The Platinum Collection

Expecting good things I was very underwhelmed by the sound quality on this disc. Very thin, treble overemphasised. I note that my copy is a Rhino reissue. This detracted from the music which I thought I was going to like. Maybe hits of the 70s/80s sounded as bad as this?

Platinum it is but as noted for the other disc: The Linda Ronstadt recordings Platinum Collection are brilliant, on an HD player through TV to headphones, but these particular discs are I suspect so good, thicker grade plate than usual, and Linda's resonant voice so excellent they bounce the DVD player on the modern notebook computer through the same headphones and it crackles like a southern fried chicken. I am keeping them as they are such good dics, see next review and very much wanted to replace my 1982 LPs, all other DVD and CD play correctly on the computer so if you want to use that as your main source this set is not suitable. Pity, but the disc is superb on HD TV through Sennheiser and it is not that modern an HD player. One of the few times I have had a musician writer and backing "resonate me", although I have heard it happened to the Tacoma Narrows, I have had poor recordings enact such before, but there is nothing wrong with these, just be aware on what they will play. I'll guess other people have them play really well on their computers!! Thanks for the discs delivered at superb pace, very good on better equipment and I am not buying a music dedicated £1000 computer just to listen, I will leave that to the musicians and use the DVD player when the TV is not used.

Great sounds.

The individual songs are supremely performed with passion and clarity, the whole album is a credit to a much underrated I believe artist.

not as I remembered her

Good

.Always loved her voice whatever she has sung. .
