The Animals – Retrospective (2004) [CD-Layer + Hi-Res SACD Rip]

The Animals - Retrospective (2004) [CD-Layer + Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Initially, the Animals’ Retrospective looks like just another greatest-hits compilation recycling the same old tracks already easily available elsewhere. Yawn! Yet, on closer inspection, there’s a big difference with this particular set. These 22 tracks are taken from the ABKCO masters and utilize Direct Stream Digital (DSD), containing both CD and Super Audio CD layers. ABKCO initially previewed this technology with much fanfare on the Rolling Stones’ reissues of 2003. Continue reading “The Animals – Retrospective (2004) [CD-Layer + Hi-Res SACD Rip]”

Blue Chamber Quartet - Children's Songs (2009) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Ana Caram - Rio After Dark (1989) [2002, Reissue, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

In stylistic terms, large portions of Ana Caram’s first U.S. album could easily have been recorded in 1962; it’s as if time had stood perfectly still since “Desafinado” became a hit. Yet this is all for the good for this Antonio Carlos Jobim protegé, who can comfortably give material by the more contemporary writer Djavan, and even Carole King’s “You’ve Got a Friend,” the bossa nova treatment.
