[kj] 'Original' Unperverted Pantomime review

[Neil Perry]

Don't know if a gatherer wrote this Amazon review, but perhaps worth taking
note of
before you shell out to Plastichead or whoever. (And why buy from
Plastichead when
it is available on Amazon....?)
And going on this review, why buy at all?

This is an appalling product, as it just seems to be a direct copy of the
cassette version to a CD, without any remastering or even hiss reduction.
The first 4 tracks are already available in great quality on the BBC
Sessions CD - the versions on here are just terrible quality and not worth
listening to.
The other tracks from the original cassette are for the collector only. Some
have already been released on the "other" Unperverted Pantomime CD, and as
better quality versions too.

To add insult to injury, the "free" DVD is one that is freely available (ie
for NOTHING) at a well-known torrent hosting site. The text notes are even
copied verbatim from that website too !

I have this album on original cassette (number 1602) and it is just as good
as this so-called digital version. Don't waste your money.
