The sound quality for Burning Desire kinda blows for this RealAudio Clip.

The reason for this is:

• The source is tape. Which means I piped it into my PC using my Sony Walkman's headphone jack... shaky quality at best.
• The original source tape was DAT, and copied onto CrO2 tape (one of those gold XL-II Maxell's)
• The recording was a first-run production, so it still needs to be levelled. This is why the bass sounds so loud and the voices are a little soft. And the RealAudio Compression doesn't help much either.

If anyone gets a chance to see BBC in concert (they usually perform at the Casablanca, a niteclub/bar in Bethlehem, PA) their sound is soooo much sweeter than this RealAudio stuff. C'mon Mr. Lunn! Get it on CD already!
