Hi Murph,
Thanks for the tip, which reminded me immediately of another concert that the Edmonton Symphony recorded years ago with Procul Harem (huge hit in my era: "Whiter Shade of Pale"). It's a live album--I have it on vinyl--and quite well recorded, if memory serves.
I hate generalizing about rock (I still do, of course) because there are so many exceptions in my listening history. I seem to recall liking Tom Cochrane and colleagues. It's just that in recent decades, I've moved more and more away from lots of rock and pop music. I still use Brothers in Arms (Dire Straits) for listening tests sometimes because it's so well recorded and has excellent deep bass and a few other albums that have well recorded vocals that aren't sibilant.
Regards,
Alan
