Not sure thats correct.... based on the information on the Pure Audio site...
sa-cd.net are going to wait to get definitive info before they update the page (if needed).

"Thanks for the update; I have to treat the submission info as genuine until someone who owns it can show otherwise, so I'll leave it "as is" for the moment."


Not sue I would take a univesal sit that seriously given they had a Nick Drake HFPA disc with 5.1 Upf for months before the project was cancelled
 
I just noticed over at SA-CD.net that the Genesis Blu-ray audio releases of "Trespass" & "Foxtrot" are down as Stereo only, I hope not!

Black Sabbath's "13" is still down a Multi-channel - we'll see.

Oh gawd.. :mad:@: can you imagine the uproar if Universal make these Genesis BDA's Stereo only after the likes of Diana Krall & Layla came out on HFPA without their 5.1 mixes!? :yikes

I have highlighted to sa-cd.net that the Black sabbath is highly unlikely to be 5.1 - the response wa s - they'll leave it as-is and wait and see when it comes out. :mad:@:
 
The Black Sabbath 13 in 5.1 comes from info on one of the European Universal sites. It's not out of the realm of possibility, I suppose - what will be more interesting is if the mastering is the DR5 one from the CD, or the DR10 one from the vinyl. Expecting the former but hoping for the latter..
 
Yeah, I think the reason there is some hope is that the red audio group on HFPA BluRays is usually used for 5.1 tracks. So it's obviously not guaranteed by any means, but not discounted either.
 
Coming to HFPA Blu-ray end of May (stereo only I'm guessing) Gregory Porter's "Liquid Spirit"..

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QR7ZLYA/ (RUSH 'A Farewell to Kings', "Currently Unavailable")
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QHPSS9W/ (Simple Minds 'Sparkle in the Rain', only available from Third party sellers)
http://www.amazon.com/Slippery-When-Wet-Blu-ray-Audio/dp/B00RXPTG14/ (Bon Jovi 'Slippery When Wet', "Currently Unavailable")

"Let's Get It On" and "Pet Sounds" are still shown as available for preorder however.

Anyone know what's going on?

Bon Jovi was originally scheduled for Feb 17th...now listed as April 7th here

Simple Minds is available here

Rush has a 4/20/15 date HERE

It could be just an amazon problem..
 
Now if they would simply disclose if they are multi channel or not.....

Simple Minds and "A Farewell to Kings" definitely are, and I think there's at least a 73% chance the same can be said for Bon Jovi and Marvin Gaye, cause after all surround mixes of these albums have already been released, so nothing new here under the sun.

The other four discs towards the top will most likely be stereo only.

Would be nice if the sellers would provide that information, it really pisses me of that you can't find that information on the sellers website. :howl
