| Component | Meaning | Implication | |-----------|---------|--------------| | | Artist | Solo career (post-Simon & Garfunkel, though the 1965 start date suggests inclusion of early S&G) | | Discography 1965-2023 | Time span | From his first album with Garfunkel ( Wednesday Morning, 3 AM , 1964? Note: 1965 is likely referencing the start of their major releases or his first solo single ) through his final album Seven Psalms (2023) | | FLAC | Format | Free Lossless Audio Codec – ensures no generation loss from CD or high-res sources | | 88 | Sample rate (kHz) | 88.2 kHz – a high-resolution audio sample rate, exactly double the CD standard of 44.1 kHz. Often used for audiophile rips or HDtracks downloads | | Better | Quality indicator | Likely means: "better than standard CD quality" (16-bit/44.1 kHz) – so 24-bit/88.2 kHz or better encoding, or superior mastering (e.g., Mobile Fidelity, Analogue Productions) |
