I just do not understand how one can produce such a Club release and then: 2 pages of Jon B. notes. Come on! It feels wrong in my view but they do not care about us moaning anyway. So, let‘s enjoy the music.

In my opinion, the issues raised here are quite minor. It's easy to overlook the fact that they went back to fix a significant problem. In response to their efforts, we now have a group of critics who are complaining about what I believe are trivial matters. These distractions overshadow the fact that they invested the funds to address several problems, hired Jon Burlingame, and paid Chas Ferry to restore and remaster everything. Ultimately, they released a two-CD set of a 40-year-old score from a TV mini-series.
Overall, I think they did a commendable job. Is it too long? Yes, but I'm no different in that regard. Nevertheless, I'm happy to have a much better version than the one that was produced previously.
We also don’t know the condition of the elements they were using.
After reading this thread, I wonder why anyone would undertake this sort of project if this is how they are treated.
In short, the positive aspects are being vastly overlooked in favor of these trivial issues.
Nothing in this life is perfect, but the new edition is in the mid-90s in quality.
You can continue to criticize it as you please, but I'm happy with it in its current form.
Just my two cents.

I criticize the terrible booklet… as it is.

It's a re-release of the old 2-CD set from 2004 with the same contents and track listing and only one error fixed.
More than one track has the dulcimer corrections.
