I loved The Girl in the Other Room.

 

That's by far my favourite as well.

DR12 is not bad, but looking at the peak levels it could be brickwalled. -0.02dB it must clips and be distorted at the top. To me another victim of 2017 loudness wars like: Rolling Stones, Sting, Depeche Mode, etc. Musically, listening over the web it fine album, relaxed, but mostly for background listening, not something I care about more.

Well I really like her new album....Her vocals sound so good especially over headphones.  I bought the 192KHz version from HD Tracks and it sounds great to me.  I have been a Diana Krall fan since way before she was famous and this reminds me of her first couple of albums....I listen to WAV files FWIW.

Not a great album but I do enjoy it. Sound quality is pretty good but nothing to phone home about IMHO.

At first I found it disappointing but it has grown on me, certainly not up to her potential. It seems to be recorded loud and maybe another victim of the loudness wars. But it does sound good and I agree its a return to Quiet Nights.

 

Really enjoying the double bass on a few numbers. 24/192
