Phil Collins

Just dug out and dusted down Supertramp cd-Breakfast in America. Superb.

My Captain &Tennille record sounds fantastic on my new system.
"Love Will Keep Us Together" has never sounded SOOO good,the Captain's organ is IN the room and Tennille(gotta luv'er) is RIGHT THERE.
Makes it all worth it.

Jennifer Warnes "The Hunter" is probably the nicest recording I have. I guess I'll have to check out "Famous Blue Raincoat"!

Eva Cassidy - Songbird / Live At Blues Alley

Charlie Haden / Pat Metheny - Beyond the Missouri Sky

Aaron Neville - Warm Your Heart / Bring It On Home 

Jackson Browne - Running on Empty' 

Rolling Stones - Stripped 

Eric Clapton - Unplugged 

Ok, Beyond the Missouri Sky is a jazz album, but still it is an incredibly well recorded, performed, and approachable album.
