Hey, I'm looking for the highest quality recordings from the following Artists:


Chet Baker

Billie Holiday

Eva Cassidy

128x128jjbeason14

Both Chet Baker Sings and Chet Baker Plays the best of Lerner and Lowe are wonderfully free breathing uncompresed recordings.

Alone Together, a Chet Baker / Bill Evans collaboration is pretty good too.

In fact I can’t remember hearing a badly recorded Chet Baker album.

 

As mentioned earlier, the Steve Hoffman music forum would also be a great place to look.


Just use the search option and take it from there.

Baker and Mulligan is terrific music. If it was on a wax cylinder and you had to wind up the Victrola it would still be worth pursuing.

Eva Cassidy Live at Blues Alley is excellent. It’s a 2 disc 45 RPM pressing.

I just got a 4 LP set of Billie Holiday, the Complete Decca Recordings. Pretty wonderful. Arguably the best sounding recordings/pressings I’ve heard.
