Jon: What exactly do you not like about the October Road SACD? I don't own it yet, but it's on my list. I have JT on SACD, but i haven't had a chance to listen to it yet.JonUrban said:I hope these are done like Hourglass and JT, and not like October Road. In either case, I be in line to get them both...

JonUrban said:Just got one (Dad), could not find the other at BB. Will crank it up soon.
JonUrban said:Brian,
You again are correct, and nice review. I have checked out the surround mix on "Dad" and it is pretty nice. There is not much exclusive to the rears, except for James' spoken intro into "Stand and Fight", but the center solo lead vocal is nice, as it allows the harmony backgrounds and instruments to appear fuller and more exposed.
It is odd that J.D. Southers vocal on "Her Town Too" is in the "phantom center". It actually creates a strange presentation!
Since I prefer this album to Flag, I am glad that this is the one BB has. I will get the other when I run into it.
