New Eva Cassidy 180 gr

It's likely too early because they were just released, but has anyone heard these. I have a previous release of Songbird, and am very happy with the pressing. Songbird has many songs from both Eva by Heart, and Live at blues alley. Frankly, I wish they would just release Live at Blues Alley, but neither it or EBH was ever released on vinyl. As good as Songbird is, there is still some great songs from Blues Alley not on there. Anyway, I love her music so hopefully these are good pressings.

Excellent point-was wondering myself. Checked the AS website, and there is a short write up on the BOX SET. It makes no mention if any digital was used.

I just obtained the answer, and it's a digital source. I may sell out for this one, because the music is so good. At least one (-:

Fjn, You really ought to seek out the CD "The Other Side", with Eva and Chuck Brown, if indeed you have never heard it. They do mostly standards, but their interpretation is very fresh. The album rivals similar collaborative efforts done by Ray Charles and Betty Carter and even the work of Ella and Louis. It was cut in 1992, but sadly never on LP. You evidently know how transcendent was Eva's voice. Chuck Brown had a wonderful baritone voice and a soulfulness that mixes so well with Eva's ethereal quality.
