Jim Brickman: Romanza

 Somerset CD

Guess whose back? If there is one thing I have learned in my 30+ years in this hobby it is to pick your battles. Especially now that I am sharing the living room.   8-[

Tony Bennett & Dave Brubeck: The White House Sessions, Live 1962

Columbia Legacy CD

A great album both from a musical and a SQ basis. I cannot believe that these tapes sat in the Columbia archives for over 50 years before they decided to release them.

If you are a fan of either of these gentleman, just go out and get this one. It can be had on Amazon for as little as $3.

Mussorgsky: Pictures at an Exhibition - Ansermet/L`Orchestre de la Suisse Romande

King Records Super Analogue 180g LP

By far my favorite reading of Pictures. Not as dynamic and Hi-Fi spectacular as the Reiner, but I think it is more interesting from a musical perspective.

Rimsky-Korsakov Scheherazade: Ansermet L'orchestre de la Suisse Romande.

King Records Super Analogue 180g LP

There is a delicacy and an emotional thread running through this performance of Scheherazade that just draws you right into the music. As with Pictures, if I want to show off the capabilities of my system I pull out the Reiner, but when I want to sit down and purely enjoy the music, the Amsermet is hands down my go-to disc.
