I'm sure I will! I really like the whole range of their stuff. Slight preference for the mellower output, but there is a time and place, for me, for the heavier, growly stuff.
I love heavy prog.

Well you should definitely enjoy this album as it's one of their heaviest, but it's still got some mellower moments here and there.
Plus I'm especially anxious to hear what you think of Jens Borgen's surround mix of the album. I've never really been a big fan of his surround mixing skills, but other people still enjoy listening to these mixes.
AND… I should add that the CD has a great cover version of the Deep Purple song "Soldier of Fortune" as a bonus track
Plus there's one music video and a making-of-the-album documentary on the DVD

What is a CD???
I look forward to hearing and reviewing the 5.1. Just beware, in case it isn't evident quite yet, I tend to take a "do I enjoy this" approach to listening to surround, rather than "what is technically wrong with this."
Hopefully I'll corroborate some good data, but I tend to be more forgiving of certain mix practices than others.

But seriously, I'll have to spin Soldier of Fortune. Last song on Stormbringer, right? Pretty cool tune, IIRC.
Yep, mixed in Quad and also re-released as a CD/DVD-V set in 2009.
(Still never actually bought that one BTW cause for me it's harder to get into other Deep Purple lineups besides the classic "Machine Head" lineup, but I do also love "Soldier of Fortune" too)
I like Stormbringer because it's pretty inaccessible (nothing poppy on it). But, I'll be trying to get Machine Head first. I'm pretty sure Stormbringer is OOP and OOP is usually OOPR (out of price range) for me!
I think Machine Head is now on BD-A and in print?

Nope, it's never been released on Blu-Ray audio yet.
A 'modern' 5.1 mix of the album can be found on DVDA and Multichannel SACD (Japanese edition), while the European Quad mix can be found on DVDV (in a box set) and Multichannel SACD (European edition), but as of right now, there is no Blu-Ray audio version of any of the surround mixes of "Machine Head".
Hope that helps!
You can get the Stormbringer Quad DVD set from Amazon UK from around $10 new

I bought my Stormbringer DVD set from that exact listing @Amazon UK and it is the NTSC version made in EU, pic to follow..
As you can see its Region Free, NTSC, made in E.U. version.
I don't know which territory the PAL version is from but I would be surprised if you received the PAL instead of this NTSC version as the latter is common here, I often saw it in HMV right up until they went bust and I come across it in used record shops fairly frequently.
Maybe you can check UPC with reseller first, edisonbaggins ?
