Muddy Waters'

The quality of the recording is good to begin with. The hi-res HDAD version makes for great listening. While not as involving as the vinyl version, the 24/192 file is pretty amazing. The disc comes as a 24/96 file on one side, playable in most DVD players, and on the other side there is a 24/192 file, which must be ripped and played via a server supporting 24/192.

I got my copy through Acoustic Sounds.

"Muddy Waters: Folk Singer" is among my own personal favorite recordings. Which recording of his music are you referring to? The original vinyl version I used to have was just outstanding. I can't recall what pressing it was though.

The CDs I have that come to mind as particularly excellent recordings are the two Chess 50th Anniversary Collection "His Best" disks, 1947-56 and 1956-64.

The hi-res HDAD disc that Ben is commenting on is indeed Muddy Waters "Folk Singer" on the Classic Records label.

The SACD version of Folk Singer is also outstanding.

Yes it is "Folk Singer." I wrote that in the thread title, but for some reason it didn't transfer. My bad I guess.
