dlcockrum, it is indeed a shame when good music is available only in bad sound. One quality singer whose music is consistently poorly recorded is Delbert McClinton. So bad as to be unlistenable, even for me!
A lot of my favorite music was unfortunately recorded in indifferent sound. Nothing you can do about that, but if the music is good enough one can suspend disbelief.
Rodney Crowell's Close Ties will be in my shopping bag next time I'm at my record store, the excellent Music Millennium in Portland. His The Houston Kid is one of my favorite albums of the past few decades, it's that good.
