Eric Clapton - new boxset with 74/74 quad mixes & Scheiner 461 Ocean Blvd. 5.1 mix

Does anyone know if EC was here quad is included or not on the bluray.

According to Amazon, no

A Blu-Ray disc featuring a new 5.1 Surround Sound mix of 461 Ocean Boulevard and original quadrophonic mixes of 461 Ocean Boulevard and There's One In Every Crowd

Yeah but I think we'll really only know once somebody holds this baby in their hands. Throughout this thread, guys have posted track listings from various sources and they are contradictory. This one says EC Was Here is in quad.

Thanks

I will wait until its out before I bite

Half the time Amazon cannot even get the disc format correct, never mind track lists!!!

One would hope that Universal had the right track listing:

Amen to that one - with 69 tracks in 5.1 or Quad.
Even the Quads are "previously unreleased" in this form, and hopefully the quality is up there too. Really looking forward to this one a LOT

double post

I read on another site that this set's been pushed back to December 10th.[though some places still have it as November 25th]

This boxset is rightly called "GIVE ME STRENGTH".. Amazon UK just emailed informing of delays

So, just to confirm, there is nothing in this set in 5.1 surround that has not already been released in multi-channel? If so, I'm cancelling my order because I'm not a big enough Clapton fan to buy these again. I've got 461 Ocean Blvd. and There's One In Every Crowd on dts cd. I also have that set that had the album and some title in 5.1 that came out awhile back. It's the one that Amazon posted a cheap price mistakenly when it was first listed and honored that price for pre-orders? Can't recall the title. I have never even opened the package after it arrived. Is the Screiner mix something that has never been released previoulsy? Even at that,I realize the quality would be better, but I don't think it would be worth it for me.

Only the 5.1 Scheiner mix of 461 Ocean Blvd. (plus bonus tracks) is previously unreleased. The quad mixes of 461 and There's One In Every Crowd are previously released on the DTS CD's you have, but this is their first time in any uncompressed digital format.

Truly a shame they couldn't have included the quad mix of EC Was Here, if it does indeed exist. That would've made this box set a must-buy.

Thats only the info from the backside. I haven`t placed the Blu in my player. In time the living room is full of my family, so I can`t check the disc.
