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 .

The DVD version is supposed to be remarkable. You should read some of the reviews. Soundkeeper offered two versions of the "CD" and one version of a DVD(-R). I bought the CD-R which was reproduced from the original hard drive recording (at a slow bit rate to insure low errors) They also have a "commercial" CD version too.

The DVD version received phenomonal reviews from the "golden ears" community. At this time I do not have the hardware to play back a DVD through my rig, but I will order a copy soon for future references.

After viewing their site for more details I suggest you try contacting SoundKeeper directly (Barry Diament's new label)

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.
Thanks for the info and recomendation. I never heard of AIX before. Currently I don't have a set-up to audition audio DVD formats. I should in the future and will give some AIX (John Gorka ?) recordings a spin. Thanks again
