 |  | Ignore the primitive recording, listen to the performances. |  |
If you are interested in hearing the documents that launched the gramophone (or phonograph) as a serious recording medium, rather than a toy, then this is the disc to listen to. Of course, 100 years ago, the recording and reproducing process was very primitive, and current digital processing capabilities cannot really compensate for that. But, except for one very poor edit, the transfers from the original 78rpm discs are excellent.
Ignoring the recording deficiencies, what you can hear are marvelously enthusiastic performances by the greatest tenor ever to make records.
Simple as that. March 13, 2002
 | | Nevermind the quality of sound, listen for the music | |
This is a sturdy collection of songs, with the most famous pieces of the period (1902-1903, but the sound quality is lacking.The songs are recorded before the age of digital everything, the popping and cracking of the tracks could add charm or ruin the cd-depending on taste. Yet, the songs are incredibly beautiful and are worth a listen.
