I decided to purchase the new batch of 2015 CD albums using a Christmas/Birthday Amazon gift voucher only to receive unsealed CDs.

Has anyone else received theirs unsealed and/or scratched ? :(

Not had a chance to listen to them yet.

What about the artwork? Is this time without mistakes? Can someone scan the backcovers, the discs, please? I don't found them on the web. Thanks! :wink:

Greetings,

Why not simply trying to use some news section on the official web site for a change? :P
I agree, too…

I found only Zoolook and Chronology. The Disques Dreyfus and BMG logos not appeared in this second set of releases:

That Chronology back cover actually looks pretty nice.

Not gonna make up for the other issues, though :P

(For example, how the first part of Chronologie 1 fades out very abruptly)

What about the boring backcovers of "Revolutions" and "Waiting for Cousteau"? The original and the remastered one (1987) from "Rendez-Vous" was nice! :wink:

Maybe someone can show them all here? :wink:

The 5 albums arrived today from Germany. Quick listening is disappointing sadly, however one HUGE issue is the horrendous pitch bend and reverb during the first minute of R2 Part 1.

What were they thinking. Anyone else notice it?

These albums are clearly remasters with tin can in mind, not headphones or speakers. Boosted like crazy, the subtlety of all the music has gone. LOUD LOUD LOUD WITH EXTRA BOOST AND PITCH BENDS IF YOU PLEASE.
