No, they released it via the Sony Japan thing at one point. I guess in such limited quantities, though? It's like $200 now.All the Jeff Beck quad albums could use a rerelease in 4.0, as is now standard practice for Sony Japan.

I know. All the Jeff Beck quads were released in this 7" series, and—to my knowledge—all used 5.1 manipulations of the original 4.0 masters. They ought to have stayed in 4.0, which is how Sony seems to be doing it since Santana's Lotus.No, they released it via the Song Japan thing at one point. I guess in such limited quantities, though?

It's not like a silent center channel thing?I know. All the Jeff Beck quads were released in this 7" series, and—to my knowledge—all used 5.1 manipulations of the original 4.0 masters. They ought to have stayed in 4.0, which is how Sony seems to be doing it since Santana's Lotus.
The Jeff Becks have audio in the center and LFE channels. Technically, all 4.0 SACDs must use a 5- or 6-channel format to comply with the Scarletbook standard, which does not support 4-channel audio. The more recent Sony quad SACDs have silent center (or center and LFE) channels.It's not like a silent center channel thing?
The Vocalion EWF releases are AWESOME, and reasonably priced!I would love it if Sony Japan could give us the following:
Billy Joel:
- Turnstiles (4.0 vintage mix)
- Piano Man (4.0 vintage mix)
Earth, Wind & Fire:
- Spirit (4.0 vintage mix)
- That's the Way of the World (4.0 vintage mix)
And if they wanted to follow these up some more Santana I certainly wouldn't complain.
As much as I love this album and I'm sure that the Japanese presentation will be quite impressive visually, I have the AF disc so I'll have to pass.
Coming November 27th ........ To buy or NOT to buy since I do love the Audio Fidelity QUAD SACD! NOTE: ONLY the CD layer contains BONUS tracks!

Re: Laura Nyro's "Eli and the Thirteenth Confession"wonder WHICH of the two Quad mixes will be chosen???
you NEVER know with those crazy Japanese!!!!
Yes of course. I'll hold out for some exclusive quads that we know are sitting there untouched and un-reissued. We've been vocal enough about what we want from Sony, so they know. I guess they are not going to do any RCA label titles?As with Headhunters and Blow By Blow (Analogue Productions), Jeff Beck Group and Birds of Fire (Audio Fidelity), and Carlos Santana & Buddy Miles! Live! (Dutton Vocalion), I'll be skipping the 7".
