Ten Years After "A Space In Time" (limited-run SDE Blu-Ray with Dolby Atmos, 5.1, and Quad shipping 3/17)

[Owen Smith]

This is an album that doesn't do much for me. I heard OD's decode and on that basis it's a meh musically for me. Shame since it's a decent package.

Received the email last evening, pre-ordered without a second thought!

Hopefully you're not going to buy a copy then. 1000 won't go far for all the fans.

Yes, especially when some folks are buying more than 1 copy.....

ohhhh SNAP!

The QQ old timers know that I'm not buying 2 to make a profit.

Your generosity is legendary. You are legendary. And a little forgetful . . . in a legendary kind of way . . . which often prompts generosity. Legendary!

 

[califcab]

Wow they really know how to do it right. A perfect package at a fair price. Hope they continue to do these. Appreciated the heads up on this one so I could grab one.

Two things,

First :
I'm surprised that so many QQ rs that know their fret work are not familiar with Ten Years After.
Alvin Lee was considered one of the top ten best for his time.

Anyway I recommend you all check out , Ten Years After albums on Deram to start ...such as ..Stonedhenge (Hear Me Calling) , Cricklewood Green , Watt , Shhhhh , and Alvin Lee And Company.
All masterpieces I think.
Then on to Chrysalis...with ..A Space In Time , maybe Positive Vibrations , Electric Recorded Live ..and most definitely...
Rock And Roll Music To The World ,(this one is a must , and like Ken says ..Sadly no quad , but there certainly should be)
and again all masterpieces !!!!....... (with the exception of Positive Vibrs)


Secondly :

I kinda overlooked the quad mix date as 73 , but I think it's much earlier.
I checked the quad inner sleeve notes with the advertisement on the newly released SQ albums from Columbia ,Epic etc dated 72 , two different versions yet and it lists the album as available .
And Billboard stated Columbia's first quad albums were released Stateside November 1971. I think it's remotely possible for 1973. 1972 more likely.
I know I know it shouldn't matter , because regardless it's still one the best quads mix wise , and I think it's SQ demonstration quality so the discreet will of course be the same.

Anyway enough of my ocd .

MOST IMPORTANTLY
All you guitarissimos should check out those aforementioned TYA Albums , I don't think I could recommend a band much higher for Alvin Lee.


Lastly the sleeve pic.

Now officially sold out.

 

[Tribby2001]

I only ordered a dozen.

 

[paligap]

In my teen years, I knew of TYA mostly from Woodstock and A Space in Time. A few years later, when I was overseas, I bought this album and my appreciation for them grew:

There were plenty of blues rock acts at the time, but they just sounded different to me.

 

[LuvMyQuad]

Now officially sold out.

That didn't take too long

 

[woody]

The surround gods are frowning on me.
1. My receiver stopped amplifying and is currently being serviced.
2. I just read this thread and received no email- despite being a prior customer.

Only blessing is that I have never heard of them …

 

[bluelightning]

I saw the email from SD earlier but ignored it since I know nothing about the band. But after seeing all the enthusiasm here I thought I should pre order it, but low and behold they are sold out. I guess you snooze, you loose.

 

[mandrix]

Jeez freaking Louise.
Sold out already.
...and children, this is a classic album.

Ah well. Maybe they will do Cricklewood Green in the same treatment.

 

[quicksrt]

I figured half of them would be gone instantly and it would take a few weeks to sell out. I guess the Internet forums and the 1000 limit was enough to do the trick.

 

[Rob Bills]

I sure hope that all QQ members who would love this title, are aware of it. I figured it would sell out yet today. Haven't seen @edisonbaggins is on this thread, I'd assume he would want a copy.

He’s already onto it - see page 2 of this thread
