Better Than Ezra - How Does Your Garden Grow

Well, how does it? Hey, is this a cool release? What format?

It's OK - not a huge fan of the music...but not bad really I guess. It claims to be a DVD-Audio with Dolby Digital 5.1. I think it's MLP 48kHz...or something like that....

Ditto, must've been years rather than months I think.. pretty cool musically and not bad mixwise.. shame there isn't/wasn't more stuff like it in Surround..

Really wish they could do some more Hawkwind, early stuff like Hall Of The Mountain Grill.A must for surround treatment.

Better Than Ezra - How Does Your Garden Grow

How you like this one GOS? Never mind already answered lol

Either way - this is one of Snood's fave bands - not the most accessible album of theirs but perfect for the surround treatment - there are some great songs & hooks in there.

This is the dvd-a that got me into surround totally by accident - pretty sure it will not play in normal dvd players, says so on the front.

If you can pick it up on the somewhat cheaper edison - do so :banana: - it was hard to findas they went out of print pretty fast

Only place i see it is here on Amazon for 17.98 not bad http://www.amazon.com/Better-Than-E...-4-fkmr1&keywords=better+than+ezra+garden+dvd

hmmm if someone no buy it, Snood might buy nother copy :banana:

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeird seller is Music Valet - the maker & producer of the product............hmmmm

Musically cool yes; I like it. The mix is good although from time-to-time they put stuff in the rears that is coming from the fronts as well; this weakens the surround field somewhat. But they don't ruin it; it is a good mix and sometimes even great.

Fidelity-wise vocals are great; the bass is wonderful. Drums and snares (likely electronic) seem compressed or limited on my system.

hahaha - yeah. I'm not surprised many folks on this forum like the Ezra stuff. I'm just a fish out of water with that "genre" I don't even know what genre it is...but when I hear that style, I know it. XTC, Ezra, etc. I just cannot get into it...much as hard as I try. Tears For Fears....same story. Just don't get any satisfaction when I listen. Odd huh? Now give me more 70's rock and I'm freaking slobbering like a fool.
