Gaucho UHQR Review & the Steely Dan Releases So Far

Here I speak about the release of Steely Dan's "Gaucho" on UHQR and the entire UHQR series so far.
Don't forget to add Spudlok's "BIH!" (the album I wrote, performed and produced with my pal Todd) to your collection today!

Spot on Bill, nice review! I have Can’t Buy A Thrill and Aja (Miles Davis too). Ordered Katy Lied after first listen of Gaucho.

I’m so ready for Royal Scam. That was my first SD lp as well.

That runout idea is actually a good one, hope it gets taken seriously

[@aa5az423]

I think people say they've got problems with Pretzel Logic because other people say they've got problems with Pretzel Logic. I just don't hear the bunk they're talking about. It's sounds great.

[@BillsBoxOfSound]

It's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

[@eric_bee]

The only thing I hear on Pretzel Logic that sounds off, is on "Parker's Band". It was at a slightly quicker tempo. I don't know if that was a mistake, or if the previous issues were. In any case, the rest of it sounds incredible! I'm not saying that Parker's doesn't sound good, but it was the only thing that I could hear, that was off.

To each their own. The UHQR Kind of blue to me is a clear step down from the original vinyl. Will sell mine. To each their own ears. 🎶🤙👍. Nice review.

Pretzel logic is my favorite SD

[@BillsBoxOfSound]

I love all the SD albums, I just think the original sounds more rockin'. Thanks for watching!

[@davidatkinson-lifematters4826]

Yay! The Royal Scam was my first too. Still love it. Gaucho is my fave though. I won't be buying the UHQR, however, as it's FAR too expensive. Aja leaves me cold. Go figure. 😇

Good job Bill… Bernie makes less runout to make room to write in the deadwax :)

[@BillsBoxOfSound]

There’s enough room to write the liner notes on these!

[@SafeAndSoundTXAudioExcursion]

@@BillsBoxOfSound BG has to autograph it and his hand isn’t rock steady at this point, so let’s “cut” him some slack :)

[@EmotionalSnail]

Have you ever given Demons Dance Alone or Animal Lover a listen? Phenomenal Residents work from the early 2000’s!

[@paulayers1111]

Agreed! Wormwood is also PHENOMENAL

[@BillsBoxOfSound]

I'll give 'em a try.

[@MarkFreeman-kd2hz]

I ❤ Can't buy a thrill.

A UHQR made from the digital master

[@chrismckee4154]

It was recorded on 24 track analog Dolby. It mixed in analog as well. It’s not a digital master.

[@BillsBoxOfSound]

Correct!

[@exponentmantissa5598]

@@BillsBoxOfSound So why not get the digital DSD version and skip the DA conversion and album equalization?

[@BillsBoxOfSound]

Once again: There are no digital steps in the making of the Gaucho UHQR.
