Lone Palm Posted March 25, 2004 Share Posted March 25, 2004 Just listened to the "Will The Circle Be Unbroken Trilogy". It is comprised of three albums spanning 30 years. #1-1972; #2-1989; and #3-2003. It's a five disc CD box set with the sixth disc being a concert DVD. All Star cast and pristine recording. Only draw back is DVD is in full screen and not wide screen. A must for anyone who likes acoustical music Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eq_shadimar Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 You may want to try this recording out from AIX Records: http://www.aixrecords.com/catalog/mceuen.html This is one of the best DVD-A's that I own. A great demo disc! Laters, Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdm56 Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 So, how do you think the three volumes measure up? To me, it's hard to compare 2 with 1 and 3. It is really a different animal. I was initially disapointed with three, but after a couple of listens, I started to get into it. My 1-10 ratings are as follows: volume I - 10 volume II - 9 volume III - 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Palm Posted April 18, 2004 Author Share Posted April 18, 2004 One 10 and Two 9's is a pretty good score. I think the recording quality is head and shoulders above most everything else. The DVD really struck me. In the special features they speak of various techniques they used. They keep it simple which usually leads to superior recordings. I beleive through my recording experience, the less you do to a signal, the less you have to fix. Most of these albums were done with the musicians sitting in a circle in the same room in the studio.
