Lon, thanks for the input on Carmen.  Unfortunately quite a few jazz singers/musicians performed pop tunes in the late 60's and 70's...sometimes it's not so bad...others make me cringe.  Mark.

Carmen actually pulls many of them off, but the instrumental backing . . . well I admit that it makes me cringe.

A good starting point is the two cd box set "I'll be Seeing You" on Decca GRP. Nice overview of the Decca years in decent if not spectacularly great sound.

Listened to this about three times the last few days. I forgot how nice it is. The new 24 bit cd from Japan sounds the best I've ever heard this. Thank goodness Japan is still putting out improved digital!

If you haven't heard it, you'll dig it. This is my very favorite Clapton sideman performance.

Syd,  I saw Hubert Sumlin at the 2004 Crossroads Guitar Festival at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas....see first clip.  The second clip is just a song I dig from another concert...a classic done by Joe Cocker during his Mad Dogs and Englishmen Tour, here done at Crossroads 2010. Mark.

Sometime the Smokestack riff lingers in my mind longer than I`d like  :)
Big voice.... Family were a good live act and album band in the dim and distant. Roger Chapman would get very animated.

Theres footage of a 2013 reunion gig ..... I prefer to remember them as was.

Oh and how can I forget

I have the HDTracks version of this album in 96/24 and the reverberation trails on the cymbals are just amazing.

The amps are seasoning beautifully and the tube compliment is making a good case for leaving alone. I ear wigged one of your posts Lon and backed the CSP2+`s pre/outs down a couple of clicks and turned the volume up to compensate. I do believe I`ve hit a sweet spot on the CSP at 75%. This album is cavernous.

What album is that Ace ? Know what you mean about saving some pennies for Decware gear....I should have sent my Rachaels in by now for Jupiter caps and that`ll cost all told about as much as a CSP. The horizon is getting nearer though.

Arggh, it`ll be half as much. That means I could send them in now. I must wait for the new King Crimson album to be delivered which will be just after Feb 5. Decisions desisions.

Listening to this one in preparation for the new one coming so soon.

At first I wasn't too impressed with this one but over the last year I've come to really enjoy it.

Currently listening to Karl Denson/Dance Lesson #2
The Torii MKlV takes this cd to new heights. The separation and clarity of instruments is truly outstanding.  :)

Just finished up a fine set with George Benson / Earl Klugh - - Collaboration.
Played through the Torii MKlV / Primaluna Premium Preamp / Oppo 105...the sound was spectacular.

The wife isn't home and I'm feeling Naughty...let's give the Torii (1) more watt...living on the edge in Kansas.

Currently listening to:
Joshua Redman/Freedom in the Groove
Fantastic combination of sax, piano, bass, guitar, and drums.

Put in this old favorite as an evaluation tool--in the system at Dad's I swapped out the Torii Mk II for a Torii Mk III with Jupiter caps, and the CSP2+ without Jupiter caps for one with Jupiter caps. Not a HUGE change in the sound but significant.
