This album is also available at Bandcamp. I've enjoyed it a lot.

Unholy carp, just a minute in, and I'm already in love.  Purchasing.  Going to pre-order their next album in the 24/96 format, yah?

EDIT:  Never mind, it's not really "their next album", it's older material worked into the big band format -- so, their Sylva, as it were -- but still, glorious, my thing, definitely getting it...

This weekend starts the 2017 edition of SXSW. 

As usual, an unbelievable number of cool stuff. 

So I'm always thankful for NPR doing their "Austin 100". A bin of 100 mp3's from artists that will perform at the festival.

Some of these have horrid SQ but it gives you a heads up before the live streaming begins.

Some Hi-Rez yummage: Cowboy Junkies Trinity Sessions (DSD) and Livingston Taylor Safe Home (24-192)

Trinity is even moar awesomer than other versions I've heard.  Safe Home is excellent sounding, but for the first time - and I've seen and liked Livingston Taylor over many years - I didn't like some of the arrangements/singing.  Still great overall, but I miss the "spark" that he brings to live shows.

Wait, what?

U2 used to occasionally open for themselves during the Joshua Tree tour under the guise of a fake country band called The Dalton Brothers.

I know a lot of people think U2 are arrogant dickheads, but I think this is pretty damn sweet!
