Pretty sweet to get the original quad mix AND a new Steven Wilson 5.1 mix.

We are really getting surrounded by releases this year. Hard to believe when you stop and think about it.

I will buy from Burning Shed even if I have to pay a little more. Can't beat their customer service in case there is a snafu with this like TAAB.

Is anyone else surprised that with four discs, including two DVDs, they aren't giving us lossless surround? Not a huge deal, but atypical (unprecedented?) for a Steven Wilson project. (I'm not suggesting that this was Wilson's decision; it could well be the label.)

 

[Robert van Diggele]

Most likely the label's decision. thick as a Brick and A Passion Play were also dvd-v's.

Label for sure as all Steven's own band releases have been (lossless Dvd Audio or Bluray), worst of label decisions was Steven's remix of Caravan which came out as DD only.

 

[Eclectic]

Oops, my mistake. Not "unprecedented"

 

[Plan9]

Really not Steven's decision not to include lossless. He certainly would if he could.

Quite right! Not sure if it's just Ian Anderson or more Chrysalis/ Parlophone that has such an allegiance to Ray Shulman as the authoring person for these Jethro Tull releases.
Does he really do a bad job on these? No not really. As a matter of fact, I liked his work particularly on "A Passion Play" and even "Thick as a Brick" but the fact is if you're not going to have some kind of substantial video component, it really should be DVD-A, not DVD-V, and that's where these releases miss the boat...
Maybe one day when Warner goes head first into Blu-Ray audio and surround, then we will get these as full lossless but for now I will enjoy them as they are. Despite being DVD-V, they are far and away very high quality products.
