A Reference Recording....

For those of you who love the sound of the female voice(s) and/or have a passions for bluegrass/folk/Celtic styles...run, do not walk, to either Amazon or to mistyriverband.com and order Misty River's 'Rising'. Great music, awesome sound quality...what more can one ask? This is what this mad hobby always should be about - and so seldom is.

Misty River has produced 3 other albums. All musically outstanding but none have quite the 'band-is-in-the-room' quality (and I mean that quite literally - the illusion is very close to pefect). They are all still sonically way above average, however, and definitely worth owning.

Vito is very Happy, this was a VERY good recommendation, your knees are safe... this time :) Great sound on the "Rising" CD and very good music as well.
Super delivery and service from CD Baby also,
Thanks...

I recvd the cds pronto from cdbaby. Could be a new reference for vocal seperation for me. Some very fine music indeed. Listening to "Rising" for the second time now.
I've said this before but my favorite aspect of Audiogon is the music I've discovered through threads like this one.

Timrhu,

I agree about the vocal separation. Take the opening of 'If I Needed You', for example. Four very distinct voices sitting out there in 3D space. Lovely stuff.

I just noticed the HDCD indicator is lit up on the Live At the Backstage Gate cd. HAd to check the Rising and yes HDCD. Some may doubt the benefits of HDCD but the sound quality of these cds is another testimony for HDCD.
