What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report

I enjoy vinyl and digital (lately, with recent changes, vinyl actually sounds better than digital to me), BUT given what seems an overall preference for analog/vinyl on A'gon, I'm curious what the non-vinyl "1/2" is listening to. I tried to see if this was a previously posted question. Did not seem so.

This evening for me, it's Genesis (definitive edition remaster) "A Trick of the Tail".

The Ahmad Jamal Trio - The Awakening

The music and performances on this (almost) 50 year old recording still seem very fresh (more so than the artwork ;-)

Excellent choice! ghosthousebig fan of Ahmad Jamal. "The Awakening" is a must own for every Jazz collection. Do you have "Live at the Pershing"?
Happy Listening!

No @jafant
Don’t have that one. The Awakening caught my ear a while back but, otherwise, not all that deep into Ahmad Jamal. Will see if I can find Live at the Pershing on Tidal or Spotify and give a listen. Thanks for the suggestion.

Edit...found it on Tidal and realize I’d listened to some of this when I first "discovered" Ahmad (not all that long ago, for me).  It is indeed a good "document" displaying the excellent musicianship of a young AJ. Thanks again.

My pleasure - ghosthouse.those (2) AJ discs are essential to any Jazz collection. A nice way to start your AJ journey. Fast forward to more recent times, check out, "Blue Moon" and "Saturday Morning".  Classic, yet, modern AJ.
Happy Listening!
