I received my Madeleine Peyroux album on Tuesday. I thought the album was good, not great but good. Some of the selections were a little veiled and did not seem to have the umph that the other tracks had. Although a few of the tracks were really nice, great soundstaging and nice bass.
For me this is late night listening music. It is quiet, subtle, and very easy going. Her voice is just so smooth and velvety. One thing that may be influencing my impression is, I listened to it at really low levels, 65 - 70 db, it was late at night and my wife was asleep. So, maybe with a little volume it will sound a bit better.
I would recommend this to anyone that likes Billie Holiday and easy going Jazz/Blues.

War On Drugs "Lost In The Dream"
I like the CD so much I decided to get in on Vinyl as well, something I don't do very often.
Its got immersive style that hooks you and is equally enjoyable playing quietly in the background for chilling out or cranking up the volume and letting it rock.

Nickel Creek, Nickel Creek, on vinyl. I think this was from a digital master. The soundstage doesn't seem as good as the CD. I'll give it a clean and decide if I buy any more vinyl of them.

If anyone's interesting, I just received email from HDTracks with link to this album: http://www.hdtracks.com/beautiful-life and scored one for myself already.
Beautiful music in hi-rez files for cheap, a breathtaking story and per description in the email: "All proceeds HDtracks receives from Beautiful Life will be donated to The Ana Grace Project of Klingberg Family Centers, founded by Greene's wife Nelba", so we all can contribute to something good in this special time of the year.

There was too much Robert Plant and not enough Alison Krauss for me on that one. I guess I am not that into Plant.
However, I hope you enjoy it.

So, I'm not alone. However I found the CD a nice home with someone who liked it. No need for it to collect dust on the shelf.

Nice!
Orcutt is amazing!
My favorite record of new music in 2014 was Richard Dawson's Nothing Important. By far. Totally amazing, but obviously not to everyone's tastes.

I bought a CD of Pet Sounds several years back. It just didn't appeal to me.
