Tonight's listens:

The Pick of Destiny - Tenacious D: Wow, I forgot how funny this album is. I wasn't really looking to add it to my collection but saw it come up from the same seller I bought another album from on Discogs. Figured why not... Master Exploder is my favorite. The movie isn't half bad either.

Blinding White Noise: Illusion and Chaos - Skyharbor: This is actually what I was looking for on Discogs. Can't find it on Qobuz, so picked up the CD. Awesome group from India and features Daniel Tompkins (from Tesseract) on vocals, at least for the songs I've heard.

Anyway, the Redbook layer of those Mo-Fi discs still sound great and why I like them. But depending on title, the Blu-Spec discs can sound better. Here's some I bought from CD-Japan. For Kind of Blue, I prefer the Mo-Fi disc, but for Bitches Brew, I prefer the Blu-Spec disc. In the end I think it comes down to material as which edition may sound better. Of course, gear plays a role as well. And of course, you have fans who prefer a specific company, so...



Blu-Spec CD. They are louder than the Mo-Fi discs, but there's lots of detail and clarity there as well. The Japanese (Sony Japan) certainly know what they're doing in their CD manufacturing/mastering process. And thus, why I'm always seeking their releases, whether SHM, Blu-Spec, and simply Sony Japan.


Yeah, I know those premium discs/vinyl can be expensive, but I think they're worth it (depending on price). And why I buy them as well

Nice discs and great photo! I haven't explored much into Blu-Spec CDs. I have both Blu-Specs for James Taylor JT but haven't gotten around to listening to them yet. Going to look into some of these next time I order from CD Japan! They seem worth the while.

Found this at a flea market for $50, USD. The complete set on CD.

So I’ve slowly been going through each album. Tonight is Help

 

[tiddlywinks]

Harry Chapin - The Gold Medal Collection

Nilsson - Nilsson Schmilsson

Jackson Browne and Warren Zevon - The Offender Meets The Pretender

 

[vaporsynthwave]

Hako Yamasaki - Tsunawatari

 

[Neweymatt]

King Gizzard & the Electronica Wizard



Not a guitar in sight, but unmistakably KGLW. The extended mix versions are the real treat imho.

 

[David A Silva]

A Joni-palooza, the Asylum Albums ‘72-‘75. Yeow, what a song machine!

Thanks. My other passion is photography. I've been doing that off/on since 1979.

As for Blu-Spec disc, I'd say go with your experience based on what you have as I'm not pitching anything.

Anyway, there are two more Miles Mo-Fi SACDs I'm looking to get to complete my "want collection" - Sketches in Spain, and 'Round About Midnight. That would add to the...

• Porgy and Bess
• Bitches Brew
• Kind of Blue
• In a Silent Way
• Miles Smiles
• Sorcerer
• On The Corner.
• Nefertiti

Though my top 5 in no particular order would be Porgy and Bess; Kind of Blue; In a Silent Way; Bitches Brew; and Sketches in Spain
