2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, May 28, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: OCEAN WAVES (Audio CD)

I was very much looking forward to playing this CD; it's currently (May 27 1999) the top-selling environmental recording at Amazon.com, and it has garnered some enthusiastic reviews from previous buyers. When my package arrived from Amazon.com I disappeared upstairs to my bedroom and prepared to be spirited away to some deserted stretch of wild ocean. Yet it would take a mind with a much greater imagination than mine to believe even for a moment that the sounds on this CD bear any relation to anything found in nature. The sounds of surf are synthetic and artificial, an undifferentiated hiss and roar, comparable to someone blowing on a microphone. I couldn't recommend this to anyone, and doubt if I'll be buying any more of the 'Sounds of Nature' series anytime soon. Darn.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for Office White Noise, December 9, 1999

This review is from: OCEAN WAVES (Audio CD)

When I first listened to this CD through speakers, I was a little disappointed. I tended to agree with a previous reviewer who thought it sounded like static. I took the CD to work and listened to it through headphones. What a difference. It sounds so much better. I got this CD in order to drown out the conversations of the guy in the cube next to mine. He is from the planet where they NEVER SHUT UP! I am a computer programmer and I need to concentrate and focus. This CD is perfect as a source of masking white noise. It is great because it has no background music and it is one long continuous track.

The clarity of this CD is similiar to the hiss of a radio between channels--and you don't have to pay extra for that! If you've been to the ocean you'll realize that this is not what it sounds like. ;)
