Jane Monheit on DVD-A

I just bought "Come Dream With Me" & "Never Never Land" today- both are superb.  She has a great voice and the sound is fantastic.  DVD-A pricing is coming down a bit it would seem; both of these were $15 each.  I've been wanting 'em on CD, but the CD is the same price!

DVD-A has now taken the lead in my collection:  24 DVD-A's vs 21 SACD.

Have you ever heard Terence Blanchard's "Let's Get Lost"??? Blanchard is a great jazz trumpet player a la Wynton Marsalis et al. (he did the trumpet work in Spike Lee's "Mo' Better Blues").  Monheit does two guest tracks on that CD/SACD that you might like.  Blanchard also does a couple instrumentals and features several leading lights of jazz vocals--Diana Krall, Cassandra Wilson & Dianne Reeves.

Thanks for the tip.  I just love it when the hi-rez issue is the same as the cd...no brainer.  

I picked up Elvis' sacd North for $15...figured what the hell it is the same price as the CD.  I hope it grows on me after a few more spins. :|
