Indipop -
Jine mera dil luteya
Fitoor and Sapney(Silk Route)
Tere bin jeena nahin
Woh chali woh chali(Bombay Vikings)
Piya basanti
Pyar ke geet suna ja re

Bollywood -
Hoshwalon ko khabar kya(my favourite track to listen to in terms of hearing pleasure)
Chanda re chanda re
Dheeme Dheeme(Zubaida)
Dil kehta hain chal unse mil
Ghanan Ghanan
Jaane kyon log pyar karte hain
Mujhe raat din
Aye zindagi gale laga le
Dil hoom hoom kare
Do naina aur ek kahani
Jimmy Jimmy
All songs of Ijazat
Kya yehi pyaar hai
Silli hawa chho gayi
Tera saath hain kitna pyara
Tu rutha toh main
Tujhse naraz nehi
Yaar mera kho gaya
Yeh zameen ha rahi hai
Yeh vaada raha
Roz Roz aankhon tale

English(disclaimer - my exposure to Western music is fairly limited) -
After hours(Troyboi)
Billie Jean
Coco jumbo
You're my heart
The three degrees
Hallelujah and Hurt(vocals sound so powerful)
Last Christmas
The final countdown
Rosanna
Ace of base songs
Dancing queen

Very nice sounding , songs + recording

 

[Nitin K]

Keith Dont Go - Guitar sequences are amazing

Viraah - Sense of stage performance with a wide soundstage, has amazing lows in a rhythm

Also "No Sanctuary here" which you have listed & was recommended by a FM , in love with the song now.

Really enjoyed the Guitar seq in "Keith don't go" & the clarity is really good. Extremely well played.

If you liked Don Williams , you should also check out albums by Chris Jones (Moonstruck to be specific ). Beautiful acoustic recording.

The 50th Anniversary edition of In the Court of Crimson King is also one hell of a system tester as it has almost all frequencies playing at all times in few songs. And it is one of the seminal progressive rock albums of all time - probably even more influential than Dark Side of the Moon. The CD is almost as good as the vinyl.

Ans id you like Chris Jones. listen to Allan Taylor! Top notch recordings too including Stockfish. And what poetry!

Trentemoller, Thivery Corp, Tanghetto.

Yep. Have 3 Allan Taylor Stockfish CDs bought from UK.

Highly recommend Josephine Cromholm(Wild Garden) and Anne Bisson (Blue Mind ). Not sterile recordings like Diana Krell , these two albums have real depth , passion and melody while being acoustically brilliant.

For pure poetry , I look no furthur than Jackson Browne and of course Cohen.

Any particular album of Allan Taylor to start with?

Colour to the moon by Allan Taylor recorded by Stockfish at the start of the thread.

@ Oracle 1974, thanks for recommending CDhut. Have ordered 2 CD's from them.

Yes, that’s good. My personal favourite is ‘Hotels and Dreamers’. You can pick any of Allan Taylor’s - won’t be disappointed.

Try her ‘Live in Paris’. It’s spontaneous and improvised. Also good recording for a live show.

For pure poetry , I look no furthur than Jackson Browne and of course Cohen.

And our own Gulzar too!
