Merry Christmas to all!
Following heavy Metal with this is kinda wrong but...wth.
I thought Madonna sang a version of Ava Maria but I couldn't find it on the web. But I did find what I think my memory said was a fine sounding voice on this song instead. This is what I now remember being special.
Years ago It triggered the HDCD light on my player when it came on. It was so NICE. I couldn't believe the clarity!

LOL. WTF are you talking about? Your answers are in the post. For example, the last post shows Incantation playing song Messiah Nostrum.Lumin X1 file player, Westminster Labs interconnect cable

I still see no point in this thread. It's not like people are posting comments/reviews of the music or the quality of a particular recording nor are there soundtrack links. The whole thing comes across as "look at me" I can post pics of album covers. PffffftPolitical Correctness'.........defined

This will suffice, no? It's not Vanilla, it's extra BS we do not need to see post after post after post after post after post.
The rest is fluff.
Jesse, many of us discover new music this way (on this thread). While it may be better to discuss each album on it's own merits?
This is what we have. Over 2M views and the single most popular thread on pretty much any forum today.

Fixed and that's sad, IMO. At least on other forums they discuss the music and sound quality of different masterings, etc.Political Correctness'.........defined

I agree, Tom. I don't understand what the point is of taking up the entire screen with this:
This isn't relevant and it just results in more unnecessary scrolling. -
Like I said. Lazy......
To much damned information. Just tell us WTF you are listening too Mr. Lazy a55.

So, after thinking about this, I agree maybe there was too much information. Personally, I prefer more versus less, although where you draw the line can be debatable. Anyway, I edited the screen shot to only show who’s playing.

Yes, sometimes even the direct approach will not work. At least you tried.
For me, I like to look at the art of the album covers, and discover new music."Sometimes you have to look to the past to understand where you are going in the future"Anger is just anger. It isn’t good. It isn’t bad. It just is. What you do with it is what matters.
You can use it to build or to destroy. You just have to make the choice. Jim Butcher
