Shakedown has been in heavy rotation in my house since its' release in '78. At least one spin a year.
Founding member of Spirit. Ferguson's poppiest solo project, yet it works! With Szymczyk producing and Joe Walsh on guitar, how could it not work? Title track got some FM play here in Chicago.
My heaviest listening on this was through the Marantz Vari-matrix full clockwise (6 PM position). CD has been my most played since it hit 10-ish years ago.
Own most of Olivia's stuff. Vinyl and CD's. Both Laser Disc and 1/2 speed LP of Physical are great. Played 1/2 speed through Denon in both matrix and 5ch stereo modes.
IMHO, surround synthesis is the way I choose to listen to 2ch sources. I much prefer it over hall effect synthesis.
Have owned Boston (s/t) on LP, 1/2 speed LP, CD & 2ch SACD. Played all but SACD though Marantz Vari-Matrix. Most SACD spins have been through Denon matrix and Sony SQD-2020 synthesis modes.
ELO Discovery owned on LP, 1/2 speed LP and early Japan CD. Most spins though Marantz Vari matrix (full clockwise) and B&K 5ch stereo mode. Nice rears...
Try Lee Michaels' 3rd LP (s/t) in basic (Dynaco) matrix. It comes alive. Recommended by Audio, High Fidelity or Stereo Review, don't remember which.
