Kenny Davern – The Hot Three (Jazzology 1988 [RE 1979])

First poor recording in ages. Shame.

The Milk Carton Kids – Monterey (Anti- 2015)

Sweet album. Nice quiet vinyl with fine dynamic range.

The Moody Blues-The Present Side 1

The Doobie Brothers-Livin’ On The Fault Line Side 2

Started off with a real turkey 3x platinum nonsense! My wife even commented this album is awful! Why did I play it? Was curious about the SQ which is just average. The SQ star here was Rita Coolidge. Mastered at The Mastering Lab-Mike Reese. The sound is tight/clean/focused/direct and detailed. Gino Vannelli has a slight digital edge that’s why the*. Dynamic would be the best way to describe this recording mastered by Bernie Grundman. Yes, I’m one of the few that enjoy watered down Moody Blues recordings from the 1980’s!
