Infidels [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [Limited Edition] [Blu-spec CD2]Bob DylanOne of His Best
The 80s was in my opinion one of Dylan’s best periods. This album is a highlight with the now classic Jokerman and other strong songs I and I and Sweetheart Like You. The production and playing is impeccable especially with the added bonus of Mick Taylor’s lead guitar and the presence of Mark Knopfler on guitar and as joint producer with Dylan. This series of Blu spec CD releases are exemplary and are equal to the earlier SACD versions and vastly superior to the red book CD releases.

Knocked Out Loaded [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [Limited Edition] [Blu-spec CD2]Bob DylanBetter Than the Critics Say
This album is roundly condemned by critics as being lightweight and directionless and one of Dylan’s worst.I could not disagree more. The arrangements are good and the songs catchy and well produced. Lots of backing singers on most tracks give the album a polished gospel flavour. Includes the classic Brownsville Girl but the other songs are also some of Dylan’s better 80s efforts. One of those times you simply ignore the critics.

Another Self Portrait: Bootleg Series vol.10 Regular Edition [Blu-spec CD2]Bob DylanVastly Underrated
At the time of its release I remember this album was largely panned and considered one of Dylan’s worst releases. However for me I have always enjoyed both the new songs but also Dylan’s interpretation of many of the traditional songs. As usual the production is first class and the Blue-spec disc delivers exceptional sound. The mini lp packaging is faithful to the original release even down to the original textured sleeve. Very much worth having if you are a Dylan fan.

Older <Limited Collector's Edition> [Blu-spec CD2]George MichaelSuperb Sound Quality
The sound quality is superb - my experience is crystal clear, detailed and at the same time the sound is natural, full and warm. Also a pleasant feeling of space. Listened on: Sony CDP-XB930 QS + Sony TA-FA3ES + Shan Emotion E520 speakers

Music From The Motion Picture Soundtrack Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counteratack [Regular Edition] [Blu-spec CD2]Animation SoundtrackA must have for CCA fans
This CD is a must have for those who love the music of this movie. This particular release stands out because it has extra tracks, that were, as far as I know, previously unreleased. The packaging is nice, if somewhat minimal with a pervading black. The sound quality is excellent. Buy without hesitation!

Get Up With It [Blu-spec CD2]Miles DavisEssential. A master piece!!
Get Up With It is an ambitious work, more than two hours of pure creative catharsis, the maximum expression not only of jazz, but of all pop music. Excellent sound
