Bob Dylan - Time Out of Mind

My first experience with this album was the SDE Bluray which was remixed.
This now is Daniel Lanois’ murky/atmospheric original mix. I like it but think it would benefit from hi-rez, too bad it wasn’t included on the Bluray.
Which is “better”?.Both have their strengths but I’m leaning towards the remix.

I started this morning with Atmos of TesseracT-War Of Being, 3 tunes in, too heavy for me in the morning.
I switched to the brand new Stereo release, Steve Miller Band-J50 The Evolution Of The Joker, 2 disc CD set. Pretty cool as there are 43 tracks live/demos/album and 6 tracks called Steve Miller Commentary where he adds comments about the evolution of The Joker.
DR's are 6's, 7's, 8's, 9's.

Eagles - Hell Freezes Over

The XRCD from 2000.
Had heard bits and pieces of this album over the years and knew one of the four studio tracks, but first time beginning to end.
Sound is pretty good, though I think other versions I’ve sampled (dts maybe? Or video) had more impact.

I have the JVC XRCD CD version of THE JOKER which I got a 'deal' on from elusive disc [$15 brand new] and it does improve on the original and even remastered Capitol RBCDs ..... if you can find one cheap, buy it. Although NOT perfect ...it's my go to version, Markie!

Moon looks like such a well behaved young man here..............avec pinky ring too. Took wrong turn onto Naughty Avenue at some point
NAUGHTY BEHAVIOR is an understatement when you read of his misadventures via this Wikipedia blurb:

Have now moved on to THE WHO LIVE AT THE CIVIC AUDITORIUM SAN FRANCISCO December 1971 ....another 2 RBCD LIVE set included with the Lighthouse package. Same sensational sonics.

I also strongly recommend JVC CD of The Joker. It is the best mastered 2ch version. Beats 2 ch LP and Capitol CD.
