Def Leppard 'Pyromania' - Atmos version (4CD/Blu-Ray set with Giles Martin Dolby Atmos mix coming in April!)

[fetchmybeer]

This is one of those albums I wish they'd remix with the original drum sounds and not the supplemented electronic crap ones that ruined so many recordings in the 80s. Well, didn't ruin them, but made them outdated in pretty short order. This was before Rick lost his arm, so I gotta think the real drum sounds exist somewhere unless he played all the tracks on an electronic kit.

I have both the original press of High N Dry and the re-release after Pyro made it big and they wanted to release Me and My Wine. It's striking after listening to the masterpiece that is High N Dry when Me and My Wine comes on and has those awful electronic drums.

Cheapest so far, in the UK. £69.99

I'm not paying £70 for one album. It's a notch down from Pink Floyd pricing but it's still too much. Everything I want will fit on one blu ray, it doesn't need a boxset.

Aye, each to their own

I agree but.....

Who knows? There may be a stand alone BR down the road, just like Pink Floyd.

Now we are talking!

Except that's before any import costs to UK etc. And now it redirects me back to Amazon UK, half an hour ago it didn't.

 

[dobyblue]

it’s the referral link
If you copy the link and paste it then remove everything after the ASIN, it won’t redirect

It's a better price. But I really don't want all the all 'bloat'!

I believe, and I may be wrong, that it’s all programmed drum machine. Probably the LinnDrum?

This was my favorite album when I was fifteen… but Giles’ mixes tend to be hit or miss for me. I’m interested in the 5.1 mix. Has anyone heard the 5.1 mix yet?

OK, I just pre-ordered from importCD, using the pay in 4 plan with Paypal. No interest, had to pay $20 today. Then, 3 more payments of $20 every half month.

How does it manage to be cheaper in the US than in the UK? It has to be imported to the US, with shipping and import duty to pay.

The US subsidizes Def Leppard releases specifically. It's part of the tax code.

 

[dobyblue]

With all the additional costs Amazon adds, I’m going to wait to see what it shows up as on Juno UK

That was part of the 28th Amendment.... the right to own Def Leppard albums at an amount cheaper than in any other country. We had a choice between subsidized pharmaceuticals or subsidized Def Leppard albums.
Like that's a choice.

Edit: $73 = 67 Euros.

59 Euros at Amazon France so it isn't cheaper here.

LOL! Amazon US coming in at $99. So, importCD for the win. lmao
