New Mystery Title Due Out Before Christmas 2024

[SHB]

I can think of no better album for a 5.1/Atmos release but Jeff Lynne is adverse to surround sound, which is a terrible shame.

Dang. That's too bad. I would also love Face the Music & Eldorado get mixed in 5 1. But none of this will ever happen.

Never say never. A decade ago when Crowded House's catalog was getting an overhaul it was suggested to Neil Finn that the albums all get a 5.1 remix. He shot it down saying he had no interest in surround. Neil has since changed his tune. The latest Crowded House album got 5.1 & Atmos mixes and Neil now says that he is definitely open to surround mixes of the back catalog. Hopefully someday soon Jeff Lynne can have a similar epiphany.

Aren't all Silverline releases bogus 5.1?

Many, but certainly not all. Here is one thread that might shed some light on the topic:

...never say never ... Maybe it's Romeo Void that's getting mixed in 5.1 .
But seriously, you're right. I sure hope he has a change of heart

I'll admit, I don't own this one; but it does have an average vote of an '8' in the Polls

Sabbath Bloody Sabbath! Oh hell, I know, I know. Fat effing chance

Might well aim high if you’re going to throw a wild guess out there. Good choice.
That album could be so awesome in some sort of multi channel mix.

I do too! The surround mix on this one was done by Todd himself. And it's a great later-day album from him. Some folks couldn't get past the pre-programmed drums, but the songwriting is very strong. It's easily my favorite of his 21st century albums.

....and with all this Rundgren talk, this one could be a real mind blower in the hands of the right engineer:

Right!? I have to go back to 1989's Nearly Human to find one i enjoy as much!

 

[Charly Mann]

Obviously the album is GILDED PALACE OF SIN by THE FLYING BURRITO BROTHERS. A classic song from the album is “Wheels”.

That one is fully legit.

Hint #2: What do Bruce Dickinson and Billy Sheehan have in common?

Great show way back in the day….

 

[QuadKev]

I'm jumping into my classic Thunderbird for this one. Throwing ZZ Top Fandango into the Q8 deck.

Both were on an Alice Cooper tribute album. So is our mystery artist Alice Cooper?

Killers?

Killers?

Admittedly, it makes more sense than my first guess which lacked quite a bit of seriousness. Now I’m stickin’ with Alice... until the moment I don’t.

The tribute album if anyone is curious:
