Linn's Jazz channel...Absolutely love it. Introduced me to Nikki Yanofksy...her voice is wonderful. |
The 50th Anniversary "Super Deluxe" edition of George Harrison's All Things Must Pass on Qobuz Hi-Res. It includes a bunch of extras curated by his son Dhani. I'm not sure I'll spend the 4 1/2 hours to wade through all the extras, but the album proper sounds really wonderful. |
Son Volt - Electro Melodier, Qobuz Hi-Res. |
Lump - Animal, Qobuz Hi-Res. This is one of my favorite recent discoveries, very cool blend of electronica and folkish songs. |
Somewhere over the rainbow - Tony Overwater, Qobuz |
Take The ‘A’ Train - Ray Brown Trio, Qobuz |
Prince - Welcome 2 America, Qobuz Hi-Res. A "found" album. It was Prince, so there's that, but it was kind of "meh". |
Diana Krall - Almost Blue, Qobuz Hi-Res |
Chick Corea - Return to Forever, Qobuz hi-res |
More L.A. themed music - Naia Izumi - A Residency in the Los Angeles Area, Qobuz Hi-Res. This guy has some chops! It's in the "soul" category, but it could also fall into funk, prog rock, or jazz. There's some really nice guitar work and the production is really good. |
Los Lobos - Native Sons, Qobuz Hi-Res. This is a really cool set of cover songs (except for one original composition) of artists from L.A., all tastefully done. |
Billie Eilish - Happier than Ever, Qobuz Hi-Res. I really like this, she has a great voice and the lyrics are really sharp and insightful and the production is great.
|
Darkside - Spiral, Qobuz Hi-Res. Pretty cool mix of electronics and guitars that doesn't fit into a neat "category". |
Dee Gees (Foo Fighters) - Hail Satin, Qobuz. I'm not really a Foo Fighters fan, and thought I wouldn't care for a Bee Gees tribute, but they actually did a very good and respectful homage to the Bee Gees. Unfortunately, there are some Foo Fighters songs at the end, which don't hold up to the Bee Gees songs, not to mention the stark contrast it creates. |
disconapse Album: progress Suggested first listen: wrong number or hailey's comet Amazon HD
Yes, lower case lol. |
@big_greg Thank you for the recommendation, I was going to miss that gem (Alice Coltrane) |
Alice Coltrane - Kirtan: Turiya Sings, Qobuz Hi-Res.
These are some "found" (by her son Ravi) recordings of her chanting in Sanksrit accompanied by her Wurlitzer organ, which on the surface, doesn't sound like a fun time, but her voice and the organ are very soothing and I found it a very enjoyable listen. |
Stevie Wonder - Songs in the Key of Life
Qobuz Hi-Res
Released 45 years ago, and still holds it own. |
Attacca Quartet - Real Life, Qobuz Hi-Res. What do you get when you mix a classical string quartet with electronica? This. I like it.
|
Been on the road again checking in with the parental units. Back home and relaxing in my music room, checking the new stuff on Qobuz
Jam & Lewis - Jam & Lewis Vol 1 in Hi-Res Good, old-fashioned R&B. It’ll get you hopping on the dance floor.
Os Mutantes - Os Mutantes
They have been called a Brazilian version of the Velvet Underground because of their wide-ranging effect on musica popular do brasil (MPB). If you are curious at all about Brazilian music, please check this out. |
Robben Ford - Blue Moon Amazon HD |
Grant Lee Buffalo. Jubilee |

Dustin O'Halloran, exploring pretty much everything that's on Qobuz. |
ABB - Trouble No More
all day worthwhile adventure……. |
Lots of Kenny Durham all afternoon, and at the moment, the wonderful Finnish pianist, Aki Rissanen, solo and with his longstanding trio members Antti Lotjonen and Teppo Makynen |
Tina Brooks - True Blue
Qobuz Hi-Res
Classic Blue Note Jazz from a great session saxophonist. Apparently this is the only album he released in his lifetime. |
loomisjohnsonOne of the reasons I like streaming is that it is easier to find things I overlooked. There’s lots of music out there, not just the same old stuff I’ve listened to in the past. I love a new (to me) discovery. |
16f4, I envy you your initiation |
Big Star- #1 Album
Qobuz
A pleasant surprise! I was reading an article on Shortlist “The 55 Coolest Albums of All Time” (I’m a list junkie…) and came across this on. Never heard of the group or the album, but I certainly recognized much of the music. The third song, “In The Street”, was the theme for That 70s Show. All around cool album. |
Sting & Shaggy - 44/876
Qobuz Hi-Res
After Big Mess, I needed some happy music.
|
big_greg, I agree with you about Big Mess. Not what I expected. Danny Elfman - Big Mess Qobuz Hi-Res |
Danny Elfman - Big Mess, Qobuz Hi-Res. I believe this is only his second solo album. It's not a movie soundtrack, which is what he is known for (along with being the frontman for Oingo Boingo). Probably not what you might expect. |
Mingus fantastic :-) another reason to own a killer DAC |
Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real - A Few Stars Apart, Qobuz Hi-Res. I'm not usually much of a country fan, but this is really easy to listen to.
|
Sleater-Kinney - Path of Wellness, Qobuz. I liked this a lot, they seem to have matured a lot as musicians and songwriters. That might not be a plus for fans of their early output, but I think it's more "accessible". |
@16f4 The musicianship was really great on that recording also. It seemed like everyone was "on". |
big_gregi was listening to the Mingus album on my HIFIMAN 400s. Great SQ and staging. |
Charles Mingus - Mingus At Carnegie Hall (Deluxe Edition) [2021 Remaster] [Live] (Live), Qobuz. Fantastic!
|
Garbage - No Gods No Masters, Qobuz Hi-Res
|
@16f4 -- I clicked on the Qobuz Home Page's "In the Heights" soundtrack, too. Excellent sound. To my ears the vocals were multi-miked but the sound was still spacious, clear & beautiful overall. Trouble is, despite the quality of the performances, eventually the music's sameness got the best of me. |
Julian Lage - Squint
Qobuz Hi-Res
Gentle guitar Jazz, reminiscent of Lenny Breau. |
Soundtrack - In The Heights
Qobuz Hi-Res
Great energetic soundtrack! Never saw the musical on stage but I am eager to see the film. |
mrklasany particular albums you listened to? Any opinions on what you heard? |
|
Elastica- Elastica
Qobuz
Continuing my search for missed 90s pop. |
The Posies - Frosting in the Beater
Qobuz
Nice early 90s pop music. Not sure how I missed it. |
|
Right now I'm enjoying absolutely wonderful sound on a Primephonic (cd quality?) stream of the complete ballet Coppelia by Leo Delibes. A Decca recording with Richard Bonynge conducting l'Orchestre de la Swisse Romande. Sweet as a nut. Ample soundstaging. Fine bass & dynamics. Tunes galore. |
Band of Horses - "Acoustic at the Ryman" |
