using the Sony PCM 1600 recorder and the Sony
DAE 1100 editor.  AKG & Neumann microphones.

I agree, there are some noisy spots (and some VERY quiet ones, too!).
The crud is probably due to a bad amp.  Too bad someone with ears didn't
review the master before they committed it to a disc!  However, as a
previous submission suggested, it would be difficult to say that it's
worse than a slightly aged vinyl disc.

CD's in the Portland area are going for 15 to 17 dollars.  What are
people in other areas paying for them?
