Catherine Russell - album - 'Alone Together'

For March, 2019, We will look at at new release from Catherine Russell.  She is a very talented singer who has presented an album that is arranged and played like it came out of the 20s, except with top-notch quality of recording.  The album is titled 'Alone Together'.   The music is pure American Jazz and I chose the song 'He May Be Your Dog, But He's Wearing My Collar'. 

Here are the numbers...

LKFS/LUFS                      -12.4 dB
Clipped Samples Left       0
Clipped Samples Right     0
DC Offset                       -.007%, -008%
Dynamic Range              6.7 dB
RMS Level Left              -12.71 dB
RMS Level Right            -11.99 dB


The sound is clean, the eq is ok, if not perfect.  I am inclined to to not be critical because the music is so good and it is a refreshing change from the crap that I usually look at.  This is great music, and would be a great addition to any music collection.
The only issue is that it needs a dB or so less between 2 and 4 kHz.  Again, it is not going to keep anyone from enjoying this fine music.
The LUFS of -12.4 dB is a pretty good compromise between the ideal of -16 dB and the current crop of overcompressed music at -8 dB.
There are no clipped samples  (!) and the DC offset is -.007%, -.008%.
The dynamic range is good at 6.7 dB, and it would have been even better if the level was -16 dB.
The left-right difference is .72 dB, which is within a dB and not a problem with this style of music.
