danadam Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 I like that one upscaled 16/44 track :-) Looks like they didn't care that much to hide it. Almost as if it doesn't make much difference :-) Link to comment
blue2 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Track #11 Silent Night (HiRes Bonus Track) - The Blues Company is wrongly titled. It's actually "(I'm Just An) Ol' Blues Singer" from album "Ain't Nothing But ....". 🎸🎶🏔️🐺 Link to comment

oso Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 I know that most recordings are made in 24 bit as the reverberation/echo effects sounds better that way also when you down scale later to 16 bits. So that means they didn't bother to get the studio master file. Link to comment
