Eilen Jewell "Queen of the Minor Key." Think it is her best album to date and all of them are good.

Eilen is a good relatively new performer. I have one of her previous albums. Just ordered the new one that you recommended.

Also listening to Zoe Muth and the Lost High Rollers "Starlight Hotel" www.zoemuth.com

Zoe sings back-up on one of the cuts on the new Eilen Jewell album and also opened for her on the show I saw on June 23.

I've seen Eilen several times and the band has just gotten so good playing together for several years. Jerry Miller is off the charts on guitar

PS - The new album is also well recorded. The band's bass player did the mastering

Nice to see some jazz and vocal around here. I was starting to think I was in the middle of a bunch of hard-rock-only dudes!

Well... Metal isn't a choice. It's how people are born. Like male, female, metalhead, etc...

My collection is about 30% rock and metal, and the rest is other stuff, basically everything except house/rave and anything derived from it.

Using the iPad2 with the MPad interface to control the BDP-1.

I have the 24/96 hi res version from HDTracks and it is excellent -- very well recorded. Bryston chose to include one of the album's tracks on the thumbdrive included with the BDP-1. And since Christy looks so good

Bryston featured the album cover photograph in their Stereophile (July 2011) ad for the BDP. The album and Christy -

I have one of Christy's albums on Chesky records as well. The stuff I've heard is well recorded.

I definitely listen to jazz, classical, and what have you. That's for serious listening. I listen to hard rock for fun!
