Quite good for 1940s radio broadcasts

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I was a little hesitant about buying this collection -- sometimes transcriptions of radio broadcasts from the 1940s can be a little less than stunning, in terms of audio quality.



Listening to the sound samples provided by Amazon convinced me that this would be a good purchase, and indeed it was. The audio quality is, for the most part, quite good. Some of the tracks are easily as good as studio recordings of the era, while other contain minor distortion or noise in places. The recordings are remarkably free of hiss, also.



And, of course, it's the fabulous Dinah Shore singing. She glides effortlessly through a wide variety of material here in her unique and flawless style. A must of the true Dinah Shore fan."
