Billy Joel STREETLIFE SERENADE [SONY Japan/4.0 SACD/with Blu Spec CD Billy Joel Live at the Great American Hall 1975]

All I can say ..... SONICS TO DIE FOR!

And the 7" Packaging: EXEMPLARY!

Even the old cd is well done.

Beastie Boys HOT SAUCE COMMITTEE PART TWO [Capitol Records/1 BD~V/1 DVD~V Dolby Digital 5.1] Comes with a 120 page hardbound book and let me say off the bat I've had this set since 2014 and was never really impressed with the DD 5.1 but on my new energized all Meridian System it's a WHOLE NEW BALL GAME. The Sound is nothing short of ASTOUNDING ....fully DISCRETE and earth shattering bass front and rears. The included BD~V which is DTS~HD MA 5.1 is likewise discrete and features 25 A list actors [like Will Ferrell, Jack Black, Danny McBride, Elijah Wood, Seth Rogen, Susan Sarandon, Stanley Tucci, et alia] in director Adam Yauch's MTV award winning directorial debut and is indeed a TRIP unto itself. Checking my Amazon 2014 purchase, I was able to get this awesome set for under $12, brand new.

The DVD~V in DD 5.1 contains a full 18 tracks + 5 remixes all in dazzling discrete sonics rivaling even current LOSSLESS DTS~HD MA and even Dolby ATMOS sonics ...... guaranteed to give any respectable system a sonic BLITZ.

Very highly Recommended

So I started spinning some new discs tonight
Alice Cooper Muscle Of Love Quadio
Never had it grew up with the Killer album once upon a time.
This was nice but does not blow me away like Billion Dollar Babies in Rhinos fantastic first bundle
More spins are needed.

Curtis Mayfield Roots Quadio
New to me and I got nervous reading the reviews but I like it. Sounds fine mix is average. Love the bass playing in Get Down. Starts to drag for me the last couple of songs. I will be listening again.
But you know what? Amazon has his Superfly album for 5 bucks. Freddie's dead but will be living in my house.
That is a song I remember.

Now capping the evening off with the fantastic Elton John Diamonds. A very worthy purchase.

But I can't end the evening until I listen to A Hard Rain and Bryan Ferry Retrospective.....
