1.0 out of 5 stars Defective recording--BEWARE!, February 15, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: French Military Marches (Audio CD)

What would have been an otherwise exciting and stirring recording recalling all the pomp and circumstance of the French Military is completely ruined by loud crackling and popping in some of the tracks. In fact, the first time I listened to this CD (full of excited anticipation), I was in my car travelling down the interstate behind a truck which I thought was throwing gravel up on my windshield. It wasn't--it was the CD. I firmly believe that Amazon.com should contact the producer of this recording and demand that it be done over properly.

1.0 out of 5 stars Save your money, February 26, 2004

I was severely disappointed in this recording. I love military music of all kinds, but the unnamed group or groups on this recording failed to present this music adequately. On most tracks, the percussion was so loud that it was hard to hear the brass and winds, which was probably a good thing in a way in that both sections displayed serious problems with intonation and rhythmic integrity. From now on, I think I'll stick with recordings by groups which aren't unwilling to put their names on them.

DO NOT BUY.
This is a waste of money. It must have been recorded with a paper bag held over a single microphone. Absolute garbage.
Amazon should be ashamed of selling this.
