A mess... STAY AWAY!!!

Buying this make of SACD is always a matter of surprise and lots of vsriability. The label usually manages to get some sort of master tape and issue it in the format, but this one is terrible. The tapes and performances are up to the usual with Nat King Cole, but the remastering is terrible.

The tracks, as pointed out by another reviewer, do not correspond completely with what is on the disc.

Also, the tapes have been swamped with digital reverberation in order to make surround sound out of material that was monaural or stereo, so instead of giving us an honest reproduction of the original master, the whole thing sounds as if recorded in a cavernous gym...

Not worth the plastic on which it is pressed...
