I understand that you have moved on and that Jakko is now wrapping up the mixing on ELP's Trilogy + Brain Salad Surgery. I believe a number of surround fans like me were also hoping the live material released as Pictures At An Exhibition and the Welcome Back My Friends package would be given the same surround treatment. Were these albums not part of the original ELP catalogue re-issue campaign?
As a quick sidebar, Welcome Back My Friends was actually released on Q8 tapes in 1974 (pitch flaws on every copy). It then appeared on the Rhino DVD-Audio new releases list in 2003, then quickly disappeared from view. Would be great if SONY was committed and someone was willing to mix it. A lot of grateful ELP quad fans would certainly rejoice.
