Tamaryn - The Waves - 2010 Spinning this again. This is what I think the Cocteau Twins would sound like if they turned the grit up a notch or two. A really good disk and I always enjoy when I go back to it but I am a sucker for reverb and grungy guitar. This is a Cocteau Twinsish type of band but with a lot more reverb guitars playing a continuous Atmospheric rock serenade for about 40 minutes. The band hails from New Zealand, this is their debut and I like it. BBC Review: www.bbc.co.uk/music/reviews/dvb6

Beautiful album! If you get a chance to hear it on DVD-A, it is quite spectacular. I have downloaded it at 192KHz/24bit, beauty..........

Delfaeyo Marsalis: Pontius Pilate's Decision.
If you look at the cover it looks like a religious album but it's not. It's jazz. At first it came off a little pretentious but settling down into it, it worked its magic. Very nice recording quality and the music takes its time to settle into itself. A good sound stage with some appreciable depth. Delfaeyo is Wynton Marsalis's brother and knows how to do his stuff. His style is a little more subdued than his brother's but distinctive but in a similar strain. If you like Wynton's stuff, chances are you will like this.

Tubular Bells - Mike Oldfield Definitely recommended. Oldfield is a genius and plays all instruments himself! Click pic for details.

I just got the blu-ray of Tom Petty's Damn the Torpedos blu-ray. It is interesting going back and forth from the 2 channel, which sounds a bit bright in my system, to the surround sound, which sounds better aside from Petty's voice sounding a bit further back in the mix.
When originally released, it was a bit tame for me and I really did not pay much attention. But listening to it yesterday, man there is a lot of good power pop on that recording! I never got the vinyl, so I cannot compare that, but the blu-ray disc sounds clean and compelling. If you are interested in more high res music choices on discs, get yourself one!

Ravi Shankar plays sitar like nobody else. Mesmerizing! (He's the father of Norah Jones .)
