Coming in August...."Toto IV" on multichannel hybrid SACD w/ bonus tracks in 7" mini LP packaging

[4-earredwonder]

As far as I know, folks are still waiting for Santana III, which came out in October, to be available here from any of the usual importers.

Ironically, ImportCD/Deep Discount which always carried those SONY Japan SACDs does NOT anymore but they do stock all those Universal Hong Kong Stereo SACDs including the latest ones.

Strange, indeed!

Air parcels from Japan to the US have resumed, but I imagine there will be quite a large bottleneck to clear (if that's the means which US importers are using).

Service availability by country - Japan Post

Ah…that might explain it

FedEx from Japan to the West Coast of the U.S. is fast! My order with this release was shipped on Monday and is now in Oakland, CA. Should be here by the end of the week.

Just got mine on the east coast (via fedex).

For the exorbitant and wasteful sum of $4.62, delivered to my door by Fed Ex rather than my mailbox by DHL.
Because, dammit, I'm worth it!

Seems to be an authoring error on Track 8.
Song title shows as Toto, rather than We Made It.

Track 6 typo "Aeraid Of Love."

I would have preferred "Air Raid of Love"

In fact I'll change mine for exactly that!

thanks for the pics and info!
curious if the 5.1 on the new release is the same mix, mastering and duration as the MultiCh on the old SACD?

 

[Lord British]

Only one copy left according to CDJapan. Grab n' Go!

 

[Mackspower]

Got mine yesterday. Hoping to find time and listen to it today.

Also, thumbs-up for the MQA love here. I haven't bought a bad MQA disc yet.
