KISS "Destroyer" Box Set with Blu-Ray (Steven Wilson 5.1 & Dolby Atmos mixes out soon!)

[Marplot]

I can't tell from the way it is listed, but I think that this version is in multi-channel on the BR
For the new acoustic mix of "Beth", the original recorded acoustic guitar track was taken from the analog multi-tracks and has now been fully restored and mixed with the original piano, vocal and synthesizer tracks

It is finally showing up other places.

Another $25 or so and I may be able to see my way to buying this, although I will still be worried that it doesn't end up heavily discounted in the future.

Very cool, ordered!

It’s a bit on the pricey side. However, if this was, say, a Cheap Trick Box set of “In Color,” it would be an authentic buy. So, I get it.

If I buy this, I’ll wait until about Christmas (or January), for any sales. One could see a bunch of KISS fans buying this as a collector’s item, unaware of the surround. And since folks will buy for the new mix, hopefully they’ll make enough so everyone can get one at a reasonable price.

Same here, but I'll take a chance and hope for a Guns 'n Roses Appetite type discounting situation...

They need to go sub $50 for me...

TWO SANE men after my own ❤ BTW, My 'bargain' G&R boxset is still unopened.

No, the person that decided how many of the Uber Boxes to produce is in trouble. Obviously grossly over estimated the demand.

I feel sorry for anyone who bought one of those Uber Boxes at the original MSRP.

For ALL we know, MM, that unopened box could contain a gun and a bunch of dead roses!

It wouldn’t be that heavy if it were….maybe I got lucky and it’s GOLD BULLION BARS!!

Or a live or dead cat.

Edit: Glad someone got the joke. Thanks Duncan!

Didn't SW remix Made in Japan and it's just rotting?!
Probably gonna show up on Apple Music any day now!!!

I wonder how that would sound, if SW would do a 4-corner quad with a center anchor on a live album? I know he would not simply do an ambiance in the rears type mix. But what would he do?

Why wouldn’t he do an audience/ambiance mix? That they way 99.999% of people hear live music.

Live music mixes with discrete instruments in the rears sound silly IMO.

Unless the show was done multi-channel I agree

That’s what they said about classical recordings as well.

Listen to ABB Fillmore East if you have yet to hear it.

Because he’s Steven Wilson and has his own way of doing things.

What do you mean by “the show was done multi-channel”? Do you mean it had a quad sound system and was utilized as such? Very, very few groups did this - and I highly doubt Deep Purple was one of them. But I could be wrong.

I guess if a band’s music or live performances lend themselves to a discrete quad/surround mix, I suppose it might not be awful. But a band like Deep Purple and the album Made In Japan doesn’t, IMO.
