Question Regarding Haunted Mansion "Disneyland Park" CD

[The Mouse Info]

I might have asked this long ago but can't remember back nor did I come up with anything in the way back machine. Does anyone else's Haunted Mansion "Disneyland Park" CD have a loud pop noise before each track? I have bought two of them and both have the same issues before each track. Was this something done on purpose? Was it a bad press? Does the limited edition version of the CD have this same problem? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Did you buy yours from Disneyland? I have this problem on some CD-R's that I burn myself but I don't think it manifests itself regularly, and it seems to always be when I listen to it on my PC, not anywhere else. As near as i can figure it's almost as if the flaw is not usually recognized, but the computer alone picks it up sometimes and you hear that POP. Not 100% certain but that's what it seems like to me. And no my Mansion CD doesn't have that.

I did purchase mine from Disneyland, and the second one from Walt Disney World. As far as I can tell X-S, the problem only occurs when played on my computer as well. Importing the CD via iTunes retains the pop. Although if played normally on a CD player, it sounds fine. I'm at a loss.

I found the work-around for importing it without the pop. I just needed to change the start time in iTunes. 8)
