New Dolby Atmos BluRay discs from Rhino

[haikubass]

Although The Doors were a little before my time, I recently bought The Doors movie on VHS at a thrift shop, the movie was interesting enough for me to head over to Vintage Stock soon to buy a used disc copy of the movie.

The Doors Blu-ray does mention that the disc has a 5.1 mix, but no mention of the original ~50 year old 4.0 Quad mix being on the new Blu-ray too, a Google search reveals that this 4.0 mix has been released twice already (not by WMG/Rhino though), I'm wondering why the original 4.0 mix wasn't included on this new Atmos Blu-ray?

It's 19 songs, so quad not available for all of those

I would like to have the original 4.0 mix of The Doors also (no need for the stereo "downmix" of it), perhaps once these Atmos Blu-rays are sold out, this title could be remastered and rereleased with the 4.0 mix added (maybe for $30 instead of $25)...and now back to the regularly scheduled thread...

It seems highly unlikely this would be reissued for a third time. You can find The Singles 2CD/Blu-Ray set from 2017 on eBay or Discogs for ~$35.

I ordered The Doors, FM, Alanis, and added Air 10000 hZ to the cart. Free shipping and the discount posted earlier made it a decent deal.

Why no OG quad mix?

Why no OG quad mix?

I think people are confusing this release (1985 double album) with the 1973 compilation of the same name, which did have a quad mix but only had 11 songs on it. It has been reissued in quad twice now, once from Audio Fidelity and once again on Blu-ray from Rhino themselves in 2017 as part of “The Singles” set.

Yeah, as you mentioned there are two compilations with same/similar names.

1. The Best of The Doors (1973 album)
- The quad release, later released as SACD/Blu-Ray
- More Info: Wikipedia

2. The Best of The Doors (1985 album)
- Cover of the upcoming Atmos matches this one. Confirmed by Foraging Rhino earlier in the thread.

Stoked!! Wanted Rumoirs and Jagged specifically, but to get free freight I ordered all four - nope! 8 cents short

Is everyone getting an email receipt after ordering from Rhino today?
I inquired about mine and they claimed to have sent a receipt again.
But still no joy!

I got one yesterday when I ordered. It came about… 5 min after I ordered? Pretty quickly.

Maybe check your spam/junk folder?

So, right out of the gate, I decided to only order Rumours & Doors Hits. I don't want the pressure to buy every single one. (like the SDE series)
Now, will I regret it and buy the other 2 some evening during a relapse?

YES!

Of course - no joy.

Been looking for a copy of Rumours for ages, after purchasing the Deluxe Box Sets of Fleetwood Mac & Tusk for the 5.1 - then selling the CD’s/LP/Box.
Very grateful to get the 5.1 + Atmos on Blu-ray as a stand-alone purchase.
Put it out there with a friend here in AUS, -15% who also wanted a copy, and in the end ordering + postage to AUS for A$90 - that’s only $45each

I believe this has been answered before, but if I pre-order the Doors and Fleetwood Mac along with Alanis and the War Quadio, will those two in stock items be shipped out immediately? @ForagingRhino

I can answer this as I ordered all four Atmos titles and have received a shipping notice for Alanis and Hootie.

4 for 4. This purchase has caused to me rethink others so I can stick to a better budget! I put the brakes on the SDE series with the latest offering to instead fund these.

Ditto, but the items have not left the shipping center as UPS says they can't find the tracking number. IIRC, it was a few days before the items actually got picked up by UPS from the shipping center.

I'm treating my brother to Sister Sledge and Chaka Kahn in a double billing in June this year. It's part of his 50th birthday pressies.

You're just doing this because you Khan.

Only a PayPal confirmation, for me, after more a day.

I was also enticed by free shipping. I ordered Alanis, because that album is iconic to my formative years.
I’m traumatized by the Hootie album, so f*%k that. I searched around the store for something else I wanted, which ended up being 10000 HZ, by Air.
