I played this again earlier tonight after the Jackson Browne tribute. As much as I raved about the sound quality of he JB trib, the 88/24 version of this this has even better sound; with an analog like sense of ease. Thank God the loudness wars are only ruining 90% of rock albums, & not all of them!

Dang, wish I'd gotten news of this album/tour earlier; she's playing at the Tarrytown Music Hall on July 19, which is about 20 minutes away from me but which is also sold out

This does sound really, really good, and so does the JB tribute. There have been a few releases like this recently that have made me reevaluate the sound quality potential of standard rebook CDs. I've got a few now, including some AF, MFSL, and Iconoclassic remasters, that are amazingly analog-like -- smooth, warm, and with some real depth, but striking clarity. I'm starting to wonder if the format is really coming into its own just as other formats -- hi res download, BluRay audio, SACD -- are starting to replace it, at least with audiophiles.
