I vaguely remember The Mary Travers, Mary album. I looked at Qobuz and it isn’t there.  I wonder if there’s a vinyl copy out there, that I could afford 😉

The Black Eagles – Tony’s Mining Company [Live] (BE7 1985)

These guys are the best when live. The tuba. SQ is excellent.

His Masters Voice / EMI 1987

Bud & Travis-...In Concert(Liberty LDS 12001) Side 1

George Shearing-Piano(CJ-400) Side 1 SQ Audiophile

Al Martino-We Could Side 1

David Lee Roth-Eat 'Em And Smile Side 2(This Side On Label)

Delia Bell-ST Side 2

Pete Townshend-Empty Glass Side 1

Godfathers-Hit By Hit Side 2

Three Dog Night-Seven Separate Fools(Probe UK) Side 1 + 2

Reality strikes... only one album with Audiophile SQ. Godfathers had the worst SQ of the 8. Played both sides of Three Dog Night's strongest studio album in a belated tribute to Floyd Sneed. Shearing-Piano is sublime despite being mostly ignored by the media/collectors/sellers and even Audiophiles, they have a huge inventory of Miles Davis represses to unload!

Thanks @dayglow for reminding me that I played this earlier. It's got the set of cards.

Three Dog Night - Seven Separate Fools (Club RE ABC/Dunhill 1972)

@bkeske

Not sure if you have heard the Neville Marriner above but it's sublime to these ears.

@noromance   +1 Have both the US Dunhill/ ABC block rainbow label and the pink UK Probe label which includes the seven playing cards. Have not played back-to-back determining which pressing has better SQ. FWIW "Seven Separate Fools" easily makes my Top 100 Pop/Rock albums of the 1970's.

@noromance 

I have not, but it definitely caught my eye 👍🏼

Not sure if you have heard the Neville Marriner above but it's sublime to these ears.
