Well mastered Compact Disks

CD's  are coming back. And rightly so. If one has a good dedicated red book CD player then the SQ is still better than any streaming, if the CD has been mastered well.

These Carmen Gomes Inc. albums are exemplary. Dynamic range is left unhindered and to my ears they sound just about as good as the DXD versions.

Please feel free to suggests more examples of well mastered compact Discs.

Too bad most of the well recorded music is so bland.

Regarding Carmen Gomes, George Foreman once observed:

"Boxing is like jazz. The better it is, the less people appreciate it."

Perhaps applied to Blues also.  I'm not saying to like her, but perhaps appreciate how effortless her delivery is.
