  But I have only one LP from Opus3 - the Test Record 4, which by the way contains "The House of the Rising Sun". The other Opus3 of mine are all CDs and IMO they are pretty well made also.
  
  I was in one of the Stereophile audio show in Miami some 15, 16 years ago. The Vendersteen room used "Wade in the Water" and "Black is the Color" to demonstrate their speakers. Quite a success! The vocal is warm and powerful, big soundstage, I could see that most people in that room were very impressed.
  
  Among other Opus3 recordings, I can recommend Eric Bibb's "Rainbow People", basically a lighter album than the Cyndee one and with a nostalgic mood. There is a track "Encuentro en la Estacion" that always gives me an illusion traveling in a small train across the rural area somewhere south, watching the fields and clouds, passing villages, clothes hanging out, dogs sitting in the corner, things like that.
  
  Another album "Concertos for Double bass and Orchestra" is a nicely recorded, small scale classical disc. Maybe I should not use small scale 'cause it's orchestra recording but it is not the big and wide orchestral stuff that we usually hear anyway. Very realistic sound.
