I decided to give this a second listen because on the first listen, I didn’t much care for it. I really like it now. It must’ve been my mood at the time.

Decided to burn through Waters' solo library in one go since it hadn't really grabbed me before, and this time Pros and Cons just hit perfectly. I get it now. And FreeSurround does a nice job decoding Holophonics.

Radio K.A.O.S. got an upgrade in my estimation too.

Amused to Death still took some effort, I can't stand "Perfect Sense," but I liked "Home Late Tonight" and lots of people seem to hate that.

Only managed to get halfway through ITTLWRW before I burnt out. Too many songs about dead children.

First listen. Sex Dwarf has always been my favorite song on this album. Great vocals by Marc Almond. He was born to sing!

I think Radio kaos is a brilliant album, perfect for atmos with the radio presenter etc

Jethro Tull Aqualung 5.1 Adapted Edition

BEFORE AND AFTER will be available in four formats: vinyl LP; clear vinyl LP (Limited Edition)), Blu-Ray disc featuring Atmos mix, Binaural mix and Hi-Res 96/24 stereo; as well as Compact Disc.

A VERY nice surprise from the Canadian wunderkind in superb Dolby ATMOS/Stereo 96/24 sonics. A 48 minute continuous 'montage' of solo acoustic songs with ultra sparse instrumentation and sounding very analogue~y! Immersive soundfield, nonetheless!

Omg, my first time hearing this album, very rocky and with a string quartet, right up my street

First listen. Sex Dwarf has always been my favorite song on this album.

I really need to pop mine open and hear that song.

It’s really not a bad album. Some songs are better than others. What makes it a good listen for me is Marc Almonds voice. Possibly, an underrated singer? I’ve only owned the first two Soft Cell records from back in the day. I’ve never heard nor purchased any of the other Soft Cell or Marc Almond Solo records. Too many other artists and bands to enjoy. I’m still hoping that The Art Of Falling Apart gets the same Dolby Atmos treatment on disc. I feel it’s the better album between the two.
