I recently picked this up on eBay. It is an import CD from the U.K. I have mixed feelings about this CD. First off, at 2:13 into the first track there is a definite sound glitch in the left channel. I also believe that these sources were taken from vinyl and not from the Capitol masters. The liner notes are very vague. Nothing about how the Ports of Pleasure album actually had 2 extra tracks on it that you do not get with these stereo copies. The stereo ones are available though. There are other differences as well between the mono and stereo copies. Still, it is nice to have both these classic Exotica albums on one CD. It is hard to complain too loudly. Cheers and Mahalo, |
