Listening to now (In Surround!) - Volume 1

[colsky]

Are the interview segments linked to chapter stops....in other words can you just skip past the inteviews between songs by going to the next chapter....I hate when they sandwich them between songs...it disrupts the flow of the music....however if it's set up with chapter stops that you can skip the interviews without missing any music it's ok... that's what stopped me from ordering this one....I wasn't sure...

They seem to be at the end of songs, so as soon as the interview begins you can press next to go to the next song.

Genesis - Three Sides Live, the new blu ray version. I am pleasantly surprised with this, especially as I still have a Genesis bad taste in my mouth after the recent tv documentary.

The sound is 5.1 DTS-HD master audio, and it has discrete music coming from the rears, not just crowd noise. The bass pedals are a little loud, and the guitars and keyboards are a bit low in the mix at times. But I think this disc sounds unexpectedly good.

In addition to the 83 minute concert video (annoyingly still interrupted every so often by interview segments), there is 48 minutes of audio only songs that are also in 5.1 DTS-HD master audio.

I've been thinking about getting this. What's the video quality like?

The video quality is good, not HD excellent but good.

If anyone is worried about the picture quality and the intrusive interviews, then I suppose you could look at this disc as a 48 minute audio surround sound live disc with a video as an extra!

King Crimson - Starless (box set)

Such a massive set I didn't know where to start! Decided to grab blu-ray #2 and go for the Mainz 30 March 1974 surround mix.

The Endless River blu-ray. Autumn'68 is making my living room tremble!
(Piece of advice: be patient and wait until having the dvd or blu-ray, don't spoil the first time by listening to the cra%%y mp3)

I thought I knew this album inside out. This 5.1 mix has, not at all unexpectedly, truly opened every song up. The master has worked his magic once again. Stunning.

Only an idiot puts interview between songs! Sabbath's 'Supper' DVD has intverviews over guitar solos for Christ's sake! The new Clapton Blu Ray has interviews between songs as well!
