Right. Live in NY is not mixed like a live album. If you want the first two albums in 5.1 it's a good option.Saw this post with excitement and had my hopes dashed when seeing it's just got the same 5.1 I already have. Like Duncan I have never been very keen on live albums compared to studio albums but since no 5.1 of the first 2 albums I bought "Blackfield Live in New York" and I was pleasantly surprised by this release and have listened to it quite a bit.
I sure do enjoy it, with or without video.Live In NYC is one of the best live concert 5.1 mixes ever, IMO.
i believe its waiting for a release window, Steven has a new album coming out he has just finished Porcupine Tree tour etc....I wish they’d do an expansive No-Man box!! I do like Blackfield, but that last album was just horrible, at least they left that one out. I may go for this, despite having everything but the live one.
Same here. I have Blackfield IV and NYC in surround. If he had remixed at least I and II (my favourites) I would have bought the box without any doubt. But I see no reason to buy the box.I've already got Blackfield IV on DVD-A & V on BDA, I'm not that keen on live albums, so if there had been earlier releases in surround I'd have bought it, as is I'm skipping this one.
My Oppo 205 also won't play it. States all regions on Amazon but coded Region B.Is anyone else not able to play the bluray. It has the abc stamp on the disc but my sony ubp-x800m2 tells me I need a region b player to play the disc. Bummer.
According to you profile, you live in the Netherlands and the Blu-ray is region B (which includes Europe), so evidently you wouldn't have any problem playing it. The members having issues with the disc seem to be in the United States (region A).My Blu ray plays fine! Simple menu.
I just found the same issue and sent Burning Shed an email. They're usually quick to reply. Have you heard anything?Just sent this email to Burning Shed:
I respectfully request that this email and the attached photos be forwarded to the Kscope record label.
I just received the new Blackfield set “An Accident of Stars” and discovered a major problem with the Blu-Ray.
The disc itself is labeled as an all-region Blu-Ray (one that will play in A, B, and C region players.)
However, when playing the disc in my Blu-Ray player (here in North America, Region A) this text appears on the screen “This Blu-ray Disc will play back on region B players only” and I am unable to play the disc!
I respectfully request that the Kscope record label send me a replacement Blu-ray Disc, one that will play in my Blu-Ray players here in North America.
