All tracks mastered from the original direct to DSD or analogue to DSD masters! Featuring an Unreleased Bonus track from Skye and Luqman Hamza, both Never-Before-Released on SACD!

After the successes of GRVSAM1036 True Audiophile/The Best Of Groove Note Volume 1 and GRVSAM1045 True Audiophile/The Best Of Groove Note Volume 2, Groove Note presents another audiophile collection of their talented artists on hybrid SACD! Just like before, Volume 2 features some of the best cuts from a world renowned music label, Groove Note!

The album highlights include: The intimate, delicate, sweet and tender voice of Jacintha; Roy Gaines, the greatest living blues guitarist that you probably don't know anything about, a sizzling blues guitarist with one of the most magnificent blues voices around; Eden Atwood, who has a voice that is many things - seductive, plaintive, sensitive, gifted with perfect intonation and phrasing, and entertaining; Currently touring as the guitarist for Diana Krall, Anthony Wilson is one of the most brilliant musicians working in the US jazz scene today; Bill Cunliffe is a leading West Coast jazz pianist with several albums to his credit; With a sensual and seductive voice right out of the '40s or '50s, Luqman Hamza (pronounced Luke-mahn Hahm-za) is a real discovery; And rounding out this already impressive list, tenor saxophonist extraordinaire Bennie Wallace!
