Madeline Peyroux/dreamland


I just received the Madeline Peyroux CD "Dreamland" and cannot believe what a hack job was done recording her voice. This is a 1996 release and she clips and distorts on every track. Thats just ridiculous for a modern release and HDCD no less.

I think madeleine is terrific. i'm so disapointed with the CD quality though. I am listening to an Atlantic recording "dreamland" CD/HDCD and the # is 0-7567-82946-24. 1996. Whoever mastered and mixed this should be ashamed. In fact its on the liner notes...Michael O'Reilly what a dunce.

Consider Dreamland one of my better recordings. She is amazing, regardless, and I do not doubt for a moment that any person would find even this recording to fall a bit short of doing her full justice.
Rummy, give us the scoop on your system. See what a simple little post about a simple little cd can do? Might cost you thousands to hear Dreamland the way we all hear it. Then again, might be a very inexpensive thing. Got to be careful on the 'gon. Any post can cost us. It's the nature of this audiophoolish hobby. I've been there, done that myself. peace, warren
