Windham Hill CD

In hunting down a cover pic for this post I discovered that there is a third volume in this series. I will have to keep my eyes out for it.  :wink:

Here, There and Everywhere: The Songs of the Beatles - Windham Hill Collection

Windham Hill CD

Borrowed this one from the library. Not bad, but not as good as I had hoped it would be.

The Dave Brubeck Quartet: So What's New?

Brubeck music combined with Telarc sound, this one's a winner.  :2thumb

David Benoit:

Shadows

GRP CD

Freedom at Midnight

GRP CD

American Landscape

GRP CD



Nice for background music while I am working, but not something that I would pick for a serious sit down listening session. But that's OK, everything has its place.

Jethro Tull: Thick as a Brick

Chrysalis 180g LP

I don't know if it is the mastering or the Steven Wilson remix or a combination of both (nor do I really care), but this is without a doubt the best version of TAAB I have ever heard. Comes with a nice 24 page 12x12 inch book.

At $22, this one is a steal.

Welcome aboard Dan.

Nice maiden post on the listening tread. I had never heard of her before. I hope it is the first of many.  :D

Found the album on Tidal and am listening as I type this.

Good find. Thanks for the heads up.  :thumb:
