.in truth it is a very good sounding recording that several mastering engineers have told me they use as a reference CD to this day... who know why but all the stars lined up and it just came out really great....
anyway the Audiophile label took the master on 16 bit CD bumped to both DSD and SACD and are selling a boatload of them to audiophiles.....( in fact they just went to a second pressing) the reviews of the sonic quality in all the audio mags have been stellar... I just kinda laugh at the whole thing knowing the origin of the source material..... So get the best players, great singer, good arrangements, and do careful work and forget about all this sample rate crap....
