Barclay James Harvest (3 CD +1 5.1 DVD Box Set)

[DuncanS]

Do the vocals in the center channel take your head clean off like the other BJH 5.1 releases?

I decided to give BJH a listen as I'd opened he box. The first track "Taking Some Time On" had me worried as there wasn't very much 'discrete' in the rear channels, but the rest of the tracks are really nice, orchestral instruments mainly in the rears. As for the vocals I would say although they are still centre-centric but they're not as 'in-your-face' as previous ones. Its an album I've owned for ages on CD but never really 'listened' to it, the surround mix has made me reappraise it, I heard hints of influences for the first time - like Procol Harum in places. A nice box set.
