Album of the Evening

[austinpop]

The cover doesn’t really tell you this is a baroque music album does it! The full name of the album is more of a clue: LONDON CALLING – A Collection of Ayres, Fantasies and musical Humours.

 

New (to me) music, and quite enjoyable.

 

[DeathFugue]

A wonderfully like-like recording in DSD 256 format. He's a great player, too.

No question that is absolutely the strangest cover I've ever seen for an album of baroque music!

The title refers to a masterpiece of rebellious music of the seventies, the cover of which, in its turn, evokes a cover of the debut album of of rock and roll' icon.

24/192 FLAC...I hope DG continues to use this higher resolution.

Roon suggested this album while listening to Nina Simone. I gave it a listen and liked it, went to Qobuz and purchased it.

Thanks, enjoyed listening to that! (via Spotify)

Outstanding.

Proof that DSD doesn't guarantee great sound: this one sounds rather thin and lacks low end, not to mention the characterless playing! I have many Red Book CDs that sound better and certainly have more inspired playing.

In remembrance of Jimmy Cobb, Boss Guitar with Wes Montgomery.

This recording showed up on Qobuz recently and is a joy to listen to. Among the best small vocal ensemble recordings I have heard from an SQ perspective, and the vocal and instrumental performances are also outstanding. I gave it five stars in the Roon rating feature, which is something I just don't often do.

A enjoyable bit of Kurt Weill

Some truly delightful hard bop tonight.
