change is possible

feeling like a bit of jazz vocals, i tried to play this show by diana krall (i’d recently downloaded a video of a show by her, so ‘more of the same’ was the watchword of the day).

but this wouldn’t play in foobar2000.  so i had to decode the flacs back to wav (and then re-encode them into flacs again, though i suppose i didn’t have to do that).  then it played fine, so these are the re-encoded flacs.

interestingly, the flac fingerprint files (ffp) on the new flac’s were the same as the old — that makes sense, the ffp’s are on the underlying music not on the files themselves, but i’d never really thought about that.  (of course, i had to make a new md5 file.)

it’s a nice show.  so is the one from the day before (both were uploaded by scooter123).  both shows have almost exactly the same setlist, each with 1 different song (the 7th song, in both shows), so i’m only uploading this one.

scooter123’s comments:
diana krall needs no introduction. this concert was the second of a two night stand at the historic hollywood bowl, and as a special bonus, with the los angeles philharmonic orchestra. this was from fob dfc, so its a slightly nicer pull than the previous night which i upped last week. i was fearing that the orchestra would get in the way, but they complemented her very nicely. some wind and cricket noise affects what would otherwise be a perfect recording. most of you guys probably don’t like classical, but i through in the overature as track 00, so delete it if you like.
