October 2023 D-V SACD Releases (Isley Bros, O’Jays, Enoch Light, Tony Mottola, Henry Mancini)

[quicksrt]

Bet that SONY Japan will eventually release more Aerosmith and especially those Johnny/Edgar Winter titles on QUAD SACD in their special 7" packaging [deluxe]!

I'd bet you Sony are all done with Aerosmith right about at this point.

And not sure if J&E Winter were very hot in Japan or still are. But I would love to get two albums from each of the two at least. Three is ideal. But since they have sat unissued this long I kind of think labels are a bit shy with full-on support there. Something is wrong with this picture. And maybe 360 lossy is all we will ever see?

In more ways than one.

The entire Aerosmith catalog moved to UMG last year.

Looks like my 5 titles I ordered from new batch are set to arrive this Thursday. Pretty fast honestly.

I was just hoping that since Vocalion released the Rick Derringer 2fer that they had an "in" since that's all the same label/musicians/timeframe.
Bummer on UMG and Aerosmith though.

They are very fast - my Isley Brothers SACD was shipped 8 minutes after placing the order !!!

All EIGHT D~V Titles arrived today from the Wizard of Watford in PLUPERFECT CONDITION. Not a cracked case in the bunch. I also added two original Dutton Epoch Multi~CH Classical titles.

I guess GOS' theory of ordering in even numbers paid off .......

Let the massive all day Listening Session COMMENCE!

I think my shipment got here faster than any other D-V shipment. Somehow the tracking never even got into the USPS system, so it was quite a surprise to see it on the porch.

Unfortunately, the center hub thingy on the two-disc sets is really, really, really tight, so my first attempt to remove the second Mancini disc wound up cracking it all the way from the center to the edge.

Im always afraid of doing this. Tight hubs scare me. Except in other activities......

I hate hearing about that sort of thing; I really wish the industry standard were those 'MFSL LIFT-LOCK' type cases. I believe I broke a disc in this manner a couple years ago, but don't remember what it was, and always a fear it with the tighter ones for sure!

Hopefully D-V will replace it for you?

Yeah, those are fantastic!

I emailed them my sob story as soon as it happened but haven't heard back.

I love those type of cases. I have four Firesign Theatre disc's in those cases.
They open so smoothly...easy to lift out your disc.....they almost place it in the player.

BTW ,

I suppose , The Isley Brothers-The Heat Is On SACD...contains an SQ Encoded stereo layer ???
Or what ??

 

[GOS]

Boo! Mine said out for delivery today....yet they never showed up.

Simon got back to me and is sending a replacement. He asked if I wanted anything else, which was as good an excuse as any to order a couple more!

And, still didn't arrive today...even though they are sitting in local post office. Not sure what that means...

It means there are a bunch of postmen jamming out to GOS' quads in the back room of the post office on their quad system.

I shall cast no aspersions on the good folks of the USPS (since I worked there a few years as an IT contractor. )

My 5 arrived today....I didn't follow GOS's Law.......by accident. They all arrived in perfect condition.

 

[jefe1]

I should have 3 being delivered today
If they arrive unbroken it will be proof Gos's Law has been repealed....
