What are you streaming tonight?


As we are in the modern age of music I thought I would see how this fares.
We have threads specific for cdp and tt so why not streaming as it is a modern media.
I don't care if you stream Tidal, Deezer, Spotify, Paradise Radio or any number of internet stations.
I would like you to share your tastes and method of streaming.

Uber, I wasn't aware of this release, so it was cool when it popped up on Qobuz.  He was really into jazz and has a couple of jazz recordings also.
Jeff Healey - Heal My Soul (Deluxe Edition), Qobuz Hi-Res.  For a "lost" album (culled from stuff he left behind after he passed away), this is really good.

Fourplay - S/T, Qobuz Hi-Res.  Sounds nice, but a little too "smooth" for my tastes.

I was out in the truck tonight and heard Neil on the radio. It put me in the mood for some more. Neil Young - Greatest Hits. Qobuz 
@reubent The "deluxe" version has about 10 live tracks after the album proper. It's a nice listen. 
Meryem Aboulouafa - Meryem, Qobuz Hi-Res, lovely voice, interesting music and lyrics.
I didn't take it as criticism. I don't always listen in a critical way and found your comments insightful. 
@ghjuvanni I agree with going with personal experience.  Mine has been different than yours. 

So in effect, you're saying that the input into the DAC makes no difference whatsoever - a computer, a Raspberry Pi, a high-end standalone streamer, ethernet, USB, coax, BNC, optical, I2S, etc. other than the bit rates they are capable of transmitting.
The Rolling Stones - Goats Head Soup, Qobuz Hi-Res.  This is one of my favorite Stones albums and it's sounding really good.  I'm not sure whether it's due to what they did in the Hi-Res mix or if it's the Schiit Bifrost 2 multibit DAC I'm trying out in my computer system, but it sounds better than I remember.  It's a deluxe version, with almost 3 hours of songs, not sure I'll make it through all of it.
GoGo Penguin - GoGo Penguin, Qobuz Hi-Res This is nice background music.

I listened to the new Norah Jones on my home office system yesterday while working and really liked what I heard.  I hope to give it a more serious listen today.
I listened to Christian McBride's New Jawn last night.  I really liked it, reminds me a lot of Ornette Coleman, some good free form instrumentals.
Nick Lowe - Lay It On Me, Qobuz Hi-Res.  This one didn't really click for me.
@uberwaltz I was off in the woods camping for a few days with no tunes. Catching up a little! I agree about Nick Lowe, the older stuff was really good.
I've listened to the new Norah Jones on Qobuz three times now. I really like it. 
@uberwaltz I think it's cool he's been able to pursue something completely different that he obviously loves and find a following.
I have a couple of Blackmore's Night CD's. I wasn't familiar with it and it was not what I was expecting, lol. My girlfriend really likes them. 
David Crosby - If I Could Only Remember My Name, Qobuz

I saw him perform live about a year ago and watched the documentary Remember My Name a week or two ago.  Quite an interesting guy.  
I just listened to the Teal Album by Weezer this morning.  It felt like a loving tribute to music they must have grown up with, I really enjoyed it.
@uberwaltz That's a good description for the Teal album also.  I really enjoyed it.  The Santana EP was really nice also, I was wishing there was more when it reached the end.
My new (to me) Audeze LCD4's showed up yesterday!  I'm listening to the Cars - Heartbeat City.
I haven't heard the EL8. I have LCD-2 and LCD-XC. The LCD-4 are the best headphones I've heard. My girlfriend is listening to the remaster of the white album with them right now. Thank goodness she's supportive of my hobby! 
Uber, if you liked her first album I think you'll enjoy the new one.  Not because it copies the first one, there's a lot of originality, but it also feels familiar and comfortable.
Crosby & Nash - S/T, Qobuz
Crosby Stills Nash & Young - Deja Vu, Qobuz Hi-Res
@bkeske Interesting observations. That wasn't the reason why I qualified my recommendation with "if you liked her first album". I do love her voice and her phrasing. 
Steve Hackett - Genesis Revisited: Live at the Royal Albert Hall, Qobuz Hi-Res
uber, yes, it's really good.  I've always liked Susan Tedeschi and I also like Derek Trucks, but I've never paid much attention to their band.  That record made me really want to see them live, I can imagine it's a great show!  I'll have to dig into some of their other recordings.
Just listened to Weezer's Black Album (liked it a lot!), now I'm playing Tom Petty - The Best of Everything (Tidal).
