Jacintha "Autumn Leaves" on XRCD2 is incredible

Firebird; yes, this CD was released by FIM (I think) but I got it through Music Direct. I should have noted that, thanks. It is called an XRCD2-- if that's new?

Stehno; as you know, we BOTH have those fast, hot rodded DNA2 amps-- I'll have another listen to track 10. I'll certainly have to look for "Here's To Ben" also-- and maybe others? Cheers. Craig

It's also fantastic (and believe it or not, cheaper) on SACD.

Garfish, you might also check out the following XRCD's from FIM:

Flamenco Passions (flamenco guitar and nice cello)
Over the Rainbow (a sax that'll make you jump)

I think XRCD may be better than SACD but it's close.

Get the XRCD2 sampler and you'll be very pleased.

Agree Garfish, a great disk. And thanks Stehno for the recomendations. Hadn't thought of picking up "Flamenco Passions" because it's not the type of music I generally listen to, but now I will. Much as I like XRCDs, couldn't bring myself to trying Chinese instrumentals!

I can recommend "Antiphone Blues". Long enjoyed Arne Domnereus, although sax and organ played in a church may not be everyone's thing. Others?

This is turning into a "Best" or "Favorite" XRCD thead, which is a good thing. Tried finding one searching the threads but didn't find one. They're a big help on small labels or other types of limited catalogue items.
