New Stones album announced, coming in September - Hackney Diamonds (CD + Atmos Blu-Ray Box Set)

[fizzywiggs41]

Thought as much...they've not got a good track record in releasing their music in Dolby Atmos.

!!

I don't know about that...I think they did a surprisingly good mix on Goats Head.
At least to my ears.
And although there was no 5.1 separate mix the Atmos down mixes to 5.0 for me with no problems.

I just wish they would continue in surround with their older Catalogue....ummm say Sticky Fingers , anyone ?

or start with "Beggars Banquet" and work their way up.

Purchased from SDE. I like to reward them for their outstanding releases. New Stones. Wow. Whoda thunk?

For those in the UK, I've seen the cd/blu ray version on pre sale at Rarewaves for "only" £42.02, and there is a 10% discount code RWSEPT10 for purchases made by the end of the weekend.

https://www.rarewaves.com/collections/all/products/0602458122541-hackney-diamonds
Incidentally Rarewaves also has the forthcoming Zappa Over Nite Sensation set on pre sale for £68.79 (again less the 10%), which is pretty good.

Me too (well its in my basket, waiting for my decision as to whether or not to add Over Nite Sensation too!!). I also see that Rarewaves has the Prince Diamonds and Pearls bluray for £17.94, which is also the cheapest I've seen that for so far. Mmm, decisions decisions....

I paid £63 via the Zappa store including postage and VAT

Prince I bought off Amazon

I would certainly be buying those two as well, if I hadn't already.

Well I've pre ordered The Stones, the Zappa and the Prince, and I've thrown in Dark Side (atmos bluray) and Richard Wright's Wet Dream for good measure, all with 10% off! It's not like September is going to be expensive for surround anyway is it!!

That's what we like, a nice little discount to ease us gently into the autumn of our passion.
My wallet has already shown me a yellow card
My problem is I've had to move my stereo CD's out of the man cave to make room for this wonderful avalanche of surround releases we are getting this year!!
It really is a fantastic time to be into our little pastime.
Although I need a Gos spreadsheet to remind me of what, where and whom

I guarantee people would complain atmos mixes of those albums - they can never live up to what people assume/wish they could be.

The multichannel content of the GHS Atmos is plenty active and interesting, to me.
It's the gutlessness that caused me to return the set to Amazon as defective. It's as though the bass is out of phase. A/B with the stereo, which has LOADS of rocking punch. It disappears with the Atmos mix.

Cheapest I've found here in US is Rolling Stones official store. Plus "WELCOME10" gives 10% off. My total with sales tax and shipping came to $62.51.

Beautiful cover , but I would love it more if they mixed it in 5.0.

Which of course they failed to do back in 2003 with all of the DSD remastered.

For me it's long overdue for a surround mix , also any of the other SACD reissued would be pleasant.
Hoping Giles Martin has one on his to do in Atmos list.

Does anyone know if there's a place cheaper for the CD plus Blu-ray then the stone store? If it weren't for the tax and shipping at cheapest making it up to meet 70 for me which just feels silly for a CD in Blu-ray not counting the mini booklet which doesn't do much for me I would order there but I see other countries have their own Amazon which sometimes is a lot cheaper although not for me because of the import shipping. Is the US store really the only place to get it for a US resident cheapest or is there somewhere else I'm just not seeing Thank you for any help

The Stones store is the cheapest I've found so far and with WELCOME10 I got 10% off.
