Sid Smith also confirmed that the 5.1 surround audio options on the DVD are DTS 96/24 and Dolby AC3, so thankfully, we at least have a DTS option!

Sigh... I've been waiting so long for this. Paying for unwanted vinyl while the precious 5.1 is slipped into a cut in the cardboard was not what I imagined though.
I will probably go for it but I'll be one of those counting on my QQ buds for a 5.1 review and clues for the best prices. <3

I'm like you on this one vinyl in and I'm out.
I don't need vinyl CD and DVD and vinyl should not be mixed

The best price so far I've found is $66.42 from US ImportCD but I'm in agreement: Just want the 5.1 and again, it's lossy DTS 5.1 [the Stereo remix on the DVD~V is LOSSLESS 96/24......does that make sense????]

IMO, We wouldn't be so keen to get the 5.1 if we didn't already own the vinyl.

Don't own it already just don't want the vinyl so will not buy Squire Estate looses out on a sale because of a stupid decision.

Happy for the fans of the album but feel sure that there will be many who pass either because they only want the vinyl or the 5.1 but not both

Soooo. now that I can slowly afford this..is the Import CDs offer the best???

Yep, Kap, looks like Import CD has the best deal.

I'll pass on this for now hoping that down the road it'll come WAY down in price as I really don't want the vinyl.

Would be marvelous if this had a stand alone BD~A release.......but doubtful on that front. They'd sure sell a helluva lot more.

Well, then, I'll wait for the price to come down then!
Yeah, I know...what's the use of the vinyl??? We WANT the MCH BECAUSE we have the vinyl!!!!

See details below: Chris Squire: Fish Out Of Water, Blu Ray High Resolution Edition - Cherry Red Records

NEW STAND-ALONE REGION FREE BLU RAY EDITION OF YES FOUNDER CHRIS SQUIRE’S CLASSIC 1975 SOLO ALBUM

WITH NEW 96 KHZ / 24-BIT 5.1 SURROUND & STEREO MIXES FROM THE MULTI-TRACK MASTER TAPES BY JAKKO JAKSZYK & THE ORIGINAL STEREO MIX

WITH BONUS VISUAL MATERIAL OF THE “FISH OUT OF WATER” PROMO FILMS & A 2006 AUDIO COMMENTARY BY CHRIS SQUIRE

A BOOKLET WITH ESSAY BY SID SMITH FEATURING EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEWS WITH BILL BRUFORD, PATRICK MORAZ & GREGG JACKMAN

Esoteric Recordings are proud to announce the release of a new Blu ray edition of Yes founder CHRIS SQUIRE’s legendary 1975 solo album FISH OUT OF WATER. Recorded in the late Spring and Summer of 1975 whilst Yes was on hiatus as members recorded their respective solo albums, FISH OUT OF WATER was a breath-taking work, and equal in standard to any Yes album in terms of sheer invention and creativity. The album was essentially a collaboration between Chris Squire and his friend Andrew Pryce Jackman, a gifted arranger who had been a member of The Syn, Squire’s pre-Yes group.



The sessions saw contributions from former Yes drummer BILL BRUFORD, Yes keyboard player PATRICK MORAZ and noted musicians MEL COLLINS and JIMMY HASTINGS. Released in November 1975, FISH OUT OF WATER was a Top 30 chart hit in the UK and made the US Billboard Top 75 album chart, going on to sell nearly 500,000 copies worldwide.



This Blu ray edition features stunning 5.1 Surround Sound and new stereo mixes of the album by JAKKO JAKSZYK. The disc also includes the bonus features of the FISH OUT OF WATER promotional film (featuring the songs ‘Hold Out Your Hand’ and ‘You By My Side’), along with a 2006 audio commentary by Chris Squire. Finally, the set also contains a 36-page book with an essay by Sid Smith featuring exclusive interviews with BILL BRUFORD, PATRICK MORAZ, GREGG JACKMAN and JAKKO JAKSZYK. This Esoteric Recordings Blu ray edition is a fitting tribute to the artistry of Chris and his collaborator, Andrew Pryce Jackman.

Holy Shi! That is great news! I have been looking at that box set recently lamenting all the stuff it contains I do not need. This I will order.

*EDIT*
Preordered, thanks for the heads up. Added the on sale 1984 by Anthony Phillips also

 

[Neil Palfreyman]

Pre Ordered!

 

[JediJoker]

Perhaps this is in response to good sales of the standalone Ammonia Avenue Blu-ray?
