Maybe it's just me but Steve Howe looks to me like a mad scientist or an eccentric college physics professor.

The years can be gnarly savage to us humans.

Tonight’s 4-Channel fun! Cos this Tomita guy is a musical comedian. I’m chuckling and the wife is all “WTF is THAT?!! Like the Synergy but prefer the Stardrive.

I recently spent "a long time crossing bridge of sighs," so now it's time to cross a different bridge:

Hi Mike, I am looking at getting this in the special edition 5.1 dvd set, how do you rate the sonics on this mix? Cheers, Drew

I say go for it. Very cool metal and surround experience.

xPropaganda: The Heart Is Strange. BluRay from SDE.
And the LA Kings beat the Flyers in OT. A good evening indeed.

Menuhin/Shankar/Rampal - Improvisations.
The Doors - Strange Days.
Jethro Tull - Aqualung.

Interesting music for a boring morning.

DTS stuffed up and copy/pasted the credits from the Band On The Run Quad!

Really? I always wondered why McCartney would have produced a surround mix of this record

 

[TheGreatRamseythe2nd]

Shakespeare's Sister Hormonally Yours Blu Ray; Atmos mix. Pretty disappointed with this. Very good pop tunes, really mixed bag of surround. Some lead vocals are too low and dry for me. First track should have had the extra vocals in front heights to create the bubble, and more reverb. Many songs miss the sphere, '3D' effect. Could and should have been so much better.

Good mix Rog, keep up the good work

I believe in miracles! Not sure how it's working; to me, the Surround Master v.2 is a miracle!

A classic surround mix/package

 

[DuncanS]

Some Quadraphonic vinyl through the SM2, the Staples a nice bit of SQ soul (loved them since I discovered them when I bought the Last Waltz on my 21st birthday - all those decades ago!), some soulful QS blues from the great BBKing (sadly only saw him play once), and some SQ Prog-Jazz-Rock from Nektar with some madness courtesy of Bob Calvert as the Ringmaster! I do wish we had the new super Involve pre-amp with its Quad click removal though!

 

[Clement]

Enjoying this beauty that i've neglected for far too long . . . whilst i do some reading on what the funk an Involve pre-amp w/Quad click removal is! Uh-oh!

Led Zep. The Song Remains The Same.
Switching between DTS 5.1 and stereo, think I prefer the stereo mix.

Mongo Santamaria LIVE AT JAZZ ALLEY [Concord Records/hybrid Multi~CH SACD 5.1] Another superb immersive recording from Concord Records and Mongo Santamaria including a rousing recording of AFRO BLUE

I hope you are well, Ralph. Thank you for this post. Not only did i revisit it (smokin'!), i was reminded of another great set featuring Afro Blue

M. Sasaji & L.A. Allstars - Afro Blue

This one is a LOT of fun through the SM v.2 – outstanding! Would love to see a digital release!
