Willie Nelson-Shotgun Willie Side 1

Roger Hodgson-Hai Hai Side 1 SQ Audiophile

Chapter 8-Forever Side 1 SQ Audiophile

The Fraser MacPherson Quintet-Jazz Prose(CJ-269) Side 1 SQ Audiophile

Steven Stills-Manassas Side 3 

Lavern Baker-Sings Bessie Smith(Speakers Corner) Side 2

Joni Mitchell-The Hissing Of Summer Lawns Side 1 SQ Audiophile 

Brunch-Concerto No.1(Perlman Angel S-36963) Side 2 SQ Audiophile

A great night when 5/8 recordings are Audiophile level. Willie had the weakest SQ at 4.3(above average) but what an overlooked recording. The SQ champ was very close between all 5 recordings. The crown goes to Fraser MacPherson, it lacked the very slight digital? edge of Chapter 8 and Hodgson(Doug Sax). I rarely comment on performance level since it's even more subjective then sound quality, but all 8 recordings rate 5/5.

 

@tgilg  the Supertramp album, Crisis, was a go-to when living in the dorms, 1975 - 1976.  I agree with you that it was under rated.  It is a stellar Supertramp album and holds well to this day.  I am so glad to have a pp press, in perfect condition, in my collection.  Please, continue to enjoy it.
