3. Keith Jarret, Live at the Blue Note(ECM/HD Tracks)

I actually think that maybe the new Sound Liaison album from Andre Heuvelman, After Silence also could be no.1 or 2,but one album per label is maybe enough.

What is your top 3 ?

had a great review;

....have managed to strike a balance between intimacy of the performance and the soundstage in the big way, better than numerous other albums on which the sound engineers have tried the same! Really well done. This is a superb recording in every respect: tonal balance, timing, spatial delineation etc. And it’s a pleasure to listen to!

No Spotify, no Tidal

Note that the albums by the Sound Liaision are not available on streaming services such as Spotify and Tidal. Why? Here’s the explanation: “Because the audio quality on these streaming sites is simply not good enough, and the music of the Sound Liaison does not fit the spotify mould where the chorus of a song tends to start within 15-30 seconds. And last but not least, we want to pay our artists their fair share of the profits being made.”


That sampler is excellent if you want an album to see what audiophile is all about. Even if you don't believe in audiophile it is a must have, so you know what you are missing. And the music is superb.
The new   Patricia Barber album; Clique, is really well recorded and played. Highly recommended.
