Bettye LaVette

Another stunner from this magnificent artist!  Just now have the opportunity to play her new recording, Blackbirds, and its stunning.  Produced by the great Steve Jordan, Mastered by the great Greg Calbi (of whom I am terribly envious, he masters all of Dylan's recordings).  This Bettye LaVette album (I have it on standard CD) is simply magnificent, wonderful wonderful soulful singing, magnificent recording, and over the top song selection; there is a theme.  Take a listen, you will have no regrets if you do.

All the best to everyone-

Richard

I got it on a CD, and of course its quiet.  And, of course, I love it.  A wonderful recording.  As is the previous release by this stunning artist.  The Dylan one. Oh my.

I noticed there is no info about recording process.  I remember most of older CDs had designation next to Compact Disk logo, like ADD - meaning Analog recording, Digital mixing, Digital media.  Some of classical recordings listed exact model of the recording device and name of the recording engineer.  Nothing on latest CDs.  Why?
