Thanks. I dont think I realised just how complicated this is.

I installed VLC then

VLC can handle but not Rhythmbox

   Forth Valley Chorus:    OK in VLC      not ok in Rhythmbox
   Best of Frank Zappa:    OK in VLC      not ok in Rhythmbox
   Classic Van Morrison:   OK in VLC      not ok in Rhythmbox
   Best of Van Morrison:   OK in VLC      ok in Rhythmbox tho cant select a 
later track

Neither can handle

   Patty Smith Easter:     1 second of reasonable sound - then silence and VLC 
stops responding ie I cant play another track
                           ditto bad in Rhythmbox
   Frank Zappa Hot Rats:   1 second of reasonable sound - then silence and VLC 
stops responding ie I cant play another track
                           ditto bad in Rhythmbox
   Patty Smith Horses:     a few seconds of very fuzzy sound - background buzz 
then silence
                           ditto bad in Rhythmbox

Looks like I should use VLC and maybe buy some new CDs and make a backup this
time.

When I tested in May I didnt do a rigorous set of tests, just played Hot Rats 
and it was
fine.
