Listening to Now (In Surround) - Volume 2

[4-earredwonder]

hmm indeed.. can't find any info on that release, other than eBay listings and one on cdandlp.. something smells fishy (and i'm not talking about the contents of Baldrick's apple crumble!)

Perhaps D~V's elves are moonlighting, Adam. The discs arrived today, sealed and played flawlessly and the packaging is certainly legitimate but both discs are MADE in the EU* so until someone comes forward with a better explanation ....... the Jack the Ripperish mystery will continue, unabated.

*small markings on the rear packaging do suggest German made. The package has an almost rubbery texturized matte surface ..... VERY NICE indeed.

Is the surround any good?.

Mostly ambient but the sonics and music are absolutely incredible and worth adding to your collection .... if the price is right!

the DTS mix with slides.. brilliant!!!

Almost makes up for Tacet's fast paced Beethoven Pastoral!

I did elaborate on my above post that methinks they are German Made and did add that the almost rubbery texturized matte packaging is rather classy for a bootleg. Wonder if Germany has the ability to manufacture blu~spec RBCDs?

OTOH, Discogs lists country of origin for VIOLATOR as Russia which would suggest a bootlegged copy. The Mystery WIDENS, Comrade Blue!

This is seriously, some crazy, wild, excellent multi-channel local band stuff. Fidelity is excellent, great mix.

Please let me know how the blu-ray looks, and sounds! I've been looking hard at that one. Also, is it 5.1?
I had a page typed out and managed to delete it.
Quickly, it's DD 5.1, sounds about like many live concerts, good enough I suppose if not super.
The video is good and clear.
The guys still play well, especially Buck Dharma. Albert Bouchard comes back to play/sing his parts on AOF.
For 20 - 30 bucks a worthwhile purchase.

OK, I found this:
In celebration of the 40th anniversary of their widely celebrated album ‘Agents of Fortune’, Blue Öyster Cult performed the seminal album in its glorious entirety at an exclusive concert for the Audience Music Network on Monday April 18, 2016 at Red Studios in Hollywood, CA in front a lucky little audience of invited guests.
The performance was recorded by an army of cameramen for a DirectTV special, that is now being released on CD/DVD, Blu-Ray, and Vinyl. The intense creative vision of BÖC’s original core duo of vocalist and lead guitarist Donald “Buck Dharma” Roeser, and vocalist and rhythm guitarist Eric Bloom are complemented by Richie Castellano on guitar and keyboards, and the longtime rhythm section comprised of bass guitarist Kasim Sulton, and drummer Jules Radino. As a special guest, founding member Albert Bouchard appears on guitar and vocals on selected tracks, which was a real treat for longtime fans of the band

Completed the Barenaked Ladies surround trilogy

Barenaked Ladies Barenaked Ladies Are Me: Deluxe Edition 5.1

But this release comprises two albums, so is it a quadrilogy?

Another Silverline winner I've read about here

Blondie The Curse of Blondie

Enough QQers have commented on this disc to warrant a poll thread, no?

 

[Clement]

Here's another disc I purchased because of favorable blurbs on this very thread

Everlast White Trash Beautiful

Very enjoyable mix. Another release that I think would benefit from a poll thread. Stay Surrounded Comrades!

Do you like this mix better than the Blu-ray Baggie, or is it the same?

NICE! You reminded me about this one

Various ‎– Is It Rolling Bob? A Reggae Tribute To Bob Dylan Vol.1

I SO wish there were more Reggae in Surround! I R I E

This DTS Entertainment CD, IMO, and in the opinion of many, should've been included on the blu ray audio disc and would've sounded better in 96/24 resolution as it is WILDLY discrete unlike the BD~A which was AMBIENCE ONLY.

Yeah I have them both, just haven't sat down to compare yet.
