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".

Animal Logic I & II Love Deborah Holland's voice. Stewart Copeland and Stanley Clarke, not too bad either! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHvJhj7DeM4 |
For @slaw , @nutty , & @pokey The Lord Dog Bird. A LoFi masterpiece. Something about it reminds me of Hiss Golden Messenger - but further out there. Persevere (maybe) through tracks 1-3. It gets "easier". Track 5, Song for Woodthrush https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIdbyifKRHg&list=OLAK5uy_l1GKpvNJzO8ie72LptzrDSUnH58U2AwoY&i... |

The Temptations - With A Lot O' Soul Can't believe it's taken over 50 years to realize how good this is. Of course, can't say enough about The Funk Bros. special sauce. Session musicians. Saints of the recording industry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmvXGOLJQHg&list=OLAK5uy_kUPhKVCF3-4IYJLh7fKxJEgjE6mJuz60M&i... |
Jennifer Nettles Playing With Fire, followed with Alison Kraus and Union Station, best they've ever sounded by a country (pun intended) mile Why, you ask? Well I had been using a Wire World Optical cable, but read comments stating Coax is much better. And, so I started a search. Came across a thread discussing Coax and substituting a RCA interconnect cable. I have a 1.5M DHLab BL-1 Series One (light blue) pair laying around, and inserted one into the Coax I/Os between my Oppo 105 and Audio Alchemy DDP-1 + PS 5 Jaw Dropping! That said I am ordering a DHLabs D750, which is returnable should I find no discernible improvement, but guessing I will, which will be even MORE jaw dropping HTH |
Billy Bremner: No Ifs, Buts, Maybes (Gadfly Records). Available through Amazon. Billy was in the supergroup Rockpile (with Dave Edmunds, Nick Lowe, and Terry Williams), and was briefly a recording member of The Pretenders. He has a number of CD-only albums, and this one’s a keeper. Good songs, real tasty guitar playing. Billy’s not a great singer, but he’s better than a lot of other guitar slingers. The album was recorded in Sweden with Swedish musicians, all real good players. |
