I just learned that Young Bess has been released in extended form by a shady German label, you all know who I mean ! I hope that Lukas can beat these bums,by giving us some hopeful indication that FSM will give us a legit release of this fine score soon ?

We have not started on such a project but I have always planned on doing it. Avoid shady German bootlegs!!! LK

I was enjoying listening to the Bernstein-conducted FSM disc of Young Bess today for the first time in ages (I usually play the soundtrack version also from FSM). I'm not sure if this was asked previously, but in Track 9 of the Bernstein disc (DESPERATE LOVE / CROSSROADS / CATHERINE PARR'S END) at about 2:16 and for a few seconds thereafter, there is what I assumed was very pronounced CD mis-tracking. But later listening to the very same piece on Spotify, the same "fault" is apparent in the same place. That suggests the fault is in the source material, but it sounds much more like a skipping CD error than tape damage to my amateur ears. Can others confirm the skipping is simply a tape defect, and not a batch problem on some but not all the discs?

I don’t hear any defect at 2:16 on. I played it twice from the 2 minute mark. Nothing but music. Thanks for checking your copy. However, apart from my copy, the one on Spotify exhibits the same effect in the same place in Track 9. Like three or four skips in swift succession.

I checked my copy - no skips or artifacts at the point you cite. Perhaps there was a run of discs with defects, including the one used for Spotify? Thanks again. Looks like it might be as you suggest. Some small consolation... according to the supplementary notes of the Rozsa Treasury edition, the particular section of music in question wasn't used in the final film and was "apparently the only significant piece of music left on the cutting-room floor". And here's something slightly amusing... I see that the track correctly listed as "Eavesdropping" in the FSM editions is listed in the Tsunami release as "Eve's Dropping".

No defects on my copy, I'm happy to say. Sorry about yours.
