Basia; Superhits. Via Tidal
My definition is "sophistipop": Basia sang with Matt Bianco for a while in the 80s, then went her own way. Soul, pop, jazz, all mixed together, with a couple of instantly recognisable hits. Great voice and vocal arrangements, probably deserves the hi-res treatment.

I am listening to my FM tuner on BBC radio 3, a valve amplifier and my Tune Audio Anima horns. Anacronisic!
Sounds lovely and the colouration is only noticeable on speech.

It was the first music I listened to on my Silver Phantoms one year ago, then it was the first I tried two days ago when I inaugurated my 2 Gold. Listening to "Because" a cappella remix/remastered version is really impressive ! The whole album sounds great, despite the presence of some early lowest recordings songs ("I want To Hold Your Hand").
