Hi all! Everyone says'Diana Krall sounded like she was right there in my living room!

So it sounds like shes a must have album... Any other suggestions? Ive got dire straits-sultans of swing..

Problem with electronic music is that it doesnt have the same information recorded,nothing like vocals!

Cheers
Mike.e

Grab some jazz and orchestral music too. That's what you hear most often at audio shows.

Wayne; the music played at the two audio shows I attended gave me a headache, I personally would not want to inflict that on Mike! Back then it was Amanda McBroom. Reminds me of a catfight in a tincan.

It's interesting that the music selection is so
questionable amongst audio heads.


I use organ recitals to do many of my tests.

If you want to test your system for smooth vocal jazz, this CD is MUCH better than the D. KRall CDs. Much better recorded, IMHO. I own a lot of Diana Krall Cds, and this one P. Barber. All of them make for pleasant listening. But the Cafe Blus CD is MUCH better recorded.
thanx
