Having an eclectic evening, with a bottle of red. So far:

Devin Townsend - Empath
Yes - The Quest
Cyan - King and Country
Mr Big - Lean Into It

Varied music, all great surround mixes

 

[Tornado Red]

Dire Straits - Brothers In Arms on SACD in 5.1. My first ever SACD from back in the day, still one of my favourites!

 

[humprof]

Donny Hathaway, Extension of a Man (1973). Lucky to have a good conversion from quad reel of this fine Tom Dowd mix (a favorite track: the instrumental "Valdez in the Country"), but man, this is one of those albums you'd kill to hear in a high-res modern format. Such a beautiful record.

 

[Cibola]

Toby Keith Shock'n Y'all Super Audio CD (5.1 PCM 88.2 kHz),
Bumped the surrounds a bit, niceCenter is fully active on this one.

 

[humprof]

Isaac Hayes's other soundtracks: Tough Guys and Truck Turner (both from 1974). Kind friends lent me SurroundMaster decodes of both albums, plus a Q8 conversion of TG. More of that moody, urbane instrumental jazz-funk (instrumental except for the theme songs, that is, which--shut your mouth!--may be even more of a hoot than "Shaft!"). Lots of separation in the mix, even on the SQ versions. Sonics on Tough Guys are a little thin, though, and light on bass. Wouldn't it be great to have these, together with Shaft, in a brand-new box set?

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers MOJO [Reprise Records/Pure Audio BD~A 5.1/48/24]

 

[humprof]

Roland Haynes, 2nd Wave (1975). One of the rarer Black Jazz titles? One of the better ones, anyway. Again, the CD reissues retained the QS encoding. And the SurroundMaster really cleans up the quad imaging.
