audiophile rockers

I was listening to Steely Dan's Katy Lied CD ( played the LP endlessly in the seventies) and was reading the updated liner notes by Becker and Fagen...they were mastering the sound with double Maggies and an Audio Reseach D-76 amp back in 1974. Are there an other audiophile rockers like those two?

Really?? I think Katy Lied's rbcd just sounds kinda OK.

I think Neil Young and Tom Petty are two artists (Rockers) that do a good job of paying attention to sonics.

LPs by Ryan Adams are sonically excellent, and he's definitely an analog guy. His latest, "Ashes & Fire" is one of the better recorded albums (vinyl) of 2011.

Re: Tom Petty

A friend who (until recently) worked at Warner Bros once commented to me that Petty's the label's pickiest guy (on sound) by far.

All of Mark Knopfler's recordings sound excellent. Sailing to Philadelphia and Shangri-La are two stand outs.

I second the Knopfler recommendation, Saliing... and Shangri-La do sound exquisite, especially in surround...
