the CD case is not the regular CD case you would expect. It is a slim cardboard case with a plastic mount for the CD inside. I hadn't seen this arrangement before.There is a series of "Hit Parade 19XX" CDs which may have the same characteristics.
Is the review positive or negative?
