A Space in Time, the 1971 album from British rock band Ten Years After, is #7 in the continuing SDE Surround Series of exclusive Blu-ray Audios with Dolby Atmos Mixes.

The 1971 album is being reissued (belatedly) for its 50th anniversary. It was the groupโ€™s sixth, and best-selling album, featuring their best-known track โ€˜Iโ€™d Love To Change The Worldโ€™, which is used regularly on film and TV (most recently in David O. Russellโ€™s 2022 film Amsterdam). A Space in Time saw the band taking a more melodic direction from previous releases and showcased the band at their peak.

The Blu-ray Audio is only available via SDE and is packed with great content, as follows:

  • New Dolby Atmos Mix
  • 5.1 Mix (DTS HD-Master Audio 5.1)
  • 1973 Quad Mix (DTS HD-Master Audio 4.0)
  • 2023 Chris Kimsey Stereo Mix (48/24)
  • Flat transfer of the Original 1971 Mix (48/24)
The Quad Mix corrects the channels which were inadvertently switched (front to back) on the 2012 DVD (which came with a vinyl LP). The brand new stereo mix is by original producer/engineer, Chris Kimsey, using transfers from the original two-inch multitrack tapes. Chrisโ€™ work on the stereo mix was the basis for the new Atmos Mix.

Hereโ€™s the now traditional reminder as to why this product is highly recommended:

  • Itโ€™s the only way to enjoy the Dolby Atmos mix of the album via a physical product
  • You donโ€™t need to sign-up to a streaming service such as Tidal or Apple Music to hear the spatial audio mix
  • The Atmos Mix on the blu-ray is not compressed due to streaming bandwidth restrictions
  • You own the product, you are not renting it from a digital service provider
  • The blu-ray audio is an excellent format for music and you donโ€™t want to see it die off
  • Supporting SDE with these initiatives leads to similar collaborations with labels/artists and we are keen to bring your more in the near future

WOW!!! ๐Ÿคฏโค๏ธ
Instant Purchase!! ๐Ÿ’˜๐Ÿ‘
 
Hell, yes!! Ordering now. No hesitations. After years of searching for, finding & buying the DVD with inverted quad, this makes my day. Atmos and the adventurous quad mix. Hey, Pink, this is the way to release DSOTM. I can retire both SQ LP AND the DVD and get Atmos too!

And I just got the 5.1 set of Jethro Tull's Thick As A Brick today. Great for surround music fans.

I remember buying this album at the start of the school (Sophomore) year, and then many years later I acquired an unofficial DTS CD of the QUAD mix (from LP I think) which had a nice discrete mix. I ordered this one immediately! So out of 1,000 copies, I've counted 27 confirmed up to here.
 
Wow! Old guy music for everyone, with Atmos and on BluRay. How can you not order this? No brainer. DONE
One of the first rock albums recorded with quad in mind. A classic Columbia 4 corner quad

I have the DVD and that sounded good (once the channels were reversed), but I expect this to be the de facto standard release of this title. 1000 copies?? This will sell out momentarily. I am sure they will make more

Higher resolution will make that quad mix sparkle! Fixed chans is nice, and it always sounded good on that DVD, but this is going to be definitive. It will sell out so fast they will regret not pressing 2,500. Unless they go back and (quietly) do another run.
 
I rarely listen to this albumโ€ฆexcept for Iโ€™d Love To Change The World which I listen to all the time. I think that this SDE release is worth the money for this one song in high res quad and Atmos. The DTS disc from 2012 with the reversed front and rear channels becomes woodpecker repellent.

Only 1000 units? Buy now or repent later! Iโ€™m in with the rest of you.
 
Alvin Lee and Ten Years After, my first favorite band of all time, I own every CD/album. My favorite is Stonedhenge.
My wish ever since I started listening to surround music has been a surround box set with TYA, the Deram/Chrysalis Years.
This one release although not my favorite, is like I said get it as fast as I could.
I do have the LP/DVD from before. I just know this is going to sound fantastic.


Couldn't agree more.

I'll take any and all Surround Ten Yrs After albums , be they from Deram , or the later Chrysalis albums.
Saw them twice in the early 70's and pretty much had all but their first 2 albums.
Stonehenge as a 5.1start, would indeed be a welcome treat . Hopeful that someday someone with the surround chops , takes on their under-rated Catalogue.
