There are many records I loved the first time for the music and still do. Focusing on Audiophile SQ, here are a few more.

Roseanne Cash. The River and the Thread. SQ is breathtaking.

Sarah McLaughlin. Mirrorball

Sarah Jarosz. Build Me Up From Bones 

Tom Petty. Wildflowers

Pat Matheny. One Quiet Night

Bill Frissell. Everything he’s ever recorded plus many he plays on.

 

 Too long list of names and titles without explanation are useless..

What people hope to do with that ?

I gave four as asked with my emotional  characterisation to incite curiosity...

 

Do the same if you want to be read seriously ...😊
