We are glad to release this True Audiophile: The Best Of Groove Note, Volume 2 after the success of True Audiophile - The Best Of Groove Note Volume 1, Groove Note presents another audiophile collection of their talented artists in DSD! Just like the original True Audiophile album, Volume 2 features some of the best cuts from a world renowned music label, Groove Note! All 14 tracks are from the Original Direct-to-DSD or the Original Analog-to-DSD recordings. The album features the vocals of Diana Krall. The album highlights include: The intimate, delicate, sweet and tender voice of Jacintha; Roy Gaines, the greatest living blues guitarist that you probably don't know anything about, a sizzling blues guitarist with one of the most magnificent blues voices around; Eden Atwood, who has a voice that is many things - seductive, plaintive, sensitive, gifted with perfect intonation and phrasing, and entertaining; Touring as the guitarist for Diana Krall, Anthony Wilson is one of the most brilliant musicians working in the U.S. jazz scene; Bill Cunliffe is a leading West Coast jazz pianist with several albums to his credit; With a sensual and seductive voice right out of the '40s or '50s, Luqman Hamza (pronounced Luke-mahn Hahm-za) is a real discovery; And rounding out this already impressive list, tenor saxophonist extraordinaire Bennie Wallace! Diana Krall - Vocals Jacintha - Vocals Roy Gaines - Vocals Eden Atwood - Vocals Lauren White - Vocals Luqman Hamza - Vocals Jay McShann - Vocals Anthony Wilson - Guitar Bennie Wallace - Saxophone

Thom Jurek

Groove Note Records began releasing jazz and blues recordings in 2005. They've also expanded their vision and have begun to re-release rare tracks by vintage artists and look to genre-bending vocalists in order to showcase excellent music coming from the jazz and blues traditions.

True Audiophile, Volume 2 is the second sampler of the label's wares. It contains tracks by many of their artists, such as soul-jazz guitarist Anthony Wilson, gorgeous ballads and standards by Jacintha, blues by none other than Jay McShann, modern-day samba by Eden Atwood, and some beautiful straight-ahead work by saxophonist Bennie Wallace to mention a few.

In addition to the excellent performances, Groove Note is an audiophile label with the highest production standards. Making this collection a second excellent introduction to the label.

Janacek - Glagolitic Mass, Bulba - Rhapsody
★★★★★ Alexander Huelle
Janacek - Glagolitic Mass, Bulba - Rhapsody

Old Janáček wrote a catholic mass, albeit in Church Slavonic, from a manuscript written in Glagolitic scripture. One critic called it a testimony of an old believer, Janáček replied: neither old nor believer. So what is its purpose? In my opinion it's just a wonderfully wild piece of music, evoking an old Slavonic world. The performance and recording are excellent. Not to miss, I would say.

François Couperin: Leçons De Ténèbres
★★★★★ Miguel Ulla
François Couperin: Leçons De Ténèbres

It’s brilliant to be on this platform. It’s the one that takes the best care of audio quality. This release is an attestation!

François Couperin: Leçons De Ténèbres
★★★★★ Irene G.
François Couperin: Leçons De Ténèbres

A real gem. The most profound, vibrant and, above all, unique interpretation of these masterpieces, the Leçons de ténèbres. I had the chance to hear them performed live by Miguel and Aurea Vox; now, this album is like that moment, preserved forever. Absolutely brilliant: Miguel is becoming increasingly special, personal and beautiful.

The Blue Hour Sessions: Audiophile Jazz Recordings [Pure DSD]

The Blue Hour Sessions: Audiophile Jazz Recordings [Pure DSD]

Simply beautiful Jazz music. This Pure DSD 256 file is amazing at creating a very believable stage in front of your listening room.

This album, with a few others from NativeDSD, was part of a DSD review I did on my YouTube channel (mikesvinylexperience). The Blue Hours Sessions is a go-to for me when I just want to unwind with a great musical and sonic experience!

The Golden Hour Sessions: Audiophile Jazz Recordings [Pure DSD]
★★★★★ Bill Maietta
The Golden Hour Sessions: Audiophile Jazz Recordings [Pure DSD]

Okay, I couldn't agree more with the first two reviews here. If you enjoy the cut-and-dried simplicity of a Jazz Trio, or you're just in the mood, give this a try.

The musicians and the recording are fantastic. Such precision and so serene. Bravo!
