Jethro Tull: Aqualung | Downunderman - April 27, 2023

Not at all like the Stand-Up master tape - This one is really rather good. The master tape used (IA's 'shed' master?) here is in very good shape. There are no obvious signs ...

Rachmaninov: 4 Piano Concertos, Paganini Rhapsody - Ashkenazy, Previn | Contrapunctus - May 30, 2023

Esoteric is going to release these recordings on June 17th. Given the already brilliant transfers out there, I'm definitely not interested.

Beethoven: Symphonies 1-9 - Konwitschny | Contrapunctus - June 5, 2023

TowerRecords is going to release a new Konwitschny/Leipzig recording on SACD (Jun. 28th): Reger: Variations & Fugue on a theme by Hiller Schubert: Symphony No. 8 b-minor ...

Beethoven: Symphonies 1-9 - Konwitschny | Contrapunctus - June 6, 2023

Paul Simon: There Goes Rhymin' Simon | Downunderman - April 23, 2023

Rachmaninov: 4 Piano Concertos, Paganini Rhapsody - Ashkenazy, Previn | DYB - May 30, 2023

Contrapunctus, I agree. For me the Decca Japan issue is really spectacular. Esoteric's choices continue to confound me. So many of their recent issues have been released very ...

Eagles: Hotel California | George P - June 3, 2023

Over the last month, I have compared this new MFSL SACD to the old DCC Japan CD a number of times. I always loved the warm, full sound of the DCC CD, but I love this album so ...

Beethoven: Symphonies 1-9 - Konwitschny | Athenaeus - June 5, 2023

Yes, I saw that and put it on my wishlist right away! I don't know this recording of Reger but, from what I've read, it's excellent. As for the Schubert recording, potential ...
