I just watched Fellowship of the Ring again, too. About a year ago I finally got to see the extended edition. It's much better than the original theatrical release. I love all the quiet scenes of added dialogue. They enrich the story so nicely. I'll get to Two Towers later this week.

Went to Barnes & Noble last night and there were signs all over the music area advertising 30% off + 10% additional for members. Couldn't pass up Imagine Ultimate collection for $63. There is so much material here to go through, and Ive just started scratching the surface. Has original Quad from 1971 and updated 5.1. Sounds like it was recorded yesterday! Well done!

One of my oldest friends (well, I've known him for the longest!) is coming over tomorrow; haven't seen him in a couple of years. He's never heard surround. Looking for a disc to blow him away. This one came to mind

 

[Clement]

And you know Ima play this one for him!

The O'Jays Ship Ahoy

He said he loves the O'Jays but is not familiar with this album (?!?). Didn't even know it was full of social commentary--'sup with that!?!

They waited so long they ought to include an actual doobie rolled by Patrick Simmons with the Quadio boxset release!

Imho the 5th disc in this should be concert footage of their new tour w sound mixed in 5.1 & atmos....now that would be GREAT!

Ive actually grown to REALLY like that one. .but b sure to raise those rears/sides

I listen to this often. Some of the best guitar licks..
In most cases raising the surrounds won't help. ...There's nothing there.
From time to time some random sound may poke out of the mix but there isn't content continuously coming from the surrounds.
I really like this music. It rocks. But I won't rate it because I would have to give the mix a 3 or 4.

Something different today....Psurroundabout and then the DVDV of "RPWL - Plays Pink Floyd's The Man And The Journey". Didn't quite get through RPWL today, but will tomorrow plus some requested Penteo from the other side of the planet!
