What is the worst recorded CD you have?

I'm with Tim, Byrd's greatest hits. Sounds like it was mastered on a cassette deck (a bad one).

Most of my bootlegs.

"Worst recorded", that's kind of a tough call if you only get to pick one, Raw Power (Iggy and the Stooges) is pretty stinko, Soft Machine 3 is a crime too. Lots of stuff was dang lousy in the seventies and then got a poor transfer to digital. In lots of cases yer' better off letting the tunes playback in your head.

To Ozfly and Marakanetz, try the "Islands" 30th anniversary edition."A Sailor's Tale" never sounded better. Crimson's entire catalog has been remastered using 24 bit mapping and the HDCD process. The cover art is the original "nebula" photo that graced the import. As far as my worst CD, it would be the first CD I bought;"In the Court of the Crimson King". I held off for 5 years on buying a CD player until the great vinyl drought of 1990
