So was I - can’t remember much about it though 😟. Back to the post - I keep coming back to the late 60’s/ early70’s, so Filles, IASW, Bitches Brew, Jack Johnson & On The Corner + associated box sets.

Thelonious Monk - Genius of Modern Music. Blue Note 85 CD

Sad news. RIP

Dennis “Black Beard” Bovell - Strictly Dub Wize. CD rip

imho it's definitely worth trying HQPlayer utilising the SOtM Ultra NAA option but get used to the Qutest first.

Cannonball Adderley - Something' Else. SACD rip

Stevie Wonder - Talking Book. SACD rip

Even sounding really good on Led Zep 1🤔. Anyone want to buy a KGST? Only joking.....or am I? Seriously, people say the SR007 Mk2 is the "dynamic" e-stat - starting to understand why. Will go back to the KGST tomorrow and play the same tracks.
