In Reply to: What are your "reference" recordings, when you compare equipment? posted by Dick Schneiders on December 15, 2005 at 12:30:02:
1. Rickie Lee Jones S/T debut on MFSL. Great sonics, greater performance, particularly the string bass on "Easy Money" and "Danny's All-Star Joint" and RLJ's vocals, of course.2. Thelma Houston and Pressure Cooker "I've Got The Music In Me" Sheffield Direct to Disc. Probably the most dynamic LP I own, and Thelma's vocals are awesome. Ditto the horns.
3. Chuck Mangione "Feels So Good" on MFSL. Dynamic, rhythmic and a great LP to evaluate brass.
4.George Benson "Breezin'" MFSL. Great guitar, especially when George keeps his trap shut.
5. Brahms Symphony No. 1. Solti/CSO. The one recorded in Medinah Temple on London. For full-scale orchestral power, this is the one I pull out.
