Alan Parson’s “Ammonia Avenue” on Blu-Ray Audio Disc

[GOS]

Well, Import CDs hasn't sent me a shipping notification yet, but they have charged my credit card. I'm guessing that's a good sign.

Wow, OK. Yes, I'd say a good sign. So, maybe mine will show up after all.

Label created, but not handed over to USPS yet.

And I suppose the postman collided with the singing teapot and Ammonia Avenue ended up in the rose bush......yada yada

And the pig stopped by because he heard the music and felt like JAMMIN'

At least its not a pig's ear of a release, that would take the bacon, but must trot along and put my snout into a trough!

But lest we forget, Duncan .... A Rose by any other name would smell as sweet [the bard himself, Billy Shakespeare]

And Ammonia Avenue is only a prelude to Alan's next much anticipated remix I ROBOT!

Let 'er rip, Ethel

Same here. Actually, they charged my credit card when I ordered it back in Jan.

 

[knifeman]

I take that back. Mine's on it's way.

Ordered mine from ImportCDs also. Can't tell if it shipped or not. Their web page does leave something to be desired as far as info goes.
Going into my account: I see no tracking info so I guess it hasn't shipped yet. I wonder what the criteria is for who gets what in what order? I ordered in late Dec. 2019...

I also preordered from Import CDs and I received my shipping confirmation on March 31st. I did not pay for fast shipping so they claim I will see it in 8 to 15 days. I will try to be patient considering the pandemic. There will be some nail biting as I wait though.

Received my copy yesterday , the mix sounds great and the menu is a nice touch , you also get video's for 2 tracks - looking forward to blasting out again later

Mine shows shipped from ImportCD last night. Only, I got 2 emails......with different order numbers. Went back to Import...and um.....I guess I ordered it back in January as part of another order. Forgot about that one.....so I guess I'm getting 2 copies.

Really impressive surround sound mix. I've always liked the album but this takes it to another level.

Quick question for those of you who already have the Blu-Ray:
Are the two music videos in 5.1 as well or just in stereo?

Thanks!

Just stereo sadly

Just stereo sadly

Hmm wonder why they don’t often pair those up; different mixes and lengths perhaps, or just time and money?

Has anybody here ordered the disc from Cherry Red and have received shipping confirmation? I pre-ordered and the status of my order is still “pending”

I don't know about the single disc release but I received my box set from Cherry Red a week and a half ago.

 

[BPWingN]

Just ordered from Canadian store on Amazon.
Estimated arrival date..April 28-May 20!

Oh well...I will have forgotten about it, and will recieved a nice surprise!

Are some of you getting the deluxe set (BD, CD, LP) and is it worth it? ImportCD is out of stock on the 5.1 BD and looks like Amazon is handling only the box set. So wondering if the box set is worth the money or just wait for more BD's to come in.

The boxset on Amazon ships from and is sold by importcds, doesn't say how many are available but does say in stock.
I am still waiting for the standalone Blu-ray from Cherry Red.

I mentioned this on "Life in Surround" on Facebook which is BTW my favorite YouTube Channel!
I played Ammonia Avenue twice yesterday evening. I've always liked this recording, but now just love it. That happens a lot of with me with various albums. It's between OK and very good but the surround experience gives a new appreciation to the artistry and craft of the recording while isolating nuances. Alan Parsons obviously is an excellent mixer. Not many if any (Steven Wilson is another) that can both engineer AND create great music.
