I'm glad another reviewer mentioned the same problem, so I know it's not just my particular CD. This is sold as an "original" recording, so I knew it might not sound like something recorded yesterday, but I was not prepared at all for the terrible quality of some of the songs. They literally sound like someone played the movie on a TV and stood in front of it with an old tape recorder, and then made a CD from that. It's fuzzy, grainy, and the voices echo. This is one of the greatest musicals of all time, and this CD didn't do it justice one bit. So disappointed. Watch the movie instead.

Of Course this is a great album However the songs are out of sync if you download to windows media player you will have to re-title the songs

What can I say? The Sound of Music is a wonderful and lovely CD. You watch the movie and you seee the songs. You listen this CD and you see the movie. It is an all time classic. Buy it; it is really a Best Buy.

I think you need to be an adolescent girl to truly enjoy the soundtrack to its fullest. Still I like it but would not really listen to it on a regular basis. The thing to remember is for what it is it definitely was a marker in musical history and by that right should be given respect.

The seller had delivery delays with his previous provider....my item was late coming. I contacted them and received an explanation (they changed carriers and "my item would be there in a few days") and it was. I appreciated the caring and prompt response to my query.

Of course beautiful music, but I would slurge for the newer version since this sounds like you are listening of a record player!
