Been a big fan of Crosby's since I first turned on the radio and heard The Byrds do Dylan and the world changed....listening to his new album and really enjoying it.
The 4th side of this double LP is recorded at 45 RPM.

One of my favourite live albums. I consider Thea Gilmore to be one of the best singer/songwriters around at the moment. This is an excellent introduction for the uninitiated.
Liz Phair - Exile in Guyville
Haven't listened to this in a long time. Someone posted this a week or so ago. Thanks!
(cd)
Newly downloaded 24/192 FLAC from Highresaudio (thanks to Sorren for the recommendation). Compared to my CD version of this album I wouldn't say the difference is night & day and on my first listen I didn't pick out much more detail but the bass guitar and kick drum on 24/192 version is better resolved and deeper. A worthwhile improvement.
Nice to see the HD indicator on my nDAC lit, too.
Coldplay "Mylo Xyloto" (iTunes download)
Forget to mention earlier
My go to album to check my system - and it is good
From the deluxe CD version. Oh I Wept and Heavy Load are my particular favourites on this.
Judas Priest "Point Of Entry" on cds iii/555ps. Love this 'un. 
A great set, worth a listen.
Dave Matthews Band "Big Whiskey And The GrooGrux King"
(iTunes download)
Haven't tried this album since I upgraded the PSU on my nDAC. It was good before but now...wow!
Grant Lee Buffalo "Mighty Joe Moon" (iTunes download)
Grant Lee Buffalo "Mighty Joe Moon" (iTunes download)
