Caravan - "In the Land of Grey and Pink" in DVD-Audio - one of the most beloved and eccentric prog albums of them all with the music switching between medieval folk and jazz - 4.5 out of 5.
Rory Gallagher - "Deuce" a masterpiece of advancing dynamics which captures the energy of a live performance in the studio - 5 out of 5.
Mark Knopfler - "Shangri-La" in DVD-Audio - featuring Knopfler's warm baritone, effortless guitar work and signature storytelling style of songwriting. It is melodic and tasteful - 4 out of 5.
