I was both surprised and very impressed by the SHM versions (Japanese imports) of the early Steely Dan CD's ("Can't Buy a Thrill" thru "Gaucho").
+1 on the Steven Wilson remixes of "Fragile" (YES) and "Aqualung" (JETHRO TULL).
@lonemountain, + 1 on Al Schmidt. "Just A Little Lovin'" by Shelby Lynne (primarily Dusty Springfield covers) is a well - known recording among audiophiles. It was produced by Phil Ramone and mixed by Al Schmidt. As my audio system has gotten better, I find myself relegating many of my poorer quality recordings for listening in the car only. |
