Free Music Notes for The Remains of Tom Lehrer
Free Music Review: Disappointing
Hit: 1 Stars
This boxed set of 3 CDs and a book is an overall disappointment. The book is great, with lots of information, and I'm glad to have it. Disk 1 is the full set of old works appearing on other single CDs. Disk 3 is mostly repititious, with an added handful of non-satirical childrens songs.Disk 2 is very poor - it consists of the same set of songs, this time as live performances, each preceeded by comments by Lehrer and followed by audience applause. The sound volume of the comments is quite low, the performances are at an appropriate sound level, and the applause sections are deafening - the result is that each of the 24 songs requires three volume adjustments. I wish I hadn't bought it - too steep a price to pay for a CD-sized book.
Free Music Review: The Same Songs, 3 times on a 3 set CD box?
Hit: 1 Stars
I was very disappointed that the same songs are repeated upwards of three times on the the three cd set.If this was publicized, why would anyone buy such a ridiculous set?
Although I am a tom Lehrer fan, I really feel that I was 'bait and switched'....this should have been a 2 volume set, perhaps...and priced, accordingly...
