I don't know who that is, or if it's actually library stock music or not. It's kind of got a laid back feel to it. Maybe try some west coast stuff. Like this:

Chico also did two good records for Solid State that had Steve Potts on hand. And then the two Blue Notes that had Arthur Blythe. Don't sleep on Chico Hamilton!

I'd recommend just about any Chico Hamilton record post '75. I haven't heard them all but the ones I've heard are all solid. Starting with Nomad, but can go as far as Believe and Twelve Tones of Love.

Name recognition aplenty!

The reality is I could list at lest 100. Here are just a few that quickly come to mind Here are some more.

Frank Strazzeri made some fine records in the 70s for Revelation, Discovery, and Catalyst. This "reunion" record is quite good. The Lennie Niehaus Fresh Sounds dates are also worth tracking down. 2 studio dates with Perkins and (on one but not the other, Jack Nimitz).

Just to be clear: It's not an A>D to a D>A conversion within the phono preamp, it's an A>D conversion for either PCM or DSD (your choice) within the phono preamp, and then output digitally to the DAC and converted to an analog signal there.

I read someone mentioning the Concord Maybeck Hall series of cds so I pulled a few out to revisit. This one now: “Toshiko Akiyoshi at Maybeck” Concord cd It’s very good.

Op.42, Op.55, Op.103

That’s pretty cool.

That sure looks good. I have been a fan of the partnership of Tyner and Hutcherson, which happened many times over the span of their careers. I would have liked a version of "African Village," but this record certainly looks like a worthy addition.
