642.1 | | AKOV68::BOYAJIAN | A disgrace to the forces of evil | Mon Feb 16 1987 04:26 | 11 |
| I grew up on the Atko release as well, and I bought the CD. I
don't hear anything particularly wrong with it, but it's
evident from other notes in this file that others have more
sensitive ears than mine, or are imagining things.
If you can ever get into BCD (either Harvard Square or Newbury
Street), ask if they can put the disc on the player so you can
hear it. If they have one that's not sealed up, they'll usually
be happy to do so.

642.2 | Fresh Cream | CUPOLA::HAKKARAINEN | Albatross! | Thu Oct 22 1987 10:27 | 11 |
| Just picked up Fresh Cream. I haven't listened to the album for
a long time and, so, was excited to revisit an old favorite.
This is an odd cd to listen to on headphones. The mix is such that
several tracks have a single instrument on a single channel; this tends
to pull my head to the side. Overall, the music is as good as ever;
the sound is fair.
Because I couldn't located my lp copy, I remain puzzled about the
last two tracks on the cd. It seems that ``The Coffee Song'' and
``Wrapping Paper'' weren't on the (American) lp. Correct?

Re: .2
Neither was "Spoonful".
The original U.S. LP replaced "Spoonful" with "I Feel Free" which
didn't appear on the U.K. LP.
"Wrapping Paper" was a U.K. single, "Coffee Song" was previously
unreleased.
All except "I Feel Free" made it onto a Polydor reissue a few years
ago in the U.K.
Getting all four in one spot on the CD to me is a great deal...and
the record company doesn't even advertise it!!!!

642.4 | Wheels of Fire was disappointing | KANE::CASTIGLIONE | Daytona Bound | Wed Jan 25 1989 08:57 | 7 |
| I just picked up "Wheels of Fire" and even at half price for the
2 disk set, it wasn't worth it. The backround noise sounds almost
as bad as an 8 track. It was nice listening to the old Cream stuff,
but definaletly not worth the full price for anybody else thinking
of picking it up.
