I'm a big Ray Brown fan so I went onto Amazon to buy a copy for my collection.

I've bought classical albums from Presto but for some reason failed to realize they also sold jazz.

Thank you very much, Dieter He was sensational. Apparently he became obsessed with Scriabin at a very young age, and it certainly showed. The final piece on the programme was Prokofiev's Sonata #8, which he also clearly enjoyed playing. opus101 and Jud 2 Link to comment

Both Dire Straits and Love Over Gold are better than any other version in my possession. In the case of the former, I like this MFSL version better than the SHM-SACD. With Love Over Gold, I just have the original CD release, and this MFSL SACD is significantly better. Tomorrow, the other two... I just got these too. They sound great! I have always loved all 4 of these albums + Brothers in Arms. This band has a place in my top 10 (favorite) list, and Knopfler definitely cracks my top 5 guitarist list... Link to comment
