The Who - Who’s Next SDE series no. 30 (January 17th, 2025)

I would have so loved it if SDE didn't do Who's Next but rather Quadrophenia instead,the Who's Next sale for SDE is going to be kind of meh, but if it was Quadrophenia, wow a blockbuster. In Atmos of course.

On the contrary, it might be one of their biggest sellers. I know it seems like 'old news' to those of us who bought the box set last year, but a lot of people who would've liked to hear the surround mixes probably skipped it due to the high cost.

The only way I'd buy Quadrophenia on Blu-Ray again is if they redid it with Wilson at the helm.

Indeed... I also dislike being pressured into buying surround sound releases that include vinyl.

I was not impressed with Quadrophenia on Blu-Ray at all. Big let down. Was hoping it would be as good as Tommy on DVD-A or SACD. It did not so I won't get Who's next! Besides, I like Who's Next, I don't LOVE Who's Next.

Your logic is seriously flawed here. Quadrophenia was mixed by Bob Pridden and Richard Whittaker, whereas Who's Next was mixed by Steven Wilson. It does not follow that because you weren't satisfied by the former that the latter will also disappoint.

Well first nothing is flawed because that's my experience. I hope another Who's Next is killer but I have enough of them to not need another I only think is just ok. My experience, no flaw. My Life House Who's Next if just fine. I hope you spend your money on the Blu Ray and it's great!
