Listening now to this stereo/mono CD.

Alan Parsons “I-Robot” don’t have the SACD but would make a trade for it…. Or is it a DVD-A

Mobile Fidelity has released I Robot on SACD. I haven't heard it.

Classic Records also issued the album as a stereo-only DVD-A. It sounds fantastic. Here's the Discogs listing.

Thanks for the heads up….just picked up a BRAND NEW unopened copy of the Mobile Fidelity version on SACD for $35 including shipping

Just out of curiosity does anyone here have both? Which one sounds better?

I enjoy them both, but I would definitely give the edge to the DVD-A.

Also, the DVD-A of Turn Of A Friendly Card is my favorite pressing on a shiny silver disc. I hope I live long enough to hear ...Friendly Card in 5.1.

Scheduled to land in my mailbox this weekend!

Although I didn't pop for the SACD of I Robot, I bought LP, 1/2 speed LP, MoFi Silver CD, DVD-A and 2 CD expanded. DVD-A definitely the best of those.

this one. Very Interesting !!! Very enjoyable. Lost tracks, creativity in the studio, stepping outside of their 'norm'

Just wish they’d do their 1st album in ATMOS it’s quite worthy of it

Interesting question. I’ve done an Eye In The Sky comparison but not one with I Robot. I have the Reference Recordings DVD, the MoFi SACD and the Acoustic Sounds DSD download.

Groovie Goolies - Groovie Goolies

Cheesy stuff for sure but this re-issue from Real Gone Music is nicely done.
Informative liner notes, great mastering by Vic Anesini.
The music is dumb but still a fun listen.

 

[The Rang]

Horace Silver - The Cape Verdean Blues

The Audio Wave XRCDs are a joy.
This one is no exception, the track African Queen is a standout

Sometime this weekend I am going to start an "All Things MQA" thread but for now I stumbled onto these brand new MQA releases that some may be interested in?

Tones On Tail – Night Music

"The band was made up of several former Bauhaus members who went on to form Love and Rockets.
Dark as Bauhaus, maybe darker. "Burning Skies," and "The Movement of Fear" are absolute classic '80s goth songs. They also get a bit experimental, even attempting a little techno"

 

[cbmmm3]

Yum to both selections

1995 remastered version.
