Notes:
--20210409--
First listen.
First five tracks. Intuitively (no direct comparisons), her voice seems softer, rounder, and more even. Those might not be the right words, and the similarity between old and new versions feels high, but a generally more pleasant sound in the new version.

Completed the album.

Second listen.

Summary:
Overall, the differences between the original tracks and new tracks are generally subtle. But the improvements are such that I would personally prefer listening to the new version.

Overall Rating: 5.0/5

I suppose even if for some reason I liked the original tracks more, I should still only listen to the new recordings in support of the artist.
