H.E.R. - I Used To Know Her
Qobuz Hi-Res
I caught her on SNL, but the SQ was horrible. Thought I would check out one of her albums, and it is actually quite nice. Sort of a Lauren Hill vibe. |

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.

Jerry Jeff Walker - Viva Terlingua
+1; RIP - from this 8th generation Texan! |
Songhoy Blues - Optimisme, Qobuz Hi-Res
|
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. |
Pearl Jam - MTV Unplugged, Qobuz hi-res |
slawin addition to finding so much new music through Qobuz, I now spend my limited resources on headphones (just bought Drop Meze 99’s) and speakers (I just scored some Zu Audio Dirty Weekends!). |
new diana krall - pays homage to tommy lipuma - nice tunes... well recorded but since the tracks were from three different sessions over time, they are a little inconsistent in SQ |
Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings - Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Rendition Was In)
Qobuz Hi-Res |
Nope. Finding so much new music on my streamer. |
@16f4,
Wish you still had a record spinner? |

R.I.P. I’ll make some sangria wine tonight and think about all the chicken fried steak I would eat in Luckenbach, Viva Terlingua playing in the background, when I was a student at UT. And while living in London at least once a week I would listen to him and Gary P. Nunn playing London Homesick Blues. |

This release seems to be mislabeled. The HI-RES version on Qobuz plays at 16/44.1. Two non-labeled versions play at MP3 320, and another at 16/44.1.

zu cables are a very good value... i got most of them on sale when they have excess stock, they list them on ebay and can be gotten quite inexpensively (at least they did a few years ago) ... they are not my favorite cable (old straightwire maestro is) but zu's are nice, very transparent... sometimes i feel the cables add a tiny bit of grain to the highs and upper mids (dilelectric insulation maybe?) but this is very subtle...maybe i am just imagining it... |
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!

jjss49I have loved Abbey Lincoln’s voice since I picked up her album “Abbey Is Blue” at a Salvation Army a couple years ago...minty condition original Riverside pressing 😁 for $1. BTW, I looked at your stereo system and I am impressed! I noticed you have a Node 2i as a streamer, and you also have Zu Audio cables. I have the PowerNode 2i and just scored some Zu Dirty Weekends; would it be worth it to upgrade my cables to Zu Audio Mission Mk1s? |
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. |
hope you guys enjoy abbey lincoln... her voice and vocal style are a bit of an acquired taste but stan’s accompaniment is just wonderful... i have listened to abby for years so i am in the groove with her artistry so to speak |
And now that it's later ..

@jjss49 .. I don't recall hearing that album. It's now in my Qobuz favorites, I'll have a listen later. Thanks! |

SPAZA - UPRIZE! (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), Qobuz

Streaming my "Discover Weekly" playlist from Spotify. Not a bad set, so far. A couple of keepers, for sure..... |
@melvinjames
you may already know this...
stan getz' last recording outing was his work with abbey lincoln on her 'you gotta pay the band' album
he played like he knew it was his last... brings tears to my eyes every time i listen |

Greg - my thoughts exactly.... Janis says to Tom “ well, I’m not supposed to be here either “...it sucks..
Wildflowers is sounding mighty, mighty fine.... |
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 |
Watching the Berlin Philharmonic live via The Digital Concert Hall.
Today, conducted by Marc Minkowski, Mozart Symphony #59 “fire symphony” and Beethoven’s ‘The Creatures of Prometheus’ ballet composition. |
Tom Petty - Wildflowers & All The Rest, Qobuz Hi-Res. It's still hard to listen to T.P. without getting a little misty. |
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. |
I recently downloaded Tea on DSD128, mixed feelings but never the less very good |
And what do you think of Tea For The Tillerman2? |
