A family member gave me a CD by Chris Botti, "Night Sessions" - which is a very pleasant surprise - soft trumpet jazz - almost a melancholy sound.

There is one vocal track called "All Would Envy" sung by Shawn Colvin. Nice song, nice vocals - anyone else know of her work and have a recommendation?

H9: If you don't trust what you are hearing, then maybe you need to be less invested in a hobby which all the pleasure comes from listening to music.

    FWIW - There is a cd compiled by the Polk System Engineers that they use for in house voicing of speakers. One of the tracks is a live version of Sunny Came Home by Shawn Colvin. :cool:

    At least give us a track list and sources :smile:

    Otherwise George Daniel and I are going to have to dress up like Doro and Russman and do a covert op! And GD is going to have to be Doro because the last time I shaved my legs it hurt :wink:

    I had a feeling this would come up. Let me see what I can do. I know another one of the tracks is very hard to find. It's by Big Head Todd and the Monsters. It was only available as part of a radio station compilation CD that sells out every year. Now please understand what I am saying here, the song has been released on other sources but it is this particular live version that is difficult to come by. Stay tuned. Cheers. :cool:
