One of my all time favorites is the AIX recording of John Gorka - Live Gypsy. He has Michael Manring on fretless bass and the sound is astounding. The package comes with a two sided video DVD, a DVD Audio and a CD. Interesting comparisones, but the songs are so good, and the video so well done that it's a great experience to share.
Best Sounding CD + dvd
I found a new label www.soundkeeperrecordings.com and Art Halperin's album entitled LIFT was quite an ear opener. Great sound; and excellent performance. This is a basically a "Direct to disk" type of "live" recording; 2 michrophones; super well engineered (by Barry Diament). I recommend you try a listen. They have it available in a 16/44 CD and a "hi res" 24/96 DVD .
