ELP Emerson Lake & Palmer Cataloge in 5.1 Surround

[rtbluray]

The newest Classic Rock Presents Prog magazine also confirms that deluxe editions of the albums ELP, Tarkus, and Trilogy are all due later this year. No mention of BSS, Pictures, or Welcome Back though.
(Actually still no mention of 5.1 for any of the albums...)

Now I think the 5.1 surround is definitely happening based on this lovely post by our dear friend Mr. Wilson...

SW: Might be (-;

I'm now paying very close attention. SW mixing ELP= Yummy.

[doppelbock]

Oooooh.....now that's potentially some *very* good news! Not just for the 5.1 mixes either, but also the stereo mixes - maybe they'll get the "Tull/Crimson" treatment!

[LizardKing]

OK - Now I'm offically very interested... lets hope for Blu-ray or DVD-A - please please pleeeaaase...

I am hoping for the same.
Has anyone seen any more information on this?

fantastic if SW is doing surround remixes, but I see the original mixes are being remastered *again*....

those master tapes are gonna wear out if they keep doing that. ;>

Just devoted that's all. Did you see my Manticore photo album?

Apologies I stepped away. I haven't put it fully into QQ where I thought you'd see it in my profile. Here's the FB version.

I'm thinking that greg Lake attended the listening party that SW & RF threw a couple years, maybe not.

SW continues to make my dreams come true. However they package these, and however long I have to wait, these will be purchased right away.

No doubt about that!

[Quad Linda]

Ditto on that. I'd stand in line overnight when those hit the street. If they do Tarkus in surround, would the track name be changed to 4 Bitches' Crystals or Bitches' 5.1 crystals?

I was elated that the first multi DVD-A I found was Brain Salad. I never bought Welcome Back on Q8, because I was waiting for that elusive CD-4.

Hey, where did you buy that QuadraDisc of Trilogy? lol!!

I saw some whispers out there on the interwebs that indeed it seems to be true - mixes by SW.

So yet again I'll be buying ELP reissues, only this time it'll be pure pleasure!

Classic 70's Prog - mixed by SW - It doesn't get much better...

It would get better if I were in the studio with Steve Wilson ; )

I heard from a reliable source that the master tapes of WBMFTTSTNE cannot be found which, I believe, is the reason why Sanctuary never released it.

Actually, this was on the Rhino DVD-A upcoming releases information list for a few weeks in 2003 (along with Chicago X and I forget what else) before fading away.

RE: CD4 Trilogy

Over the last couple years we've had fun around here baking fake album jackets for the un-released quads and such. I found this on the internet a few months ago so can't claim it.

Re: ELP Welcome Back CD4 - I've told the story several times before. In my profile photos you can see the JVC CD4 Cutting Center photos; this is where the engineer told me they could never engineer a stable CD4 master because as he said, the masters were not engineered well to bgin with. He pointed to a tape storage locker, so that was the end of that.

Sure, I remember it was on the Rhino DVD-A upcoming releases. I called them a bunch of times about it. But like I said, this was planned for release but it never happened BECAUSE the master tapes were NEVER FOUND. This is what I have been told.

*Confirmed* it's SW by Bobby Fripp in his diary:

Steven is the Numero Uno in-demand go-to Sonic Re-Vibrator of albums from the so-called Progressive Period. One of Steven’s recent jobs has been remixing the first two ELP albums. After several visits that fell through, Greg arrived to check-out the re-mixes. Steven was surprised to learn how much of my guitar playing I had learnt from Greg himself.

I would guess it will be DVD-Audio?
Hope so, I have players in both my cars..can't wait!

Great that Steven Wilson is doing the remixes!

when does he takes a rest?

[jdmack]

Took me a minute to realize that it was Greg who said this to Steve and not Robert. How pleased Robert must have been to learn this ; ).

Greg's ego is matched by his girth.
