Your favourite 2017 album.?

Anyone listened to Marty Stuart's "Way Out West"? I've heard the title track and really liked it. From what I've read, seems like an interesting album. It's on my wish list......

dlcockrum, it is indeed a shame when good music is available only in bad sound. One quality singer whose music is consistently poorly recorded is Delbert McClinton. So bad as to be unlistenable, even for me!

@dlcockrum   Did some critical listening of Close Ties and Migration Blues.

I agree with your observations regarding the recording values for Close Ties. On point!

Just listened to the CD of "A Deeper Understanding", newly released by "The War On Drugs", and this is one impressive production---lush and expansive soundstage with good depth.  If you like "Slave Ambient" and "Living In the Dream", this one is right up there, and a sonic surprise.    

Marty Stuart "Way out West" is excellent.  Produced by Mike Campbell of the TP & Heartbreakers.  I hear a lot of the Byrds influence, great pickin.   Never been much of Marty Stuart fan either.
