Purchased following a recommendation on this thread. Have gone to disc 2 'Stretching out, in the studio' for my first listen. Reproduction is much better than I expected. The Green Manalishi version on here is the best I've heard, as is that classic Man of the World, which is slightly slower and more relaxed than the conventional version. Very pleased with this.
Glad you like it MDS, I'm sure you will find the two other CDs great. The SQ on all of these are excellent as is the various material. I also played disc 2 earlier on this evening 
Yep. Thanks for the recommendation, Steve. Nice one!
Got burned with Sting shmcd albums. But it wasn't enough so i decided to raise pain with this that sounds like recorded into a bucket during an earthquake. A couple of pints leave less regrets.
Rosanne Cash
"The River And The Thread" (2014) MP3
Just played "Jug of Love" their 2nd album.
Leroy Vinnegar Quartet
"Integrity - Live At Laimont" (1995) MP3
The City of Portland was fortunate to have Leroy reside here for the last thirteen years of his life. He would play live in clubs three or four nights a week, often with no cover charge at the door. This recording includes Mel Brown on drums (Mel was a long-time Motown drummer, mostly with the Supremes), Dan Faenhle on guitar, Leroy on bass and Gary Harris on sax. Leroy passed away at age 71 in 1999.

On vinyl? Excellent album. I love Martin Stone's guitar playing.

No, on cd, I got rid of my lps many years ago and had this on Blue Horizon. The cd still sounds good in my room on my system though.
Every time i listen to this i feel like rushing out to buy that Mercedes Benz.
A cool evening walk in the rain would be more affordable though...

Debs,
I should watch the film again. Can't recollect at all the MB. On the other hand, Jeanne Moreau's face is unforgettable.

Elton John: Madman Across the Water '71 release.
Musically still on the same extension as to Tumbleweed Connection.

Very good album. I have a decent Japanese pressing somewhere in the shelves.

that got the shunt 
Elton John: Caribou 1974 Release.
John is well on the way to become a power pop super star.
Musically tho, it is not very interesting.
Remain: Them are us too.
I can't remember where and when I got this, or what pressing it is, but it sounds very nice. I'm playing it because the sun is shining here in South London:
