What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report


I enjoy vinyl and digital (lately, with recent changes, vinyl actually sounds better than digital to me), BUT given what seems an overall preference for analog/vinyl on A'gon, I'm curious what the non-vinyl "1/2" is listening to. I tried to see if this was a previously posted question. Did not seem so.

This evening for me, it's Genesis (definitive edition remaster) "A Trick of the Tail".

I spun a few CDs yesterday:

 

Kronos Quartet - Short Stories

Judas Priest - Point of Entry (Remastered)

Beck - Sea Change

It's been a while since I listened to any of my CD's... so I busted out a few.

The Doobie Brothers - What Were Once Vices Are Now Habits, MFSL SACD
The Best of Badfinger
Tori Amos - Little Earthquakes
@cincyjim I saw the Moody Blues about 5 years ago in Portland for the first time.  Great show!
Megadeth - Greatest Hits, Back to the Start
Tom Waits - Big Time
Orb - Orblivion
The Doobie Brothers - What Were Once Vices Are Now Habits, MFSL SACD.  I realized my little Onkyo DV SP205FX has been sitting unused for a while.  That player was one of my audio bargains.  I bought if from Japan for about $125 and added a step up/down transformer.  Sounds great!
Reuben, it sounded wonderful in my cheap little sacd player. I haven't listened to it on the big rig in a while, but l should. 
Reuben, that's one of my favorite Doobies albums.  That should have said "MFSL" in my post.  Not sure if it was my lysdexia kicking in or auto-correct.
Ornette Coleman - The Shape of Jazz to Come, SACD.  Wow, this one is magical.  
Reuben, I went into the record store today for the first time in a long time and found a nice looking used copy of that Doobie Brothers record. I hope it sounds as good as it looks.
Robert Cray - Strong Persuader  I haven't listened to that for a while, what a great collection of songs!
Singles Soundtrack bonus CD - a bunch of Chris Cornell songs and some Alice in Chains live and a few Paul Westerberg songs.  Pretty cool stuff that I hadn't heard before.  There's a great version of Spoon Man by Chris Cornell.
Spun a few CD's last night...

Peter Gabriel - Shaking the Tree
Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris - All the Roadrunning
Tom Jones - Reload (awesome!)
Going back through my CD collection... I got really burned out on Dave Matthews Band and haven't intentionally listened to anything of theirs in years, but Crash is sounding really nice this morning with my Skånerost.
I picked up a small pile of silver discs at my favorite record store yesterday and had a chance to spin a few last night.

Stevie Ray Vaughn and Double Trouble - Live at Carnegie Hall
JJ Cale & Eric Clapton - The Road to Escondido
Weezer - Make Believe
I haven't listened to a CD in a while... The Doobie Brothers - What Were Once Vices Are Now Habits, MFLS SACD.

Alphonse Mouzon - Mind Transplant  A friend turned me on to this, lots of similarities to Billy Cobham's Spectrum, including Tommy Bolin on guitar.  Funky fusion.

First time I've spun a silver disc in a while, Eagles - The Long Run. Sounding really nice! 
I was kind of dismissive of Japan SHM-CD SACD's in another thread recently, but Countdown to Ecstasy sounded pretty good last night.  Still a little on the "bright" side, which is how most of the SHM CD's I've purchased seem to be, but very enjoyable.
Picked up a few CDs at the local record store the other day.  Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - Fishin' in the Dark, The Best Of
I bought a 5.1 SACD copy of Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here a while ago and finally popped it in the Oppo.  The 5.1 mix was done pretty well and it's kind of a fun listen, but I prefer two channel.
