Another winner from @GOS sounding very good indeed through the ol' Surround Master!

Enjoyed revisiting these over the weekend. IIRC, The Animals hybrid is the first time that the original U.S. hit 45 single version of "We Gotta Get Out Of This Place" made it to digital. Prior to this release, pretty sure Eric's alternate UK lead was always used.
"In search of the..." missing multitracks. Still a great listen in SACD stereo!

Decent album that picks up steam as it goes. Like many piano driven albums it can sound a bit harsh when he pounds the keys.

Better than Workingman’s Dead, IMHO, though I wish they’d use less harmony vocals.
I like the band and good as this album is, and not taking anything away from them, I must admit that as a whole I really don’t “get” why the Dead are so revered.

Yes, this release is aimed at the quad listener but I played it in stereo hence I’m in this thread.
One of the great albums, ever.
Definitely a different sound presentation than I’m used to but it sounds excellent here.
My only comparisons are the original MFSL Gold CD (and I’ve heard the more recent MoFi SACD). The balance is better, I think, than the bass heavy gold CD.
Was sceptical of the 7” packaging but it’s nice, quality and detailed.
Another one of those "blink and you missed it" hybrid releases. Superb sound quality and it's easily the best version I've ever heard of Todd's magnum opus classic!

I should have picked this one up! My favorite TR. I was, and still am hoping for a surround release!
I am trying to relax, I seem to relax better in stereo, less to listen to.

Probably one of my top 5 albums (and album covers), period.
Sounds great in stereo (will try the quad at a later date) though the left side is noticeably louder, wish I had a balance control.

Beautiful album, I could play Song of the Wind forever.
Been thinking about the Japan version, and though I like the packaging, I don’t really care about the quad. Has anyone compared the two channel version on that set to this MoFi?

Great album. Sound is good though the cymbals/brushes sound kinda nasty in places on this AP SACD. Will compare it to my DCC gold one of these days.
**Edit: a quick stroll through the DCC tells me that though the soundstage appears a bit smaller, overall I prefer it to the SACD. Smoother/warmer and the still present rough edges are not so harsh
