Good music; some tracks flawed by noise

If there had been a Top 40 Billboard chart back when these tracks were new, many of them would have made the chart. Other bands of the era also played and recorded these same tunes.
Unfortunately, several of the tracks are marred by clicks, crackle and hiss. This is totally unnecessary in the 21st century, as the clean tracks on this same album show. There are other Glen Miller albums that have been properly cleaned up, so buy one of those instead. There are much older jazz tracks that are free from noise on the Ken Burns Jazz 5 CD set, for example, so there's no excuse for this sort of noise today.
I'm sorry that I didn't hear the noise on the tracks when I previewed them before downloading the album. I think the noise may explain the price of $4.99 for 25 tracks. Too bad, the music is enjoyable and is of considerable historical interest.
I've been cleaning up the noise with Nero Wave Editor, but I don't think that this should have been necessary.
