I cannot remember what song replaced it as number 1 easy listening, but I remember being disappointed. So good to be able to play these oldies but goodies again. Nice quality regardless of the year.

Cheers and thanks for the additional info Nick.

I don't know if I posted this link, but it is so incredibly transparent, natural. This may be one of the half dozen best
quality recordings I have ever heard.

Listening to that on headphones is a trip.
Thanks for bringing that to my attention.
Quite entertaining.

Quality is good. Some question if she is actually singing, but other songs seem to verify her voice.

I played the video again today and then found Marc Broussard's Valentines Day version that has his two young daughters in it. They are both cute in different ways. His older daughter Evie is quite the performer  A good video to put a smile on your face today  :thumb:

Found these selections by accident. Although one may not like song choices, the recordings are 
unbelievably transparent, natural, real. These are among the handful that are the cream of
the crop, the very best in recording quality.

This recording may check the true quality of your system. Do you believe that this recording actually occurred
in the kitchen, in real time?

Going to try an experiment here, since I cannot link my selection from Tidal.

Danish National Orchestra     Diva Dance  (from the fifth element) master

and

Superstition Mike Dawes (not the live version, album What just happened)

I wonder how many will be able to find them? 

cheers
