'Rough mix'?
'Rough mix'?
When I play disc 1 of Book of Longing in iTunes, the title tag reads "Book of Longing (rough mix)". Disc 2 just says "Book of Longing." I imagine this is some kind of error or joke made by the tagger, but I'd be interested to know if it appears on other people's copies as well.

It does.
The production and mix aren't on a high level. I hear - on my mp3 player - Leonard's voice only in left channell, while some instruments 8viola) is only in right channel thru complete recording. It's much better when I play it on my Hi-Fi stereo.
While booklet and art cover/layout are designed beautiful (Leonard, Michael Petit, design of the original Book), CDs are evry cheap - ordinary colour added in Photoshop on both CDs and their plastic cases looks VERY cheaply.
