I've also noticed this with ney recordings, such as the soundtrack to the
film 'The Sweet Hereafter'. On my digital MD copy there's an intermittent
squeaky, buzzy noise. It also happens on a recording I have with an Armenian
reed instrument - can't remember the name of either the instrument or the
CD.
Perhaps there's some problem between the MD format and instruments from the
Black Sea/Caucasus regions :-)
