I became familiar with audio engineer Cookie Morenco while reading the credits on some Windham Hill Records jackets. She went on to found Blue Coast Records. Her first release is called the Blue Coast Collection and it lives up to the mission statement "exceptional acoustic recordings."
While you won’t find real famous folks on it, they are talented musicians with good songs. Very easy listening with outstanding sound quality. I'll stay tuned for future releases.
Available in standard or hi-resolution downloads (DSD, 96kHz) or via mail with SACD. The hi-res downloads are kind of pricey (96kHz @ $40, DSD @ $50). Amazon has the Gold CD/SACD for $27/$30. The BCR site has some free downloads and samplers. Amazon has samplers on the SACD page.

Great link Scomp.I downloaded a free flac file of Alex DeGrassi playing a 39 string guitar.It sounds quite good ,I will certainly be looking further into their catalog. I have a few Windham Hill releases from the 90's that were very well done so Cookie may have been involved with those.

Great link Scomp.
Thanks! She was involved in 100's of projects there, the most famous being Winter Solstice 2. It was or remains the highest selling compilation in Windham Hill's catalogue. She is serious about her gear too.Salk SoundScape 8's * Audio Research Reference 3 * Bottlehead Eros Phono * Park's Audio Budgie SUT * Krell KSA-250 * Harmonic Technology Pro 9+ * Signature Series Sonore Music Server w/Deux PS * Roon * Gustard R26 DAC / Singxer SU-6 DDC * Heavy Plinth Lenco L75 Idler Drive * AA MG-1 Linear Air Bearing Arm * AT33PTG/II & Denon 103R * Richard Gray 600S * NHT B-12d subs * GIK Acoustic Treatments * Sennheiser HD650 * -

^ Good, post Peter Green compilation...
Me? The Grass Roots - All Time Greatest Hits
Surprisingly good... 'Midnight Confessions" is the one hit that I immediately associate with them, but there are more legit here than either I remembered them having, or did not connect with them, e.g., "Let's Live for Today", "Where Were You When I Needed You", and Temptation Eyes.
Nothing too heavy here nice remastering with borderline stunning SQ on a couple tracks (most notably "Let's Live for Today").
More later,
Tour...

Speaking of Peter Green(one of the original MIA FLEETWOOD MAC GUITARISTS')this is his only 'solo' album that I have,,I understand he has put out a few more since his release some time ago--for so many years he was "absent",at least on our plane,,too bad too,excellent musican.JC approves....he told me so.

Still in the greatest hits vein....
Shows that all best-ofs are not created equal...
Its 10-tracks total only 25 minutes (holy AM radio Batman!!!)...
Sonics are uneven as hell; ranging from barely listenable to VVG...
Material runs from classic to "eh"...
Gotta be a better one out there...More later,
Tour...
