The Singles - The Doors (The BD-A with The CDs in The Digipack)
I purchased about an hour ago but somehow got derailed and now listening to the stereo HFPA BD-A of Miles Davis Take Off Blue Note Albums in DTS HD Master.
David Gilmour-Live At Pompeii[2 cd/2 Blu ray set]
I'm happy for audiophiles & historians that these are available, Chambers is a legend and this is a classic release.
But I question the benefit of the Hi Res upgrade to all but the most golden-eared.
It's in mono, plus they really rolled off the bottom end back in the 50s, so the needle wouldn't jump out of the groove.
I bought it this year as part of a 8 LP on 4 CD box set for $12.
The SHM-SACD costs triple that.
If a Chambers fan grabs a copy, I'd be curious if it the SHM-SACD is a quantum improvement on the budget box.
I've picked up half a dozen or so similar sets at similar prices for some of the jazz legends:
Mingus (5), Ray Brown (7), Bill Evans (10), Coltrane (5)...
A $55 20-CD Miles Davis on Columbia box.
A substantial budget CD jazz library for the price a few audiophile imports.
We're fortunate we live in the golden age of CD reissue and Euro union to have so many desirable options.
The casual fan fixed-income budget option, 289 minutes, 8 LPs on 4 RBCD.
