"Africa" is one of those songs that helped me hook my daughter on surround!

The $15 shipped disc referenced in this
POST is also still available. Stay Surrounded, Comrade!
Thanks again Clement. The disc finally arrived almost a month after it was shipped - but it was worth the wait as the 7 surround tracks sound excellent. I really appreciate you giving me this tip. Would have never known about it otherwise. Sure wish more Beach Boys was available in Hi Res Surround mixes. It would seem likely that at some point a Blu-Ray Audio might come out from Linnett.
 
Thanks for the quick reply. I bet some folks but that set and NEVER listen to the surround disc because they do not have a surround system or just don't care. If only I could find them and help them out by taking their unwanted, unappreciated disc off of their hands. . . oh well

The 5.1 mix of that album was actually finished years ago and was originally supposed to be released as a single DVD-A, like Rumours and Say You Will. I'm just glad they finally released it after all this time, even though the box set package isn't exactly ideal.
 
Miles Davis ‎– ******* Brew SACD Quadraphonic

Musicians (partial list)
"******* Brew is a recording that producer Teo Macero assembled from various studio jams and takes by razor blade, splice to splice, section to section.
An improvisational landmark colored by guitar, bass, drums, horns, keyboards, and wind instruments.
******* Brew is the sound of the gap closing considerably on two musical universes long thought to be islands to one another.
Jazz, after all, was deep, emotive, and sophisticated. Rock and roll was wild and incorrigible, a cheap thrill"

I made it through One More Red Nightmare, so here's my WAKE and SHAKE (#2 on my Top 5 LIST)
1609593293647.png
King Crimson
Red
Both Larks’ Tongues in Aspic and Starless and Bible Black are revelations that I can’t imagine being without, but Red takes the next spot for several reasons. Basically the work of one of the greatest power trios (what a sound!), the album does feature some choice blasts from the past in appearances from Mel Collins (saxophones [and more] on In the Wake of Poseidon, Lizard, Islands, Earthbound), Ian McDonald (saxophones [and more] on ItCotCK, ItWoP), Marc Charig (cornet on Lizard and Islands), Robin Miller (oboe on Lizard and Islands), and the recently ousted David Cross (violin on LTiA, SaBB, and USA), making it a vision of what might have been had the band not been in its death throes. And the fact that such an album could be produced by a group on the edge of extinction earns its place on my list. For me, side 2 of the album (comprising “Providence” and “Starless”) embodies the power of the Passion (in the New Testament sense of the word--artists driven, willing to endure pain, suffering, and loss for the sake of their Art). The blu ray from the The Road to Red box set is as close as I’ll get to replicating the bliss the vinyl brought me back in my high school daze!
