The Diamonds blu-ray contains 51 tracks in hi-res stereo (the same track listing as on the deluxe 3CD set) with 48 of those songs mixed in immersive Dolby Atmos by Greg Penny.

Audio streams summary:

• Dolby Atmos (48 tracks) 48 kHz / 24 bit

! Heavenly! Penny's mixing for Elton is sublime on the 5.1s, and I expect no less here in Atmos.

 

[The Rang]

Though it seems oddly redundant, probably because I have everything here on multiple releases some of it hi-rez, being a massive Elton fan since the beginning, I’ll end dither for a few days then buy this just before the window closes.
The same stereo mastering as the original CD I presume?

 

[uffeolby]

Wow, just wow!

 

[Marplot]

Well this is a surprise. Now if only the release rate allowed buying more than 1 new title per window.

 

[djstephan]

Wow, just wow!

I’ll second that with yes oh yes !!

this is a big one.

Congratulations @PaulatSDE for landing a huge title. Congratulations to me for ordering a copy.
I fought off the urge to buy 2, seems everyone would probably want a copy. So, 1 copy it is.

Hopefully SDE will revert back to the transparent HFPA blu-ray disc cases instead of those ugly blue blu-ray disc cases that were with #28.

the picture indicates that it is the HFPA case.

In!

 

[SeeMoreDigital]

the picture indicates that it is the HFPA case.

The picture for #28 (Tears for Fears, Songs for a Nervous Planet) indicated it was in a transparent HFPA case but when the disc arrived the case was blue. I swapped it with #13A (Duran Duran, Danse Macabre De Luxe) as at contains videos!

 

[dobyblue]

This is massive, I really like the surround mix but the fidelity just isn't there - problem solved! Well done, Paul!

So you're undecided about buying this one?!

 

[Bobby Martini]

Very excited about this. I'd love more greatest hits albums released on blu ray......ideally a Stephen W Tayler 5.1 mix of Abba Gold & More Gold.....can you imagine

 

[MrSmithers]

Great release, ordered like a rocket (man)! That’ll be nice for Chrimbo!

 

[Rhinojack]

This looks like our only chance to hear a couple of tunes in a Greg Penny surround format that were never released (and we still want them) as SACD 5.0. "Don't Shoot Me...", "Caribou" "Rock of the Westies" and "Blue Moves".
