    MQA-CD plays back on all CD players. When a conventional CD player is connected to an MQA-enabled device, the CD will reveal the original master quality.

    MQA (Master Quality Authenticated) is an award-winning British technology that reveals every detail of the original master recording.

    Regular CD Player
    As a result of the MQA encoding process, MQA-CDs benefit from increased timing precision and de- blurring when played on any device. (This playback mode is called “Legacy” and is one of the key features of MQA, where all listeners will hear audio – irrespective of the playback decoder functionality).

    MQA-Enabled CD Player
    These CD players can recognise an MQA-CD. The built-in MQA decoder will automatically restore the high-resolution signal heard in the studio and confirm it, using the authentication signatures.
    MQA-enabled CD players include Oppo UDP-205, Esoteric Grandioso K1x, Triode TRV-CD65E and Meridian 808v6 with more being released to market each quarter.

    MQA-CD ripping
    Consumers may want to rip MQA-CDs for playback on a range of devices. As described in section 7.2.3, we recommend using the MQA Tag Restorer application to restore the metadata tags required by some MQA-enabled devices.
    The application can be downloaded free here - www.mqa.co.uk/tag435sdf43te

about

LOST ALONG THE WAY - A co-write with Alana Amram, who, by the power of her sheer creativity, dragged this semi-biographical story out of me. It’s loosely based on breaking down in my Datsun 240z on Pacific Coast Highway very late at night near El Capitan State Beach. Initial tracking was done in New York City by Dave Lindsay at Country Club Studios. Later, extensive overdubs and mixing was done at my Mountain Sounds Recorders. Alana played the great reverbed Wurlizer piano parts in NYC. I worked with Will Scott to get the dead 70’s pop ballad style drums with big fills. Our reference points were Nigel Olsson drumming with Elton John, and the Ken Scott engineered Supertramp albums.

lyrics

LOST ALONG THE WAY
Who would stop here at this hour
Morning sky is cold and gray
Barely see the lighthouse tower
I got lost along the way

I’ve done this drive a hundred times
Don’t recognize the highway signs, I’m stranded
Old mission empty for morning prayer
No one can hear me crying out here, abandoned

Who would stop here at this hour
Morning sky is cold and gray
Barely see the lighthouse tower
I got lost along the way

I followed this path down to the beach
Fog funneled through the cypress trees
White washed walls beg for moonlight
Sunrise burn off this endless night

Darkest mist moves like a river
Before the dawn your hands will shiver
Darkest mist rolls back to the ocean
As the dawn shows it’s devotion
