This one is really interesting, it almost feels like it was yanked out of the engineer's hands prior to completion. There are some cool moments (you can really hear the backing vocals in the rear speakers throughout "Monday Morning"), but others that feel like obvious mistakes. The lead guitar in "I'm So Afraid" is buried in the center speaker when it should be blasting at you. "Blue Letter" just sounds dead, devoid of any excitement. Sonics are rather poor as well, as if they used an inferior copy of the multitrack. There's a lot more tape hiss in "Warm Ways" and "Rhiannon" than I recall from either the original stereo or 5.1 remix.
wish Apple would say who's mixing this stuff.. i wonder whether Ken Caillat is at all involved or consulted in the creation of any of these FM Atmos mixes? feels unlikely..
Doubtful, as Caillat seems to like introducing previously-unused instrumentation in his 5.1's and these new Atmos mixes more closely match the original stereo versions.
I'm wondering if they were mixed with a tilt more towards headphones; could be why they don't sound that great on an external speaker system. Just purely conjecture on my part, but could be one possibility
Well I will be the first ( and maybe only) to go on the record that I really liked it.

Wow, I would have guessed Stevie was involved as Lindsey's parts are often buried and/or slathered with echo
