I wont dismiss your opinion, your entitled to that.Yet when you compare this recording to 80s era digital, my ears tell me your way off the mark on this one, even if you've formed your assessment over several sessions Id have to say 80s digital is critiqued more for having a thin harmonically threadbare sound on the silver disc from that era as well as a bleached lifeless non engaging overall tone, and tinny, steely screechy highs when balanced against the vinyl format, which is known for its warmth, liquid tone , lifelike harmonics and engaging presentation.
Early digital was REALLY BAD and that's just an unjustifiable and unfair comment, when making reference to this recording IMO!
For confirmation one need look no further than all the remastering of discs that's been done, I always prefer more current remasters Allman Broths, Live at the Fillmore for one...
I agree completely with smart845s assessment to the overall sound quality, but again your entitled to your opinion, I just feel its off the mark.
This latest effort from her is very much from the same level of better digital sound of the current era, while not the equal of vinyl to some, in my system {Kora Hermes DAC} it sounds first rate, but credit for sound quality goes to Gavin Lurssen at the Mastering Lab in Hollywood Calif.
Garbage in, Garbage out...
And while I'm at it "Lost Highway" records along with "Blue Note" and Bill Frisells label 'Nonesuch" all produce quality recordings BIGTIME...
Check your system for failures mate... Beam me up Scotty... SEE YA!
