Simon & Garfunkel-Bookends(KCS 9529 2 Eye/360) Side 2 SQ Audiophile

Shaun Cassidy-Born Late Side 1

Michael Franks-Sleeping Gypsy Side 2

Gordon Lightfoot-If You Could Read My Mind(Early Repress) Side 2 SQ*

Harry James-Greatest Hits(CS 9430) Side 2

Joshua Rifkin-Piano Rags By Scott Joplin Side 2

Ahmad Jamal-The Bright, The Blue And The Beautiful Side 2

Mahler-Symphony NO.2 (Solti/LSO CSA 2217) Side 1 SQ Audiophile

Slowly going thru my last 150+ unplayed albums condition and content will be the issue for many of these albums. Bookends played at Audiophile SQ, not bad for VG vinyl. SQ* would need a 2nd play to determine Audiophile SQ. Harry James was the only recording with subpar SQ. Mahler takes the SQ crown due to the excellent clarity and dynamics from this London box set.
