Batch #2 of Rhino Atmos Blu-Rays coming August 2024!

whaddya gonna put in the heights or the sides?

Well, I guess I'm essentially saying, if minimally, these 2 titles are a superb 5.1 (you can call it Atmos all you like, just release a high quality surround)

I mean, Back In Black surely has multiple tracks with back vocals, bass, lead guitar lead vocals, drums.

I think the mix approach SW established for these older stripped-down titles like Who’s Next or Moondance could work for AC/DC.

Drums & bass upfront, lead vocal in the center channel, and rhythm guitars partially/entirely in the sides. Then you have the rears and heights opened up for additional elements like solos, backing vocals, percussion, reverb returns, and other effects (I know I’d want the bells in “Hells Bells” to come from the height speakers).

Add that with the fact that we've never had any surround version of this monster selling title. Bring on an Atmos and I bet it would sell bigtime.

I can’t decide which of the first two I love more.

Not sure why no one is mentioning Grateful Dead. I would not be surprised if physical releases of Steven Wilson's Atmos mixes and the older 5.1 mixes are put on Blu Rays for this Atmos program. (Actually, I'd be a little surprised if they aren't!)

For my money, the best first two albums by any artist. Ever.

Yeah, I know it CAN be done. And I’m sure it’d be fine. And I’d buy it. And enjoy it.

just not an album that’s high on my “I want this one is surround!” list

I've bought all the Quadio batches thus far. I think I may be a little more circumspect going forward. Now more Rhino Atmos releases...I'm probably in for.

Ohhh God... yes, PLEASE??? The Steven Wilson mix appears to have been done nearly two years ago, and with the 45th anniversary of the album already passed (and the 50th anniversary not until 2028), this mix desperately needs an outlet.

Plus, the album sold six million copies in the US, so it has the multi-platinum credentials of the first batch.

Brings up the fact that I'd kill for the surround mix of Embryonic we deserved that didn't happen. I need Embryonic in surround!

Wilson did a mix???? I didn’t know that. FFS! Let it loose!!
