Diana Krall - This Dream Of You, Qobuz Hi-Res. I really liked this from the start. It's very intimate sounding and the song choices are great. Then I look at Allmusic and they only gave it 3 stars. There's no accounting for taste, and I'm certainly not a tastemaker. I like it better than anything I've heard from her recently.

Christian McBride Big Band - For Jimmy, Wes and Oliver, Qobuz Hi-Res. Really digging this also.
|
Prince - Sign O' The Times, Qobuz |
Deftones - Ohms, Qobuz, Hi-res. Think I'll have to finish this off tomorrow or I'll have some pissed off neighbors. |
It's really good Uber! Forty years in and still kicking ass. |
Patricia Barber – Verve, Qobuz |
Sufjan Stevens - The Ascension, Qobuz Hi-Res
|
Snarky Puppy - Tell Your Friends, Qobuz
|
Sylvan Esso - Free Love, Qobuz Hi-Res
|
Anna von Hausswolff - All Thoughts Fly, Qobuz. Nothing like a little droning pipe organ music to start the morning! Seriously though, this is pretty cool stuff.
|
A Certain Ratio - ACR Loco, Qobuz Hi-Res. Funky!
|
The Pretty Things - Bare as Bone, Bright as Blood, Qobuz Hi-Res
|
Roger Waters - Us + Them, Qobuz Hi-Res |
Nickel Creek - This Side, Qobuz. Hi-Res. Haven't listened to this in forever, what a great collection of music. |
Róisín Murphy - Róisín Machine, Qobuz
|
Robert Plant - Digging Deep: Subterranea, Qobuz |
What headphones did you get 16f4? |
I think uber might be off working somewhere. He usually contributes a lot. I have a lot of headphones too. I haven't tried anything from Meze yet. |
Headphones can be a rabbit-hole! It's like having a whole bunch of different speakers that you can change out really easily. |
Richard Thompson - Action Packed: The Best Of The Capitol Years, Qobuz |
Blue Öyster Cult - The Symbol Remains
|
Nicholas Lens - LITANIES, Qobuz Hi-Res
|
I started listening to Blue Öyster Cult - The Symbol Remains but didn't have a chance to listen to it all. I'm about halfway through now and so far, I'd say this is one of their best releases. Some great songwriting and excellent playing. |
The Allman Brothers - Eat A Peach, Qobuz Hi-Res |
@16f4 I received my download link for the FLAC files this morning, but haven't had a chance to listen yet. Hopefully I'll receive the vinyl soon! |
Blue Note re:imagined, Qobuz |
@16f4 I was referring to wildflowers. I really like the new Tea for the Tillerman. It's different, but enjoyable. |
Eagles - The Long Run, Qobuz hi-res. I was trying to listen to and enjoy the new Live From The Forum release but it was just... boring |
Norah Jones - Pick Me Up Off The Floor (Deluxe Edition), Qobuz Hi-Res. After listening to her new album 2 or 3 times, I enjoy it more each time. "Timeless" seems like a good description of her work. The Deluxe Edition has some great extras, but I could do without the home recordings. |
Metallica - S&M (with Michael Kamen Conducting the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra) [Live at the Berkeley Community Theater, Berkeley, CA, 4/21-22/1999], Qobuz Hi-Res. Not a bad way to start a Friday morning!
|
Pearl Jam - MTV Unplugged, Qobuz hi-res |
Songhoy Blues - Optimisme, Qobuz Hi-Res
|
The Beatles - Let It Be, Qobuz Hi-Res. Sound quality on this is excellent, you feel like you're sitting in the studio with them.
|
Bruce Springsteen - Letter To You, Qobuz Hi-Res. I'm not a huge Bruce fan, but really enjoyed this. I think it's the best thing he's done in a long time. |
Melody Gardot - Sunset In The Blue, Qobuz Hi-Res. Beautifully recorded, listening on my near field computer system, it sounds almost likes she's singing at a lounge just a few feet in front of me.
|
Sharon Jones & The Dap-kings - Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Rendition Was In), Qobuz Hi-Res
|
Joe Bonamassa - Royal Tea, Qobuz
|
Sun Ra Arkestra - Swirling, Qobuz Hi-Res
|
Keith Jarrett - Budapest Concert, Qobuz Hi-Res |
Grateful Dead - American Beauty, 50th Anniversary deluxe edition, Qobuz hi-rez. Holy smokes! |
Stevie Nicks - Live In Concert The 24 Karat Gold Tour, Qobuz Hi-Res. I really like this. There are some lesser known songs that are really good and it feels like she breathes new life into some of the songs that you've heard thousands of times. There was an interview with her on NPR yesterday where she talked about the song choices and about Tom Petty, among other things.
|
Ibrahim Maalouf - 40 Melodies, Qobuz Hi-Res. @16f4 I really like this also!
|
David Bowie - Metrobolist (aka The Man Who Sold The World) [2020 Mix], Qobuz Hi-Rez
|
Dino Saluzzi - Albores, Qobuz Hi-Res
|
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Unlimited Love, Qobuz Hi Res. Really liking it so far.
|
AC/DC - Power Up, Qobuz Hi-Res. This might be the best record they've done in a long time! |
Gillian Welch - Boots No. 2: The Lost Songs, Vol. 3, Qobuz Hi-Res |
Henry Cow - Unrest, Qobuz Hi-Res |
Johnny Cash - Johnny Cash and The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Qobuz Hi-Res |
@16f4 I listened to that Young Marble Giants release earlier today. I never heard of them either. That was pretty cool stuff. |
