Bruce Hornsby And The Range-The Way It Is Side A
Barry White-Rhapsody In White Side 2 SQ*
Gordon Brisker Quintet-"About Charlie" Side 1 SQ Audiophile
Pat Travers-Makin' Magic Side 1
Harry Chapin-Heads & Tales Side Tales SQ Audiophile
Henri Lazarof-Sinfonietta(LR-133) Side 1 SQ Audiophile
Steve Winwood-Back In The High Life Side 1 SQ*
Billy Joel-The Nylon Curtain Side 2 SQ*
With 3 Audiophile and 3 near misses(SQ*) makes for a very special night. Only Hornsby had SQ that diminished the excellent content. Lazarof had possible demo level SQ, would need to spin again but easily takes the SQ crown. Gordon Brisker is another great(overlooked) jazz album with 5* content and sound.
