Take 3 exceptional guitarists....record them in the magnifient acoustics of St. Peter's Episcopal Church in New York City with Chesky's state of the art minimalist miking technique and you have the EXQUISITE THREE GUITARS. Highest Recommendation!

i love this one in Quad! definitely worth tracking down a discrete version from CD-4 or Q8, either knocks the decoded SQ into a cocked hat!

The O Jay's Live In London. DV SACD
Is that Pete Best on drums?
To me the star of this threefer set is Ship Ahoy

 

[beerking]

That's an understatement...

Yep that's my understanding too, Gene

All Along The Watchtower ....sublime
Always been my favourite track.

And considering that Electric Ladyland was recorded on 4 and 8 track recorders, I feel Eddie Kramer did a pretty remarkable surround remix.

Yep fully agree Ralphie, was thinking how good the mix is while I was listening to it. (Although I already knew but it's nice to have your memory refreshed!!)

My son just walked in the room to ask what is that song playing?
Song no 5 For The Love Of Money from Ships Ahoy
Great bass line
Thank you Michael D this set was worth buying just for song no 5.

M. Sasaji & L.A. Allstars AFRO BLUE [SONY Japan/Multi~CH SACD/DSD Recording] Superb Jazz for a languid Saturday Afternoon...but this DYNAMIC recording is anything but languid! Contains a brilliant rendition of Steey Dan's Babylon Sisters

I really love this new Quadio, listening to the 4.0 now.
I could listen to the song Sundown 20 times a day.
Funny, back in the day, I liked these songs, but would never buy a Gordon Lightfoot album. Thanks that I have changed my evil ways.
24bit/192Khz. DTS HD MSTR. DR's are 10's, 11's, 12's, 13's.
I noticed on front picture it did not get the Quadio Logo like the other 3 in the 4 pack bundle. I wonder why?

Make sure to give an extra listen to “Seven Island Suite”. The Quad 8-track of that song got me into this whole quad and multi-channel obsession! First listen, on the first quad tape I’d ever played, to that song which I’d never heard before… Oh man was I hooked!!!

 

[Quad Linda]

Seven Island Suite is my favorite track on my most played Quad album.

I LOVE this Quad LP! Sounds wonderful decoded through the ol' Surround Master!
