Carly Simon - Comin around again
Celine Dion - pour que tu me aimes encore
Ilse deLange - All the answers

Knock yourself out with these goosebumping songs!

I bought "Careless Love" at the weekend on the strength of the Stereophile review (I was bored and wanted to buy something new) and have not been dissapointed. I'm not a huge Billie Holliday fan but she does sound very close -- it's a real "old time" sound that lends a very satisfying and warm quality to most of the songs. I particularly like tracks 1, 2 and 9. the recording quality is high and really shows off the low-level resolution and imaging in my system. A lot of tracks use brushes which add a certain "air" to the sound. Highly recommended1!
