We listened to Buena Vista last night. Very strong reaction from Mrs L who has no idea about any of the tech. Very positive. Huge details in what is generally a complex recording. By complex I mean bass, percussion, vocal harmonies, etc. Many layers. Particularly enjoyed the bass clarity and timing, piano scale and realism, guitars and vocals (Ibrahim, Compay, Omara etc)....and the myriad of percussion used to keep the tracks ticking along. I guess I particularly enjoyed it all. So easy to hear it all I think.

Overall presentation very "live". There were many passages that really gave a sense of players stood in the room.

This is the first MQA album that I have which I know pretty well. Have to say I am rather excited about it.

For reference.....Ruby 8kSE & 808v6.
