It's one of my "must have" discs.

The original CD is worth owning, too, especially since the stereo mix is only in Dolby Digital on the DVD-A (so dumb!). It's a reference you'll still find in professional studios today.
Clement, you’re killing me!

Now you're killing me! LOVE it! When i taught high school Engl-ish, i would CRANK "School's Out" . . . on the first day of school! The kids would just stare incredulously!
You’re a cruel man!
If you’re ever in Phoenix you’re gonna have to stop at the Musical Instrument Museum.
My parents are in assisted living in Sun City. I visit them 4-6 times a year! I'll check it out next time i'm out there! Stay Surrounded, Comrade!
Ponta Box - Multi Channel Sound Best (DVD-A, 5.1 MLP 24/96, VIAJ-60003)
Is this as discrete as some of Ponta's quad offerings? Maybe not. Is this still a discrete 5.1 mix? Hell yes! As fun as I was hoping it would be.

Further comments: it's what I would describe as a sensible mix. Some songs have sparse elements, so they're naturally low in rear activity. However, whenever there are additional elements, boy oh boy does it use the rear soundfield.
Interesting they didn't go for any extra's, such as DVD compatibility back then. Way it was, sometimes.
There is actually a music video extra on the DVD-Video side of the disc...however this disc is clearly designed to only be used in DVD-Audio players, as there's no way to get to it apart from the menu on the DVD-Audio side.
T-Square plus - Truth 21century (5.1 SACD, VRGL-8002)
Very active surround mix, very dynamic. However, the stereo layer is bricked to hell and back, which doesn't give a good sign for any of the 50 million stereo T-Square discs released after this one...
Regardless, super fun takes on classic T-Square tracks. Enjoying Megalith especially.

Yeah links can be made from the DVDA side. Over my pay grade/tools though.

Robin Trower B.O.S.'s in Atmos. For how many times total now I can not count. Good med grade to accompany, good beverage, good sound. Made for each other.
I love this album, so much.
Went to see my Doc yesterday. He suggested I smoke more pot for pain relief. I reluctantly said, well OK Doc.
