Listening to Now (In Surround) - Volume 2

[edisonbaggins]

Carl Neilson - London Symphony Orchestra - Symphonies 1-6 - LSO Live
All six symphonies on one Blu-ray! Plus, redundantly on 3 SACDs. Amazing they could afford to do this.
Their composer packages are very reasonably priced.

Peter Cincotti - Live in New York - DTS 5.1 Monster SuperDisc

 

[edisonbaggins]

Sibelius - Symphonies 1-7 - BD DTS HD MA 5.1 - LSO Live
All seven symphonies on one blu-ray! Plus redundant SACDs.
I don't even know who this guy is! Hahaha

fingers crossed DV can work their magic on the Arista Quads!! :upthumb

meantime CD-4 LPs of Back To Back are still available on the aftermarket ready and waiting to be snapped up and demodulated.. maybe the odd copy of it on Q8 too but i've yet to find one the last 6-7 months of snooping online for the tape it seems to be less common than its CD-4 equivalent!

Considering Arista is part of the SONY/BMG stable .....this should not be a major hurdle.




It was one of those quad releases I just passed on, at the time. Coulda woulda shoulda I suppose, but now it's in DV'S earshot I figure.

Listened to this disc the other nite. Usually I'll listen to half a disc through and change up but occasionally I run it through. I recommend you do the same (whole disc through, that is) for this title.

His time with Frank Zappa must have paid off , because it sounds very Zappaesque indeed .

So if you like music that moves, and great surround ,and Zappa's catalogue of entrées.......then you'll appreciate-

"TOMMY THE CAT" :worthy and with Tom Waits on vocals, no less.

Didn't know Tom Waits was on this disc....oddly, I purchased my first Tom Waits a few weeks ago....but it's vinyl. It sounds awesome, he's a freak. In a good way that is...

Not extremely discrete like most concerts, but this thing looks and sounds fantastic for 25 years ago..

Frank Zappa-Quadiophiliac DVD-A

All 3 Masons from D-V would be phenomenal.

I have yet to hear the self-titled in quad, but I really enjoy "It's Like You Never Left" & "Split Coconut".

they're all great but the self-titled's my favourite of the 3, its an excellent Quad mix.

there were 2 or 3 SFA 5.1 DVD's I think? Rings Around The World and Phantom Power were two of them off the top of my noggin :violin

Cool! Time to start my research... do you remember them as having good surround mixes? ("Love Kraft" is a "Flaming Lips"-caliber mix... excellent, discrete and super-active)

SFA-Lovecraft

I'd say we need everything by Waits in surround.....but then I don't know just how much it might improve his tunze.It's the poetic tomes that slay me.

First album that convinced me of his freaky-genius was listening to (in surround dolby fwiw) his film : BIG TIME .via my Tate.

Concert film from 88/89 and it's incredible btw. Hoping it will get reissued in Digital Surround one day soon .










Tom Waits.....recommended vinyl intro....would be Swordfishtrombones...and ..Rain Dogs:upthumb
("because I am a rain dog to..)

 

[fizzywiggs41]

Gave this "unmarked" quad QS disc a spin the other night .


Not bad. Recorded in a smoky dimly lit nightclub no doubt.


Dave Leibman-Sweet Hands on A&M Horizon









And take note : there were a few others secretly encoded at this time on that label......some are listed inside the jacket.
