Once again: what are you listening to now? Part 2.

[Bobby Bass]

George Harrison with Eric Clapton Live in Japan. 2 LP set. Actually listened to it on an mp3 that I've had for 20 years. Recorded at 96 kbps! Dang. Well that's fine, because I purchased a sealed 180 gram reissue set on Discogs last night for a great price. .

They sound great together and their backstory with Patty Boyd is the stuff of rock legend.

She had three smash hits written about her. Doubt many others can put that on her resume. "Something", "Layla" and "The Way You Look Tonight".

True. I didn’t know Something was about her too.

My "new" Sony Blu-ray player also does SACD so I bought a couple to try it out.

Wonder why Clapton referred to her as Layla? One of my all-time favorite songs with Clapton and Duane Allman on guitars.

I haven’t played SACD discs with my BluRay player. How does it sound compared to other versions?

Exactly as any other one when used as a HDMI transport, barring any bugs?

My 2015 model Denon AVR-X4200W has a very clear differences in bass between DSD and PCM (converted from DSD to PCM in player) with DSD anaemic. That is an issue with older Denon receivers.
