Anthony Phillips "Sides" 3-CD/1-DVD Deluxe Edition Coming Soon

[rtbluray]

We don't even have "Wise After the Event" yet, and already there's an amazon.co.uk listing for yet ANOTHER Anthony Phillips deluxe edition, this time for his 1979 album "Sides". Release is currently set for April 15th of this year. No definitive news yet on a 5.1 surround mix, but it does say DVD, and so I think it's somewhat safe to say that this one will also follow the trend currently set by "The Geese & The Ghost" and "Wise After The Event".

I thought I'd e-mail Cherry Red/Esoteric and ask whether the DVD contains a 5.1 mix - I'll post what comes back.

Same price for me - I pre-ordered as well. I knew I couldn't stop myself....

It's not Steven Wilson who remixed this one. It should be the same guys who remixed "The Geese & The Ghost" into surround last year, and I'm pretty sure they are also the ones who should be behind the upcoming reissue of "Wise After the Event". That being said, if these two upcoming surround releases are anything like "The Geese & The Ghost", then they will definitely be worth having!

I kinda thought that was the case...I'll have to think about this one..unlike most on the forum..much of the progressive music isn't my cup of tea..BUT...the Steven Wilson mixes are just so good they are worth the purchase..I'll listen to some music samples first before I make the decision...

For those that have Spotify (or another streaming service), there's tracks from both albums ("Wise After the Event" and "Sides") that can be listened to as part of the compilation "Harvest of the Heart", so that's an excellent way to check out songs from both albums before purchasing.

Here's a packshot of the "Sides" deluxe edition that will be released in April:

Just got an email this morning from Burning Shed that my copy of "Sides" is on its way, so hopefully it should be here next week. Can't wait to hear it!

Hmmm - I didn't get an email.... Oops, or maybe I ordered from Amazon UK?? See? I can't remember...

Maybe it's time to trawl through those email receipts again…

I'm looking forward to the GOS "What Are You Waiting On" post, as it'll probably have some items listed twice @:. Has your plant "testing" in Argentina made you forgetful!

My order for this is with Amazon UK, so hopefully early next week. Amazon UK is getting a bit inconsistent, sometimes items come in the normal post and a Friday release can get to me Tuesday/Wednesday the following week. Whereas other times items are sent using Amazon's own (tracked) delivery and a Friday release can get to me as early as Saturday or even Sunday.

The last thing that I got from Amazon was the new Joe Bonamassa cd and I was really annoyed by that delivery. I pre ordered it 2 months ago, and it arrived Wednesday after the Friday release. However a friend from work also ordered it from Amazon UK, but only a week before release, and his arrived on the Saturday, one day after the release day

OK, yeah....I ordered from Amazon UK.
And yes, it's very possible that Argentina trip made me forgetful.....so glad to be home!

I ordered my copy direct from Cherry Red, but no e-mail yet and I've found the same with amazon, I stopped using Prime as the next day delivery was 3+ days, and now the 'free' delivery can take a week as they don't ship quickly

I listened to "Sides" about ten times now.
This is a superb release. The surround mix is wonderful and I like the songs very much.

The best 5.1 release so far this year!

Agreed, I've listened to it lots too. The surround mix is demo quality, absolutely superb. And I love the songs as well!
