This CD lured me into audio hobby, in 2005.
Pacifica is the best string quartet in the world now.

Don't let your wife know that, she might burn it.  :rofl:

George Benson: Benson Burner

  Sony 2 CD set

Just kind of a generic jazz quartet that George Benson happens to be playing in. Not all that bad, but not really what I would call Benson music.

The Doobie Brothers: Southbound

Arista CD

A greatest hits collection with each song newly recorded featuring a different guest artist. My mind I have the originals these arrangements are not different or unique enough to justify self space. Not a bad listen if you can get if\t from the library like I did, but IMO also not worth owning unless you are a Doobies completeist.

Scheherazade, Capriocio Italien, 1812 Overture: Von Karajan/Berlin Philharmonic

Deutche Grammophon CD


I thought I would give this one a try because I like all three pieces. But the CD did not thrill me, which shouldn't be a big surprise since I am not a big fan of Von Karajan nor DG recordings.

The Beatles - A Jazz Tribute

High Note CD

A very uneven collection, some tracks OK and others... meh.
The liner notes don't give any indication when the tracks were recorded, but I get the feeling that these are just a bunch of tracks that High Note artists recorded of Beatles tunes that were thrown together to try and take advantage of the Beatles 50th anniversary.

Blue Note Plays the Beatles

 
Blue Note CD  (Ya Think?)

Musically a much better collection than the CD in my previous post. But then what would you expect, it is all Blue Note artists.

George Benson: Benson Burner

Clever title.

He once had/or still has a swimming pool shaped like a grand piano.
