Yeah.. it SUCKS.. don't know when you started to get MCH releases, but even someone like me , who started in 2008, there are still a LOT od discs that I missed the "window of opportunity"!!! but I was lucky enough to find a few on places like jpc.de (both Al Dimeola SACDs for 13 EUR each and Pat Metheny's Imaginary Day for 18 Eur.. WOW!!!), hmv.co.jp (both Foreigner DVD-As for 25 EUR each and Billy Cobham's Spectrum DVD-A for 30 EUR), etc.
Many titles were already ridiculously expensive...!!!

Although, I picked up a few DVD-A’s (Dire Straits, The Eagles, Faith Hill, Fleetwood Mac, Queen) in the beginning starting in 2001, it wasn’t until around 2007 that I started to acquire more surround titles. I passed on some (like the first few Depeche Mode and Genesis titles as an example) that I kinda wished I had now. Hopefully, the Foreigner and other titles will see a re-release.

I think if you keep playing the waiting game a cheaper one will probably pop up. I paid like $25 for mine a few years ago.

4 is the better mix IMO and usually the harder one to get.

I saw that along with some others and Foreigner 4. A few months ago, I would’ve jumped but the past few months have been a financial burden and the near future doesn’t look that much better. So, unless I really, really want a title and can’t live without it, I need to be conservative in my spending.

I almost choked when I read this "stunning 6 channel surround sound"...Silverline and stunning should never be used in the same sentence:ugham:

So, never heard of them....but a quick observation...

Guy on the left looks like the dude on the cover of MAD magazine...or a cross between MAD guy and Sylvester Stallone.
Guy in the middle looks like Sean Penn
Guy on the right looks like Syd Barrett

:violin That would be a pretty damn weird band I guess.

Adam, I'm trying to track this album down in Dolby Surround but so far only came up with this AmazonUS listing [1994 release] which omits the Dolby Surround sticker. When was your copy released? https://www.amazon.com/Tropical-Cam...&keywords=Michael+Nesmith:+Tropical+Campire's

fredblue said:
this one is marked 1992, Ralph. Pacific Arts PAAD-5000, barcode = 075051500021 (ISBN 1-56111-224-0)

Hey Ralph, according to the Wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropical_Campfires
All versions of this album were released encoded in the Dolby Digital Pro-Logic surround sound format. It can be decoded into surround sound using any Pro-Logic multichannel receiver. Looks like this is on my TO ORDER LIST! :music

Alfred E. Neuman...how I remember seeing that face on the cover...that one eye being lower than the other really freaked me out:yikes

This album is great! Very nice surround mix. Very cool with Steven Wilson doing some vocal on on some tracks.

Great minds think alike (Fools never Differ) Just finished listening to Opeth - Pale Communion 5.1 Blu-ray, love the track Faith in Others.

Now listening to Mike Oldfield - Return to Ommadawn 5.1 DTS DVDV

Van Morrison -Moondance BLU-RAY

"Into the mystic " kinda puts me there alright . And I love the opening track....."And It Stoned Me "

Celtic Soul

fizzywiggs41 · Feb 26, 2018

The Quadio box set is definitely on my list .

But in the meantime I make do with these 2 copies.

FWIW ...I think Chicago -CTA , 2 , and VII are their top notch quads :smokin

..Still got the quad discs , too.

Chicago -2 blu-ray and Chicago IX Greatest blu-ray QUADRADISC Edition .

(Geez...Columbia Quadradiscs ???? Who'd a thought this could have occurred. ?....just amazingly unpredictable )

Sibelius Symphonies Nos 1-7 + Kullervo + The Oceanides + Pohjola's Daughter, Sir Colin Davis / LSO.
album number: LSO0675
This single Blu-ray pure audio disc contains 5 hours and 32 minutes of music. The Blu-ray sounds fabulous. The album also contains the same selections on 5 SACD discs.
