Swing jazz pianist Jeremy Monteiro, with guest artists, including saxophonist Ernie Watts. The HDCD sound is explosive!

by the excellent pianist Jeremy Monteiro.

Vinyl Essentials (LP)

A test LP to do this hasn’t been available for years. Use it to check cartridge/arm resonance, tracking ability, crosstalk, and more.

Neil Diamond: Serenade (CD)

Just eight songs on this European CBS disc, but what songs! I’ve Been This Way Before, Lady Magdalene, Reggae Strut, The Gift of Song, and more. Glowing sound too.

We haven’t heard Belafonte sound like this except on analog. The 16 songs include Island in the Sun, Jamaica Farewell, Midnight Special, Michael Row the Boat Ashore, Brown Skin Girl, etc.

Sources (CD)

A wonderful recording by Bïa (pronounced Bee-yah). She’s Brazilian, lives in France, recorded this terrific album (in 5 languages!) in Montreal. Just her warm voice and guitar, plus a handful of other fine musicians. Sound to match.

La mémoire du vent (CD)

The original recording by Bïa, in French, Portuguese and English. If you love her second one, don’t hesitate.

Carmin (CD)

The third by Bïa. Different this time, with more money for production, but it has been spent wisely. Superb songs, gloriously sung in Portu- guese, French and the ancient Aymara language.

Coeur vagabond (CD)

Bïa sings French songs in Portuguese, Brazilian songs in French. A delight, as usual from this astonishing singer

Audiophile (CD)

The CD release of Secret of the Andes, the Nautilus disc we wouldn’t review a speaker without. Pianist Victor Feldman and a whole set of jazz greats. Second LP, Soft Shoulder, also included

Nightclub (CD)

Patricia Barber, doing nightclub standards rather than her own songs. But can she do them!

Modern Cool (CD)

The previous release from Patricia Barber, including songs she does live on the Companion live disc (see below).

Companion (CD)
