Batch #3 of Rhino Atmos Blu-Rays coming TBD

[SHB]

I'm hoping for the Rush albums that received the Atmos treatment not long ago. I would love to have a stand alone Blu Ray of the self-titled debut.

Any other clues, e.g.:

• Another batch of 4?
• Projected release date?
• Specific label(s)--WB, Elektra, Atlantic, etc.?
• Any titles that previously had a 4.0 or 5.1 mix?
• Any titles that already have a streaming Atmos mix?
• Any titles that were planned but pulled b/c they'll be part of a future box set?

Faith No More - Epic

Only three songs by Faith No More are streaming in Atmos ("Epic,” "Easy,” and “Midlife Crisis”).

I'd like another box set of Joni Mitchell, following on from The Asylum Albums (1972-1975) Quadio set, i.e. quadios of the four recently re-released CDs of Hejira, Don Juan's Reckless Daughter, Mingus, and Shadows and Light.

Yep. Rhino distributes the "Atlantic years:"

• Presto*
• Roll The Bones*
• Counterparts
• Test For Echo
• Vapor Trails
• Feedback
• Snakes & Arrows^

The entire pre-'89 catalogue is distributed by Universal, while Clockwork Angels is on Roadrunner. In any case, Rush's own label Anthem seems to fairly tightly control what gets released, so I don't see Rhino getting a crack at any Atmos mixes, even if they do get done.

...who has said he would like the opportunity to remix them (I bring this up frequently in the hopes I can manifest it into existence )

Do we have a rough date in mind for when these will go up? Wanna order some of those new Quadios but might as well wait to save on shipping…

I'd definitely like to have a better 5.1 (with Atmos now) release of Snakes & Arrows as opposed to that MVI disc release that came out however long ago. To me, on my system, it sounds horrible. What bothers me mostly is just the sonic quality of it, but I love the album...

Given how many Atmos mixes Chycki has cranked out for Rush in the past few years, and his love for the band, I think it's highly likely he would revisit Snakes & Arrows. His stereo mix, as mastered by Sean Magee for vinyl and hi-res (still unreleased except via download code included with the vinyl, argh!), sounds great. I think there's the potential for a much better-sounding surround/immersive mix.

Just as a side note, a question for Mr. Woolard (Foraging Rhino), is it true that Elliot Scheiner did a 5.1 of The Cars debut album that has been shelved since about 2003? Very sorry if you've had this question a million times...
