Problem with a Track
Berry. This is, in my view, an excellent (five-star) collection, one that avoids some songs I am not crazy about and has all the ones I most care about from Mr. The price is great as well. HOWEVER, ON MY COPY THERE IS A PROBLEM, SEEMINGLY WITH THE MASTER TAPE THE CD WAS MADE FROM, ON TRACK 15, "Bye Bye Johnny. " The last words Chuck sings on the song are, "Bye, bye Johnny; Goodbye Johnny B. Goode. " In the middle of the first of these last two "Johnny"s it sounds exactly like a tape is being distorted by being slowed down. This only lasts for the second half of the word, but it is jarring and unacceptable to a perfectionist like me, and doubtless to most listeners. Amazon very graciously is allowing me to return (I don't want another copy, as I think the tape they used for all the CD's is likely to have the same problem) for a refund. There is an identical collection with the background cover being yellow instead of red. Maybe they fixed it on that? I may try the yellow one. If anyone out there can check their copy of the red one, I'd be curious whether it has the same defect. It is easy to check for yourself, if not for me. You go to track 16 (the track that follows the problem one) and then hit reverse for a little bit to get to the last words of track 15. I wanted people to know I had a problem, but, to be fair and for replacement purposes, it would be nice to know if this just happened on my or some rather than all discs. Also, I'd love to know if the yellow one is okay. M. B.
