Poor recording of live performance/s
Semi-funky drummer | Nashville, TN | 08/23/2009
(1 out of 5 stars)
"These are NOT the original studio recordings which we heard on the radio when they were hit songs.The recording quality is very poor. I suspect thatit was recorded with amateur equipment with one stereo microphone in front of the stage far removed from the band. Also, most of the songs are performed at much faster tempos than the original recordings. The words "Live recording" are inscribed on the back side of the container in small letters just above the bar code -- where nobody looks. The tin box housing these recordings is the best thing about this collection and the only reason it deserves even a fraction of one star. Unless you are a fan who wants to have everthing ever released with Brown's name on it, you should avoid this collection like the plague."
