I love her cover of showbiz kids. GREAT demo material for your system, also.

One thing I like about purchasing DSD from Acoustic Sounds is they review how the DSD is created. The Traffic one should be great in method used in creating the DSD download.

Which album is this on. I love the Steely Dan version so would love to hear her cover ....

Ok, just checked.... the two DSD downloads are created from the original DSD files used for the SACD which were created from the original master tapes.... as they say, "... the closest to analog sound you're going to find with digital source material..."

Show Biz Kids is on "It's Like This".... I guess I have found the next two DSD purchases that I am going to make ....

ok, Rickie Lee is going to take some getting use to... half way through second album... quite different. Show Biz Kids is on deck though, so we will see...

Wow. Shows that there are different strokes for folks, as rlj is just amazing to me.

Not saying bad... her voice is very different.... her takes on covers are very interesting... since I never heard anything but her first album way back when....

The recordings are excellent.... some of my absolute favorite music took me several listens... I am assuming RLJ will take a few listens for it to grow on me.

Shelby Lynne took a few plays, now I absolutely love it... Norah Jones is really growing on me... I have purchased 2 albums of each of these great artist along with Diana Krall. I will probably end up grabbing more Norah and Diana since they each have several DSD recordings available.

I wish that some Alanis Morrisette would get released in DSD. Amazing voice... a lot of her stuff has came out in HD though, which is good and a really amazing 192kHz 2015 remaster special edition was recently released, which is excellent.

Hell yeah. And kt Tunstall, Invisible Empire // Crescent Moon. Totally different but awesome.

No Eva Cassidy in HD digital downloads ...

How about Holly Cole "Temptation"... anyone know this album... great ratings on the DSD, compared against the best of the best vinyl pressings.
