วีดีโอ

Thank you! Greatly appreciated. I do have The Who Live at Leeds on CD and its awesome. I plan to recommend it on my series about best hi-fi albums.

@@geoffprice5856 Thank you so much for the recommendation. I will definitely check it out. I know of Rory Galagher but have not yet watched the Irish Tour.

@@kenlor71 Yes, absolutely agree. I plan to feature Animals on one of my next videos.

@@martinbishop2966 I agree! She consistently makes great records and I love her singing. She owns Gwendolyn Records so she has control of the quality of her records. Thanks for watching and appreciating.

Yes Noypi!

Thank you David. Happy Holidays too!

There is an old saying, if you don't have anything good to say, shut up.

Thank you Cliff

Thanks for watching and appreciating

Thanks for the very nice words David! I really appreciate it. It’s nice to know you like my videos as much as I enjoyed making them.

@@jasminacevedo9098 Thanks for the appreciation!

@@doodahdavesrecords4319 Wow! I only have Rumours and Hendrix on vinyl

@@doodahdavesrecords4319 Thank you! I appreciate your comments. Yeah, they are available in vinyl (except the “best audiophile”, I think). Great albums are usually available in both vinyl and cd.

Thanks Gerard! Merry Christmas too and all the best to you on the new year

@@doodahdavesrecords4319 Yeah! I saw they’ll be in Louisville Palace again on April 2025. I might not be able to go there but I’ll be watching them here in Calgary on July 29th!

@@emilysanders5020 Thanks! Yeah, Keith Jarreth is awesome. His album “Koln Concert” is also very good. I just saw availability of Danny Infantino’s “more…songs” has gotten scarce but he has other great sounding albums. Vanessa Fernandez is worth checking out.

@@punkhillbilly3869 Most SACDs can play on a regular CD player. SACDs usually have 2 layers: stereo and multi-channel. So maybe you dont even need to buy new if you already have one. If you do buy, you dont have to buy an expensive one. Sony have pretty good ones like you mentioned and maybe second hand Oppo.

@@jimthedinosaur you miss the point entirely. SACD sounds much better than redbook CD's with much more depth and detail in the music. That is the point of buying a player that will play the SACD layer.

@@CliffCollipriest2013 Thank you. I actually agree. The SACD layer is usually better than what’s on red book and it will be great to hear on an SACD player. Just saying you can still play it on a (some) CD players if you dont have the means yet.

@@jimthedinosaur In that regard you are of course correct. I guess my point was if you don't have and SACD player why buy an SACD? The Redbook CDs are much cheaper.

@@punkhillbilly3869 Haha, good to hear from you again!

@@gerardfletcher1203 Thanks again for watching and appreciation Gerard. I appreciate your comments. I highly recommend to listen to “When the Levee…” and Allison + US Live. I really enjoyed these 2 albums.

@@davidstein9129 Thank you for appreciating. I will be sharing more albums of great recordings. Just sending it out in batches so its not overwhelming and have a good mix of genre. Checking as well to make sure they are really ‘audiophile quality’.

@@davidstein9129 I agree. Her records are always of great quality and one or two might even be better than “the girl on the other room”. I picked it because it was the album that introduced me to her music and the one that made her one of my favorite vocalist.

@@gerardfletcher1203 Thank you for appreciating my choices. I agree, in rainbows and hail to the thief is great too. They will most probably get featured on one of my future videos.

@@ernietarling5829 Hello from Canada! Thank you for appreciating

@@emilysanders5020 Thank you! If you like jazz that will be an essential listen

@@hoonhog28 Thank you for the comment. To be honest, I always wanted to do that, play some of the tracks. In fact, I did that on my 2 videos about WIIM amp but I got a notice that my videos are blocked on some countries. I’m just new at posting videos on youtube, so I was not sure how this ‘copyright’ thing will affect me. Anyway, I will try to include actual tracks in the future and see how it goes.

@@karlos_gg9992 Thanks for your comment. You have keen eye! To be honest, the smudge is not because I push the plate to manually close it. My oppo is old so its already having some issues. Sometimes it does not open when I push the button. I have to lift up the plate just a little to help it open. I’m currently in the market for a new CD player. Any suggestion?

@@crazyprayingmantis5596 Hello! You might be referring to track I Only Want To Be With You. That track have dynamic range of -0.02 to 12.59 dB (according to tests available online), which is less than the other tracks. That is a test on CD of original release. The CD layer of the SACD release on 2012 has less dynamic range compression. Yes, the daft punk album is so transparent that you can notice that if you will pay attention. Thanks for the comments! I really appreciate it.

@@jimthedinosaur Yeah that might be it, all I remember is one of the tracks at some point makes me cringe because the vocal is incredibly sibilant but it's only for a few words if I remember. I thought there was something wrong with my stereo the first time I heard it.

@@bossoli60 Hello! Thanks, just curious, what’s the 2 albums you have?

@@jimthedinosaur i have the Daft Punk on Cd and Ahum record 😌

@@bossoli60 Thanks for the info!

@@jimthedinosauractually I have Gould also and many Duke Ellington but not that specific one 😊

@@punkhillbilly3869 Thanks! I’ll definitely check that out

Thanks for the recommendation I have just ordered this from ebay

@@emilysanders5020 Yes, it’s worth checking out!

@@sidesup8286 Thank you! I will check them out

Hello, thanks for your comment. Yes my appreciation for these music is my opinion

@@seed_drill7135 Thank you. Yes that would be nice. It seems it has gotten expensive on ebay and not available in amazon.

@@damirhlobik6488 Thank you for the recommendation. I will check them out

@@terrygriggs5755 Thanks for appreciating. I do have the AK + US Live album but a friend borrowed and still has not returned 😀. It is a great album!

@@jimthedinosaur Good luck getting that one back from your friend. 😀😀😀😀

Thanks, Elephant is a great album and one of my favorite too!

@@sidesup8286 Thank you for the comment and suggestions. I will keep it in mind.

Thank you for sharing your story. I agree with your thoughts on Vinyl vs CD. CD to me is just more accessible and budget friendly so it allows me to hear more albums. And with the modern technology there are a lot of albums now that sounds great in CD

@@jimthedinosaur only old recordings ,including the 90´s the vinyl sounds a lot better as i bought many albuns till late 93 when starting to buy more cds and i was using a non 70´s new and expensive system ,all at the time costed me what today is 10.000€ as i wouldn´t be happy with a less good system than my 70´s expensive systems, but i felt like if i had been stolen ,when playing a new cd in my totally new 90´s system, i was sad and feeling bad after spending such a expensive system i had steril sound, i even conected a belt driven 74 Pioneer turntable from a special series that still looks new with such a heavy use, all made of metal and wood and bigger and better built than at the time PL-12D or PL-15D, only the change of speed and stop button were in baquelite or a very hard plastic without lifter for the arm, with a simple Pioneer cartridge the PC-30 /PN-30, had better sound than a Linn cd player that costed me a lot of money, the reason why i only bought a better turntable in 96 , the thorens TD2001 with Ortofon cartridge MC type in blue ,the mkII , this when ortofon meaned quality assured ,now most of the cartridges are garbage in comparation with old cartridges and stylus, like hours of use for a expensive stylus , before was years of use and when noticing a litle less quality of sound ,normally in the last tracks of one side of the record(with more time of recording) ,i used to put a new stylus, i have still a lot of new stylus as my father when having to drive to Lisbon ,he used to buy each time 2 or three needles for the turntables and today i got still several new closed in the box old stylus, now i have to drive 400kms to do the same, or repair something simple in a component, like changing belts but when 15 years old i used to change belts to whatever deck someone asked me to ,today it seems i got nervous when doing the same, also don´t have a place to work or tools to do it, but DAT is digital and my 80´s deck records and plays far better than a cd player or minidisc deck, this last also with inferior recording quality and i have six top end models, two pioneers, a denon , two sony, a nd a kenwood, the denon i have read about it and some magazines , the most known said "better than any ES from Sony" but i find better ,the pioneer and the kenwood , but all are good, as in the 90´s i had and still have it stored a sony radio minidisc player with a 10 cds box, bought it cheap ,kind of a big box with christmas ornaments and only 250€ at the time converted, but one of my favorite cars still as a good cassette player with very good sound so i have where to play the compilations i made in the last years in cassette ,recorded from spotify with 12 seconds of crossfader , lazyness wining as it would be a more hard task to get all records or cds i have for the compilations , the best recorder from spotify is a denon DRM-800a, i tried several better decks but the recorded sound stays improved in the Denon without calibration but seems to have what they call coloured sound and i put off all software that could change the sound on my laptop and has a good sound board or DAC, Altec Lansing ,that i know from the first studio monitors my father had in his studio when assembled in 1970 , kind of JBL sound as both brands are related, i think, sorry for my long coments ,i think age is to blame

@@punkhillbilly3869 Thanks for sharing. I do have Smash and Superunknown, great albums too! I will check out the others on your list

@@gerardfletcher1203 Thanks!

@@emilysanders5020 Will do the next top 5 of 90s Rock soon! 😀

Annnnndddd.....I was right.

@@dandiehm8414 Yes, no classical on this video. I do have classical music on my collection but I’m saving it for another video 😀

@@gerardfletcher1203 Thank you for appreciating

@@drl1046 I bought Seeds in 2007. I really enjoy this album and still listen to it.
