Morph The Cat : Revisited

I recently purchased the Donald Fagan LP Morph the Cat. Man, I believe this is the best sounding rock LP i have ever purchased (at least one of the best). I saw a post a while back in which some posters felt that the LP was a disappointment in that it had no top end to it, and that it was bass heavy. I found that with a small VTA adjustment, the top end sparkles without losing the tight, deep bass. I love every song on this LP. It is much better IMO than the recent Steely Dan LP's. Anyone else have any thoughts on the sound of this LP?

I own the DVD-A, so I can't comment directly on the LP, but I believe the DVD-A is outstanding. I'm wondering of you also own "The Nightfly" (which I also own on DVD-A), and if so how you believe the two compare?

No, I do not own Nightfly. Is the music as good as Morph the Cat?

I prefer the music on "The Nightfly" to "Morph the Cat". While I like "Morph the Cat", I lose interest quickly, and I don't have this issue with "The Nightfly".

I was listening today to the redbook version of Morph played back on my 1992 Sony ES changer feeding a $500 Paradisea DAC. Outstanding, and anything but flat and lifeless.

Still, the DVD-A beats the redbook version hands down.
