Another poorly mastered fujii disk

"It's kinda frustrating being a Fujii fan. I bought 5 of her disks at no small expense and none of them have been mastered with care and attention to quality. They all suffer from clipping and distortions during the fortes. This one might be the worst, especially the last minute of the last song--terrible for a jazz disk. It is an insult to people who pay money for these disks to intentionally put out inferior disks, especially when they cost 20-40 dollars a pop.



If you are concerned about sound quality, I would advise against purchasing this disk. Try Live in Japan 2004, but like I said all her disks to a greater or lesser degree suffer from loudness war garbage.



for more info look up 'loudness war' at wikipedia, or google 'pleasurize music' or 'turnmeup'."
