This album really didn’t get the attention it deserved. All of the songs are amazing from Chicago’s hit Hard To Say I’m Sorry to Love At Second Sight all of the songs are special. Though i prefer The Best Of Me with Olivia Newton-John, this version still great. Continue reading “David Foster – The Best Of Me (1983) {1984, MFSL Remastered, CD-Quality + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip}”

Recorded quickly during Led Zeppelin’s first American tours, Led Zeppelin II provided the blueprint for all the heavy metal bands that followed it. Since the group could only enter the studio for brief amounts of time, most of the songs that compose II are reworked blues and rock & roll standards that the band was performing on-stage at the time. Not only did the short amount of time result in a lack of original material, it made the sound more direct.

Sarah Brightman – Eden (1998) [2004, Reissue, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Sarah Brightman - Eden (1998) [2004, Reissue, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Sarah Brightman’s 1999 release Eden applies her rich, supple voice to 16 tracks that range from classical to pop to haunting ballads. The album features “Il Mio Cuore Va,” Titanic’s “My Heart Will Go On” sung in Italian; “Scene d’Amour,” the theme from The English Patient; and “Nessun Dorma” from Puccini’s Turandot. Brightman’s pop side emerges with tracks like “Dust in the Wind” and the Richard Marx-written and -produced “The Last Words You Said.” Eden’s wide range and Brightman’s beautiful voice are a winning combination.

Sarah Brightman - La Luna (2000) [2004, Reissue, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Broadway star Sarah Brightman lends her ethereal, angelic vocals to another combination of classical and pop, resulting in a solid, stirring collection. This outing, the ex-Mrs. Andrew Lloyd Webber adapts Rachmaninov (“How Fare This Spot”), Beethoven (“Figlio Perduto”), and Handel (“Solo Con Te”) alongside the brothers Gibb and Simon and Garfunkel. The uncanny thing is how canny Brightman is at bridging the contemporary with the classics so that they seem timeless.

After debuting with 1973’s excellent but neglected Show Your Hand (later reissued as Put It Where You Want It), the Average White Band switched from MCA to Atlantic and hit big with this self-titled gem. Upon first hearing gutsy, Tower of Power-influenced funk like “Person to Person” and the instrumental “Pick Up the Pieces” (a number one R&B hit), many soul fans were shocked to learn that not only were the bandmembers white — they were whites from Scotland.

The Criteria for the selection of releases by the Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab, is nothing less than what all audiophiles demand from their own reproduction systems. In addition to a broad frequency response, negligible signal processing, and quiet, clean presings, a truly 3-dimensional stereophonic effect is mandatory. It wasn’t difficult then, for me to select a our premier release, The Mystic Moods Ochestra’s performance of “Emotions.” Continue reading “The Mystic Moods Orchestra – Emotions (1968) [1978, MFSL Remastered, CD-Quality + Hi-Res Vinyl Rip]”

“Cosmic Force” was surrealistically recorded in 1973, nearly four years before anyone had even heard of Star Wars. One of my associate producer, who has spent years in Space himself (hmmmm), brought this concept to earth in musical form. To him, the album represents all that there is, there ever was, or there ever will be.

Kriya – Kriya (2006) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Kriya - Kriya (2006) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Talk about crossover! Kriya recorded their album in Finland, the songs are mostly translated from the original Sanskrit to Finnish, & the music generally sounds to me like a mix of Indian, Irish & Finnish. There are English translations printed of the lyrics, but this is another of those graphic failures where the background art or photography obscures the type & it is often unreadable. There do seem to be some connections between East Indian Sanskirt & Finnish, though I don’t know the details. Several of the songs have traditional Indian lyrics.

This is as close to Latin purist Mongo as we have heard in recent years, an eight-piece salsa band — including several members of the 1997 Tito Puente ensemble, like trumpeter Ray Vega, altoist Bobby Porcelli and tenorman Mitch Frohman — playing a brace of Mongo classics and Latin jazz pieces live before a hushed crowd in Seattle’s Jazz Alley.

Monty Alexander – Monty Meets Sly And Robbie (2000) [CD-Layer + Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Monty Alexander - Monty Meets Sly And Robbie (2000) [CD-Layer + Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Jazz purists may turn up the nose at this jazz-reggae summit meeting, but that’s their loss. It’s not that they wouldn’t have the right to be suspicious — experiments in jazz-reggae fusion do not have a distinguished history. But the combination of Jamaican-born jazz pianist Monty Alexander and reggae godfathers Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare works beautifully here for a number of reasons: first of all, Alexander is a gifted melodist with an unerring sense of groove (not always a given with jazz players), and second of all, Sly and Robbie emancipated themselves long ago from reggae’s rhythmic strictures, so there’s lots of variety on this album.
