Johnny Hartman - The voice that is!
Analogue Productions SACD



What a wonderful crooner he was!
Sweet and mellow, but never over the top.
Fantastic remaster.

Frank Sinatra - No one cares
MoFi SACD



I care!
A whisky in my hand, some candles in our cosy living room, the velvety voice of Frankie, what more do I need in the wee small hours of the night...?!

Sitting by the Christmas tree on a cold morning with a nice fire listening to:
Miles Davis - The New Miles Davis Quintet

Georges, I'm a Chick Corea fan so a bit biased. Not everything on the set is to die for, but there are enough great performances on here to make it worthwhile. Maybe try it on Tidal or Qobuz or the streaming service of your choice first.

Well, it's not cutting-edge, and it is recognizably Chick Corea. For some listeners that is enough to dis' it. The sound, playing and songs are all great, iMHO; if you know you don't like Chick Corea then you should skip it.

Tord Gustavsen - The Well



I have listened to this album already twice, and I like it.
I couldn't resist after the glowing reviews from authorities like Stereophile, and even more important, Carlos.
It makes my Gustavsen collection complete.
