Ahmad Jamal, "Blue Moon" was referred to me a few years ago. I still use the song "Morning Mist" as a reference to evaluate equipment. |
Blue Moon is an excellent disc- 4hannnons.

I found a couple of artists in Tidal’s Folk/Americana genre that I think are pretty good sonically and musically:
Chelsea Williams - Boomerang
Robert Francis - Indian Summer
These are not what most people consider folk music. Both are pretty electronic. I’d call them 21st century singer/songwriter. Definitely worth checking out if you can stream them to see if they’re your cup of tea.
Linda Ronstadt - Hummin’ to Myself
Linda’s second to last album. Great American Songbook with a small jazz
band. Most like Diana Krall’s earlier stuff. Not a whiff of country or rock on it, but if you like Linda’s voice, she gives it a pretty good workout here and it hasn’t lost any of its greatness at this point. |
Elton John, Tumbleweed Connection, - The Classic Years
Includes the original version of "Madman Across the Water"

Alan Pasqua et al - The Antisocial Club
Allen Toussaint - The Bright Mississippi
Andy Summers - The Last Dance of Mr. X |
I love CDs! Love this thread. @tomcy6 take your tidal recos elsewhere! :) I do find CDs sound better than Tidal if using comparable DACs.
Anyway some of my faves for depth and detail:
David Bowie - Blackstar
Deerhunter - Halcyon Digest
Phil Collins - Face Value
Bon Iver - Bon Iver
Ibeyi - Ash

leemaze, They're all available on cd. Tidal is a great way to find music that you would never hear otherwise. Then you can decide if one or two listens is enough or if you need to buy the cd. |
Stevie ray Vaughan / Couldn't stand the weather
Donald Fagan / the nightfly
Katie Meula / piece by piece
Al Kooper Steve Stills Mike Bloomfield /supersessions |

+many more. I ran out of patience, typing. CDs are awesome, despite what people make them out to be. LPs were not great when they came out, I believe. They reached certain tech to make them sound as good as they are. CDs are reaching there, much faster with the newer DACs and improvements.
A totally different recommendation, if you like New Orleans Jazz - "Louis Ford and His New Orleans Flairs - Vintage Jazz". Very live! |
