First listen

I already had that one. These 3 turned up this morning in the UK from WOWHD after spending some time in Chicago, the Clapton is the only one I've not heard before.

 

[marpow]

Ralphie mentioned djabe, so I thought of Hackett, listening now 2017's 5.1 The Night Siren.

 

[marpow]

Now, for my last listen of the morning before I go on my walk. Djabe and Hackett 2019's Back To Sardinia 5.1.

Oh My Goodness! This one sounds absolutely phenomenal through the SM v.2. And somehow, i scored an SQ Quadraphonic LP that may have been played once! Sounds pristine! The songs are top shelf and the mix is SO discrete and engaging. Somehow, i can't find a poll thread for this one. I think it deserves one. And a physical digital release – Michael J. Dutton? Highly recommended!

I similarly have it as a 24k Gold CD and have been aching for years to see a proper 4.0 hi res release.......Pure Genius, as far as I'm concerned!

Doubtful, and not in Mark Anderson's Quad Discography as for CD's etc.

May be I should go on Discogs and buy an SQ LP...... what normally happens then, is that sometime later its released as a Quad SACD (Sony, Dutton-Vocalion or as sadly in the past on Audio Fidelity)

Then that would be a most worthy sacrificial hit in benefit for the rest of us Dunc.!

Hope so too, Clement as Minnie Riperton's PERFECT ANGEL and Janis Ian's BETWEEN THE LINES are IMO, exceptional candidates for the D~V SACD treatment, HANDS DOWN!

I got another copy of this Quad, so i could display front and back sides of the cover. Gives me an excuse to listen again. REALLY enjoy this album and the mix!

Such a pity Rhymin' Simon is no longer synonymous with Surround, Clem. Such wonderful albums!
