The Pineapple Thief - Versions Of the Truth 5.1 DTS HD Master Blu-ray

EDIT: I've listened to it all now, am I allowed to say I prefer the Alternative versions? all sorts of sounds bouncing around!

Earth Wind & Sky Head to the Sky. AF SACD

Cheaper than when it was first sold.
Very nice. Now I have all the EWF quad reissues except for Gratitude.

Going on repeat this weekend.

PINK FLOYD: A MOMENTARY LAPSE OF REASON BD~A 5.1

It’s considered to be one of the most intriguing album covers in rock history. The picture in Pink Floyd’s “A Momentary Lapse of Reason” is, just like the band, a visual representation of extreme surrealism. But what’s most bizarre than the cover itself, is the story behind it.
Designed by the late Storm Thorgerson, the image contains no CGI or photoshop trickery whatsoever. This piece of art took was made by a dedicated team of photographers, it cost more than $500,000 and it was made possible by laying 700 beds along a beach in Los Angeles!

And by any chance, Pupster, did any of those beds end up in your Guest Bedrooms in Central Cali?

The Night Siren
*This one seems all over the place content wise and shifts dramatically; one second it's mid 70's Physical Graffiti, then some prog rock, then ethereal, then a mid-eastern Bazaar, then Gypsy Jazz, then Thomas Dolby/The Moody Blues/Cream/Simon & Garfarkel, and toss in some Prokofiev... getting close... maybe a half dozen other stuff

Its a fine production with a lack of cohesion and direction. Steve, what happened ?

Throw in some Tim Burton / Danny Elfman in there also...

"Duel of the Fates" sounds so good here! (I ripped the end title music from the blu-ray)
