CD Reviews

These recordings deserve a proper reissue.

(2 out of 5 stars)

"It's no wonder this set (which was originally released at bargain-basement prices) is fetching a pretty nice price on the used market. There are some wonderful and rightfully famous recordings here. All come from the 78-rpm era, and we would have been better off if Delta would have just played the records and recorded them straight. I don't know what the engineers were hearing when they produced the CDs, but everything sounds pretty horrible. The sound is like everything was recorded with wooden microphones. This is not how the original records sounded, and it is a disservice to all fans of Fiedler to have these recordings misrepresented this way."
