The very best sound: Direct to Disc


Since I got a new cartridge (Clear Audio Virtuoso) i’ve rediscovered the Sheffield and RR Direct Disc albums in my collection.  
Wow! they put everything else to shame.  I picked up about twenty Sheffield D2D’s when Tower Records went out of business for a song (no pun intended.) I’m just now listening to them and find there’s nothing that sonically compares.  They’re just more real sounding than anything else.  Not spectacular but realistic.

Can we agree they’re all tepid with the possible exception of For Duke and even then we’re not 100%?  😬
Are Mapleshade recordings the digital equivalent of Direct to Disk recordings? 
But is it music? That’s a LOT of pressure. Just kidding. Not trying to bring you down. 🤗 There’s a Nakamichi cassette of I’ve Got the Music in Me on eBay as we speak for $60.
