@bkeske Brian, it’s pretty darn good. All songs but one or two are enjoyable. I play it more than many. SQ is okay but I’d give it a solid recommendation on folk music quality alone.

Schubert-Lydia Artymiw(Chandos ABRD 1075) Side 2 SQ Audiophile

Johnny Paycheck-Armed And Crazy Side 2

Donna Summer-On The Radio Side 3

Jerry Vale-Sings The Great Love Songs Side 3

Van Morrison & The Chieftains-Irish Heartbeat Side A SQ*

Freddie Jackson-Do Me Again Side 2 SQ*

John/Bucky Pizzaerelli-2x7=Pizzarelli Side B SQ*

Jeannie And Jimmy Cheatham-"Homeward Bound"(CJ 321) Side 1 SQ Audiophile

Only Mr. Vale was an unplayed recording as I slowly get to the last of the 60’s-70’s mint easy listening thrift store collection haul. Concord easily takes the SQ crown, might be demo level.
