Denkt mal drüber nach, warum Schellack-Platten geliebt wurden, CDs aber nicht.

Perfektion war’s nicht.

Years ago I had noticed that record companies don't use anymore the word "stereo" (and HiFi, etc.) on their CDs and on their CD packages. Therefore, I had enjoyed myself a little bit: I put on the back side (upper right corner) of the five THE ULTIMATE EDITION boxes some keywords that I have often seen on LPs during the fifties and sixties (number 4 is my own creation):

- stereo
- non-breakable under normal use
- electro
- schulzesque
- instrumental

By the way: has anyone noticed, that some of the sets' historical recordings – taken from so-called "echo tapes" – are not at all in stereo? I call it: double mono.
