A lot of Todd Garfinkle's MA Recordings qualify. Off-beat international music minimally miked in carefully selected, acoustically lively locales.
What is the VERY BEST CD album you've ever heard?
Just like with records, I came across releases on CD that were never popular, but bring lots of interesting music and so I started collecting CDs that do have collectible value for the reason of a great and rare music presented.
So far album "Sauce Hollandaise" by Ashra is on my #1 desirable list
"Best Band You've Never Heard In Your Life" by Frank Zappa is my 2nd best CD I've ever heard.

@lucky53 You induced me to put on my first-day-it-hit-the-stores LP of The Doors' L.A. Woman. To be sure, the opening cut is a little relentlessly hard-left/hard-right/center, but it's also pretty clean. Luckily, the second and third cuts are far better. It's still very much left-right-center, but there's a lot less compression and a good deal more space. I've just made it to the title track. Tone quality and clarity are getting ever better. The band is rocking. Yeah! |
