Queensryche Empire DVD-A 5.1 is in the mail.

Until then, it's just another rainy night without...

Oh yeah!

Kalimba, ooh Kalimba, play me a tune
Kalimba, ooh Kalimba, I'm glad I found you

Yoo-Hoo! :wave

I am very impressed with not only the gentle, relaxed performances but also the sound quality of this DVD-A.

As nice as the previous post's Debussy/Ravel DVDA is, it might be a little hard to come by these days. There are other excellent recordings. This recent PentaTone SACD of a vintage 1974 Quad recording is fantastic! Seiji Ozawa and the Boston Symphony give an inspired performance of these gorgeous works by Ravel. The Quad recording provides a spacious, airy soundstage that suits the impressionistic mood of Ravel's masterworks. The rear channels are discrete.

Highly recommended!

Which Crimson DVD-As do you not have yet, Adam?
I'd be happy to point you in the right direction in terms of prioritizing in what order you should finish out the collection. (Or just look at the High-Res poll. It's pretty spot on IMO)

Thank you kind sir! :upthumb:

Well I only have Red, Lizard and now Aspic so far.., I'm poised to get In The Court next (I should have got it by now, I know.. a shameful business! ) but if you think there's a better choice (I love "Lizard" btw) then please do guide me!

King Crimson are another one of the many acts I'd never have embarked upon checking out if it weren't for 5.1/4.0.. but I stopped at two albums rather than "get them all" as they come out (as is my modus operandi with these surround things!).. I saw Aspic for a tenner so seemed right time to get back on the horse years later.. and so now I shall endeavour to "get them all"..

I'd go with this order myself:

1) "In the Court of the Crimson King"
2) "Discipline"
3) "Islands"
4) "Starless & Bible Black" (2 upmixes)
5) "In the Wake of Poseidon" (Devil's Triangle is upmixed)

If you can find the Court box for a good price, get that! It's not nearly as expensive as the Larks, Starless, or Red boxes but still has plenty of great content to enjoy!

Gave it a v.quick spin last night; the Quad is GORGEOUS...!! Not so enamoured of the Stereo, sounded dull and lifeless by comparison.
