My Surround Master came in yesterday so I've spent the last four hours playing a bunch of QS encoded CDs. Here's the one I'm listening to at the moment.


Cool Simon !!

Let us know how she does , good buddy. :)


PS : A good thing there are still plenty of QS and SQ cds out there . Impulse , ABC , Virgin/EMI , Sony/CBS....etc.
 
The Doors L.A. Woman 5.1 MLP 96k 24b from the Perception box set, louder in this case is better.
Made it to the bonus tracks! Orange County Suite, nice. (You Need Meat) Don't Go No Further. Jim, Jim, Jim;)

Billy Joel - The Stranger (Columbia SACD)

Following The Stranger and with the exception of the first three songs on the album, I had a really tough time with 52nd St. I felt that Billy Joel had let me down and was producing only hits, leaving the rest of the album as filler. In my later years (40’s), I really learned to appreciate 52nd St. and it had become one of my favorites in his catalog.

I remember when The Stranger first came out. I was living in and going to high school in Ventura, California, and it was the Fall of 1977 when, while visiting a friend of my Step Mother’s, it was played for me and I was so blown away. I had to listen to it multiple times in that one day. I grew up in Chicago in my much younger years listening to Top 40 radio (WLS & WCFL). By the time I rebelled living with my Mom and made my way to California to be with my Father, I was heavily into hard rock and rock in general. The Stranger is the album that got me appreciating popular music again. By this time, I was listening to Disco too. So, I had to open my mind to the diversity of popular music. After The Stranger & 52nd St., all hell broke loose with Glass Houses. To me, that album was the absolute peak of BJ’s (🤔 those initials ring a bell. :LOL:) career.
