The Guess Who: Rockin', The Best of The Guess Who | SACD-MAN (threerandot) - August 30, 2019
Having this now on SACD is something very special and Vocalion is to be commended for their efforts to bring these Guess Who albums to SACD and not just in stereo, but ...
Various artists: The Wonderful Sounds of Female Vocals | breydon_music - September 5, 2019
However no new releases have been announced for over a year now, and the current Living Stereo programme is clearly vinyl only. At least another 3 of the long delayed Prestige ...

Haydn: 8 Symphonies - Brüggen | Jonathan Jao - September 6, 2019

Praga Digitals Reminiscences PRD/DSD 350 083
Mono Hybrid
Classical - Instrumental
Rachmaninov: Etudes-Tableaux Op. 33 (5-7, 9) & Op. 39 (1-4, 7, 9); Preludes Op. 23 (1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8) & Op. 32 (1, 2, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12)
