Sonics on Cassandra Wilson New LP

Thanks for posting that she has a new album. I'll pick it up on CD(sold my turntable recently).

Usually her recordings are a bit bass heavy and have warm mids and soft treble.

When you say bad sonics on LP what do you mean?
In what way is it a bad recording?

I just picked up the CD. Briefly listened to 2 songs in the car and it does sound weird. Can't really point out what the problem is yet, but certainly not the best quality recording. Almost sounds like it was recorded in the bar or something. When I listen to it at home I'll know better.

OK I listened to the whole disc.

My initial impression is that this is her weakest effort so far.

As far as recording quality on CD it is 7-8 out of 10. Can't say it's horrible. Sounds OK on my home system. The sound is a bit bass heavy with somehow rolled off highs. but it's OK.

The music is what I pay most attention to. I mean it is definitely listenable, but it isn't interesting and it lacks soul. It wouldn't be fair to compare this CD with "New Moon Daughter" or "Traveling Miles" or even "Thunderbird" for that matter. It isn't on par with the older stuff. At some point I even felt like I wasted $14. But it's OK. I've bought CDs that were much worse than this one.

Just my opinion.
