Elton John "Don't Shoot Me..." box??

[J. PUPSTER]

[Edit: Well, it's a good excuse for me to start messing with this album in DeMix Pro.]

I'd work on it with ya ar, but we'd forever be arguing over how loud the rears should be

2 cd reissue.... Why bother?

 

[humprof]

Over on that SHF thread, the OP is now saying the proposed Don’t Shoot Me box has been scrapped by UMG in favor of a 2CD reissue similar to Honky Chateau 50th.

Ugh. Just shoot me.

 

[SHB]

Maybe Paul at SDE could issue a Blu ray with the multi channel mix of it. That would be cool.

 

[himey]

the multi channel mix of it

A Blu-ray with a new Atmos mix, unreleased 5.1, and a great stereo track, could be his biggest seller.

"Crocodile Rock" and "Daniel" are on Diamonds, but - according to that insider at SHF - Penny has completed an Atmos mix of the entire Don't Shoot Me album.

Hopefully it randomly pops up on Tidal and/or a Blu-ray becomes available.

At least do the damn physical surround blu ray for us folks that live in the sticks. You know, us non-peoply types. Would sell $$ just fine! Internet speeds/bandwidth is not a priority here. And we don't see the internet improving out here at all anytime soon. But....we would live ~nowhere~ else regardless..

AR now means "Aggressive Rears." Come on, Pups. Give me a big . It took me over 40 hours to come up with this retort.

Actually, I was listening to one of the Elton John 5.1's yesterday. The the rears on those mixes are very aggressive.

Don't......go.....there.... lmfao

Pups, I'm ecstatic that you referenced that thread because it has the famous @marpow quote that I've been trying to find for a few years now. Post #17 per marpow:


How do you like surround mixes to sound?

Really fucking good. Is that an appropriate answer? Because everybody posted before me basically nailed the question with there (sic) answers.

I saw Aggressive Rears at CBGB once. I think they opened for Mink DeVille.

So Caribou is now getting the 2 LP colored vinyl Record Store Day treatment. If things follow suit from last year's Don't Shoot Me RSD release, we shouldn't hold our breath for the unreleased 5.1 being paroled from the Universal vault.


Caribou, Elton John’s fourth album to claim the top spot on the charts in the US and his third in the UK, showcases hits like “Don’t Let The Sun Go Down On Me” and “The Bitch Is Back.” In honor of the 50th anniversary of its release, a Record Store Day release awaits enthusiasts: a vivid double blue-sky-vinyl edition, with LP2 housing session demos and rarities.
