Seiji Ozawa conducting the Boston Symphony Orchestra MAURICE RAVEL: ORCHESTRAL WORKS {Pentatone/QUAD SACD 4.0] MAGNIFICO!

 

[J. PUPSTER]

a recently acquired 1971 Japanese QX LP, called:
The Flight Of The Bumble Bee - Attack On Limit (by-Sound Of '71 Kohzu)
* Columbia MS Master Sonic QX (Regular Matrix Quad) series.
It's some weird Classical Avant-garde style music. On this song below called "Carnival Of Venice" it has a couple of spots that sound like a Carousel rider experiencing a slow Doppler Effect

Pupster you are picking up some really great and obscure Japanese quad albums. At least the covers are great

Now listening to XTC The Big Express
Been a while. Enjoyable first song kicks off with great panning in the rear speakers. Does not sound like a lesser XTC album to me.

4ears I have that Ravel Pentatone above. It gets played.

Jazz on a Sunday morning. @humprof said it best: "Beautiful record, a rare Rudy van Gelder 5.0 mix, and an even rarer MCh SACD on the High Note label!"

The latest from TPT - It Leads To This

It has been a while since I went to a record store as I have most of the stuff send to me. For this one and a few others I decided to pick it up in store. Nice to browse the racks to see other stuff as well, brings back good memories.

And the alternate album. This is one of the things I like so much about Bruce Soord his work, you mostly get 2 albums instead of 1.

NICE! What are the differences? You have a preference yet? Stay Surrounded, Comrade!

Just arrived! At first glance...beautiful photography inside. Luminescence and Our Ship Sails At Dusk really connected with me. Love it. The mixes are amazing.

Hi Clement, the main difference is that the regular album is electric guitar driven while the alternate album is acoustic guitar driven. I have no preference yet, it is all fresh for now.

The booklet mentions our guys @Neil Palfreyman and @sjcorne for play testing the disc. Thanks both.
