Santana "Welcome" 7-inch Sony Japan MultiCh SACD coming November 29th, 2023

[Blackwood]

Just yesterday I updated my What Are You Waiting On list and thought there wouldn’t be anything new announced the rest of this year.

I happily stand correct.

Ordered.

This is what I was waiting for. I will now order Super Session, LDS, and Welcome all at once to save on shipping costs!

Just saw this and was about to post it! So this makes it a very Santana Christmas!

Ordered. A very Santana Christmas indeed. Good old Santana Claus!

Just ordered it. At the time of ordering the website said ''only 19 initially supplied quantity left'.

 

[Scott65]

It's getting hard keeping up with all the releases this year between, DV, Sony Japan, SDE etc. A happy 'problem' though....

I just saw your post only 19 copies left! I cut my order right away, there were only 18 left at my time of ordering, so now only 17!

they may get more stock but who knows? Best to order now just in case.

Carlos was obviously not a comic book reader as he would have known that it's much more effective to shoot out laser beams from the eyes, not from the forehead...

Seems you made not only me nervous. 4 left now after my order...

 

[Progfiend]

Only 1 left now after my order....they're going fast!

 

[Blackwood]

Good news. I will be patient and wait for Borboletta to save on postage. EDIT: Ordered!

Your “patience” is an inspiration to all of us who might have thought the same thing about postage savings with a future order, but then decided “screw it” and ordered now before their first allotment ran out. I get the sense it was mainly us who burned through their initial allotment.

Can someone confirm... did Santana quads go to Festival, or did it end sooner?

 

[Scott M4]

Ordered. Nice that “mail” is available again for Canada.

all the way to 1977's "Festival"
next up i'm guessing may be "Illuminations", then "Borboletta", then "Amigos"

Yes they went to "Festival". Festival and Amigos were not very good Quad, some even claim that they were faked

So that is cheaper than DHL? For Germany, DHL is the cheapest solution (somewhere around 18 USD / 25 CAD for a single item, and not much more for multiple), and very quick as well.

Much cheaper!

Japanese original release. Santana's "Welcome" becomes available as SA-CD Multi Hybrid edition for the first time in the world. The SACD layer uses a DSD master converted from the original "Quadraphonic (4ch)" master. The CD layer uses the master from SACD (latest remastering). Features 7-inch mini LP packaging, faithfully replicating the artwork of the US Quadraphonic LP, including the ad poster.

One lot of record companies don't want my money as they only want to rent the music out, and the other lot are trying to bankrupt me by putting out lots of great music on disc! Oh happy days!! Ordering it

And I added the Duke Ellington/John Coltrane SACD to lower the P&P per disc!
