Whats on your turntable tonight?

Jethro Tull - Thick As A Brick

1972 Reprise Records

Great SQ on this early copy. 

Joni Mitchell  -  Blue   Rhino reissue of this Reprise album.

Joni Mitchell  -  Don Juan's Reckless Daughter   Japanese issue, with OBI Strip.

Beth Hart  -  A Tribute To Led Zeppelin   Recent, new release.

Female vocals day.  Two female artists at completely opposite ends of style.  Both are fabulous artists.  Blue sounds very, very good. Beth Hart album sounds good, but not excellent.  The Japanese issue of Don Juan's is superb and can easily qualify as a go-to for system demo.  My jaw was open for the entire album play.

Could a "live" album win a SQ crown? Tonight it did. I'm aware that they "fix" live recordings, regardless its a great recording with top SQ and content. Maggie Rogers(2019) recording was not warped but scuffed it did have a sonic veil. Might purchase the CD to compare. Central Heating is a 5 star recording with near audiophile SQ if your a R&B fan check it out,
