I have numerous Mofi SACD titles and some of my favorites include Jefferson Airplane - Volunteers, The Band - The Band, Love - Forever Changes, Bob Dylan - Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid, Miles Davis - Nefertiti, and Isaac Hayes - Hot Buttered Soul. I love these titles and the SACD versions are huge improvements over the less than stellar originals. Analogue Productions SACDs include CCR - Willie and The Poor Boys and Cosmos Factory. These are Steve Hoffman mastered and sound excellent. Another Analogue Production SACD is Dusty Springfield - Dusty in Memphis which is one of my Desert Island Discs. Multi-Channel SACDs that I enjoy include David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust, Roxy Music - Avalon, The Who - Tommy, Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, the Allman Brothers Band - At Fillmore East and Blood Sweat and Tears - Child is Father to the Man. I have a sizeable collection of SACDs and can ramble on about them all day.
SHARE YOUR SACDs THAT SOUND FANTASTIC!!
I am starting this thread at someone’s suggestion, and it was a VERY good suggestion! Share the title, artist, and the SACD issuing company of really good sounding SACDs you've spent some time with.
I’ll get the ball rolling...
"WHITES OFF EARTH NOW!" by The Cowboy Junkies: MoFi. Unfortunately, out of print, but I wouldn’t bat an eye at paying a hundred bucks for a copy due to the music and the sonics. In my opinion, it sounds better than "Trinity Sessions".
"THE GIRL IN THE OTHER ROOM" by Diana Krall: Verve. Coming up with the second was harder than the first because there are many to choose from. This SACD is warm, palpable, punchy, dimensional, with truth of timbre in spades. Very intimate sound. As a system becomes more transparent, so does this disc, seemingly without end.
I won’t share any more because I don’t want to be an SACD hog. LET’S HEAR ’EM!!
