What are you listening to right now?

I was listening to Diana Krall to see what all the hubbub is about, and I know it's sacrilege, but this saved me. DK just doesn't do it for me. There, I said it... I'll duck now!

No reason to duck.  Ms. Krall is talented, but she's no Ella Fitzgerald- but then, I don't think anyone is.

I certainly can't argue with that.

My first exposure to this Thomas /SFS series was the West Side Story SACD which was very good and so far none of the others have disappointed me.

Available on Tidal and definitely worth a listen.

Vanessa Fernandez: I Want You



Tidal Streaming

Another excellent sounding release from the folks at Groove Note.

But while the sonics are first rate, and I am sure I will be hearing this one quite a bit whenever we start to do audio shows again, I did not care for it musically as much as her previous albums.

Al Stewart: Rhymes in Rooms



Tidal Streaming

A live all acoustic show. Normally I am a fan of these "unplugged" type albums, but in this case the acoustic arrangements are so overly busy that they become a distraction and IMO take away from, rather than add to the songs themselves.
