What are you streaming tonight?

Uber, if you liked her first album I think you'll enjoy the new one.  Not because it copies the first one, there's a lot of originality, but it also feels familiar and comfortable.

John Scofield - Swallow Tales, Qobuz Hi-Res

Test Pattern …. Sonia Dada

Qobuz in the car.
This is a scary good album!

Pick me up off the Floor ….. Norah Jones.

Well it did not knock me over but I think need listen to it a couple more times.

I was finishing up listening to some CD’s when I saw your post.

So, fired up Tidal to check out Norah’s newest. I have her first three albums, and as much as I love her luscious voice, her albums always left me a bit unfulfilled. It seems her voice is very well represented right smack into the center image, but a bit too much forward, lacking any 3D soundstage, or a feeling of being recorded within a room. Everything seems ‘stuck in the middle’ with not much going on. Somewhat artificial, to me.

So, I thought ‘heck’, lemme see if her newest recordings is improved in that regard. But to me, nope, more of the same.

My initial reaction, and definitely not something I would purchase beyond streaming.
