This album was a "coronation" for this singer, more than 12 million records sold it seems? But what about the quality of the recording of the 21 ... almost inaudible on a stereo; it is flat, no image, that face and it's tiring, it smells the studio that produces a product for a lambda-generation deaf. But why artists to the heightened sensitivity as Adele do not care to benefit the quality of registration? This hardly serves and it is a shame for sound engineers who concoct these products. If t they say that now the majority of the audience listening to MP3 on portable phone and it does not matter? It's serious this lack of requirement. In comparison, the DVD and the CD attached to the album of his concert "Live at The Royal Albert Hall" is a marvel! And this becomes recurrent among artists, their performance in LIVE often give much better recordings than studios handling, plate instruments and vocals on top of each other, sound mush ... If I had discovered Adele Album 21, I have never felt the talent, voice and the sensitivity of this artist. Run rather buy the "Live at The Royal Albert Hall" DVD plus CD and forget the rest.
