Omar Sosa ~ Across the Divide: A Tale of Rhythm and Ancestry (2009)

Listening via my new Audiolab 6000CDT

That's a transport, right? So what are using for a DAC?

But the album does have one of Schumann's lesser known songs, "Der Schneevogel".

I think, therefore I am.

ETA: I laugh, because I translate. I translate, therefore I laugh.

And I achieve pseudo-literacy through Google Translate.

Peter Green / Nigel Watson / Splinter Group ~ The Robert Johnson Songbook (1998)



One of the acclaimed attributes of this CDT is that it easily plays CDs that other CDPs do not play or that have reading issues. I am currently checking out this error-correction ability on some prior-to-now difficult CDs.

You could've just ripped it to FLAC using EAC and then burned a CDR.

I'll do that in another life.

Spoonfed Hybrid ~ Spoonfed Hybrid (1993)



This is utterly gorgeous.

RYM Review, in pertinent part: There are no highlights – the entire collection is a continuous flare of musical brilliance – not blinding but lighting the way.

Roland Kirk - We Free Kings (1962)

IQU ~ Sun Q (2004)

 

[Zeeba Neighba]

Jimmy Raney - A (1957)

No Miles, Satchmo or 'Trane today - spinning some oft-forgotten jazz artists (I guess not so much Roland Kirk, but not many people think about folks like Ike Quebec and Raney much these days)

 

[Zeeba Neighba]

Ben Webster - King of the Tenors (1957)

Own a lot of Ben Webster (but, Zeeb, now through Spotify, we all do - too true) - have always loved his sound

 

[axolotl]

IQU ~ Teenage Dream (Remixes) (2000)



I don't know why this is listed as an EP. It is over 50 minutes long.
