Listening to Now (In Surround) - Volume 2

George Benson BODY TALK [D~V/CTI/QUAD SACD] Rule of Thumb: When your BODY TALKS .... LISTEN!

Thanks for the heads-up on this, just scored one off ebay brand new from Germany for $19.06 shipped. I loved the 5.1 of Breezin, and Songs & Stories. Hope this is at least 1/2 as good.

I really like Songs & Stories. I don't care nearly as much for Body Talk. But at least you've already set your expectations at a very conservative 1/2 as good

Thanks Clement!

Gunners! I prefer my copy where I boosted sub by 5db. Sounds, fat and great!

I agree. Most of the songs need a sub frequency boost. Low LFE level?

I got it cheap so if I don't like it, no big loss. I often give them to charity after I rip em anyway. LOL

My VERY FAVORITE George Benson CTI Recording was WHITE RABBIT. Although it was never remixed in surround, it would make a stellar D~V Stereo
SACD!

Weather Report - Tale Spinnin’


Nice!

 

[bgf1973]

Guns N’ Roses - Appetite For Destruction

first listen

 

[fredblue]

Ive got the monster disc of this one

i think the Monster release is a different mix and/or may be a live performance whereas the SACD & DVD-A are of the studio album?

The "forgotten" E, W & F multichannel

Standard "live" mix: mostly audience and reverb in the rears (with the occasional surprise). Smokin' live performances and solid POLL showing

psst... Clem... your Poll is showing!

This one gets little attention here.

Listening now to this fine DTS 5.1 20 bit recording, Brian Wilson-Imagination, released 1998. I accidentally bumped into this when LuvmyQuad suggested I get the Herb Alpert 5.1 DTS Passion Dance. This Brian Wilson came up and I purchased both for about $33.00. The Brian Wilson disc was mixed at his house, 20 bit mastering by bob Ludwig, remixed for DTS by Frank Papalardo. Love it, has an absolute big sound from studio muscians and carrys the big Pet Sounds vibe to it. No video image available as I am listening to the hard disk, have not ripped yet. I like how the vocals are front center, and then when his overdubbed backing vocals come in they are full rears, highly enjoyable. Unfortunately not listed in our QQ polls, but if it was I would vote 10.

You will enjoy Gene, especially at that price, when you listen you won't be able to deny the studio feel of Pet Sounds, really great.
Lots of good Wiki Info here.

Have never heard this one Ralph; it should be great, just look at the other musicians on it and arranged by Sebesky too ... hmm
