.. it’s a pleasure to return to La bohème in a set that might not be perfect but undoubtedly features great singers. Enjoyment is increased through the remastering efforts of Michael Dutton, who has successfully resolved some sonic issues in the original RCA release on LP and subsequent CD reissues." "I can’t exaggerate the stunning beauty of Price’s singing here, and the voice sounds completely natural in Dutton’s remastering."
