Sounds beautiful, on CD I go for the DCC.

One of my fave records of the last twelve months.

It sure is. I didn't think much of this copy when I first got it but listening in a big rig it just sounds fabulous. 'Twisted' was making me giggle along side with Joni.

Here's another Audiophool record I am listening.

This is a few Japanese records I brought back from way back when that actually survived.
I bought it when it was released in '77 or so. A JVC Direct Disc. I also have this on an XRCD release.
Performance wise, it's okey. I normally don't like direct disc record as all of musicians playing somewhat *safe* since no fixes at the post. i.e. you mess up, it's all over.
