Joan Sutherland - The Art of the Prima Donna (Decca)

[Russell_L]

Hi-res from Decca is finally available to U.S. customers, via HDtracks. Just a handful of titles so far, but these seem to be the same ones that have only recently become available in Europe (and off limits to the U.S.) on sites such as Qobuz and Linn. Here's a cut from Joan Sutherland's iconic "The Art of the Prima Donna" album. Looks like the real deal here, with a nice HF extension from the vintage (1960) analog tapes.
