@kennyc Thanks for the link to TAS' list. I am glad the recording I always use for speaker assessment is on it, albeit using its highbrow title! Decca’s 1969 recording of Benjamin Britten conducting his “Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra”. aka "Variations and Fugue on a Theme of Purcell". Mind you I use the CD or streaming ;-)
Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital
I have not bought a vinyl record since CDs came out, but have been exposed to numerous claims that vinyl is better. I suspect jazz may be best placed to deliver on these claims, so I am looking for your recommendations.
I must confess that I do not like trad jazz much. Also I was about to fork out A$145 for Miles Davis "Kind of Blue" but bought the CD for A$12 to see what the music was like. I have kept the change!
I love the jazz in the movie Babylon, which features local Oz girl Margo Robbie (the film, not the jazz).
So what should I buy?
