Thirty years of music with the best sound available


This very special SACD holds some of the best highlights from Jan-Eric's career with Opus 3. It stretches from 1976 up to 2006. The story in the booklet is told by Matthew Harrison, a long time friend and associate. There is complete information on every song in the enclosed booklet and also information of recording equipment used by Opus3. Thirty years of hard work for your ears only.

All you have to do is to put the disc in your CD-player, close your eyes and let the walls of the listening room disappear while you are transported to your own personal heaven.

    Unbelievable

    Posted by Karen St Hilaire on 23rd Nov 2021

    This is one piece of music that will go down in time as the best collection of the masters in music of our time! Gotta get it! I wish I had been there. For instance, Lou Reed isn't even with us anymore. Some of the Artists won't even be performing again. What a collection. By the way, Bob Dylan has PRODUCED (not written) over 550 songs and has a mass of work in Art & poetry also. He's the man!
