Over at the Progressive Ears website, there is a discussion about the new reissue of Mike Oldfield's "Incantations." I can't seem to link directly to the thread but there is a mention of the Wikipedia article about the album which says:
"Unlike the first three re-issues in the campaign, there is no surround mix of the album on the DVD, only of the five remixed edits on the 'bonus' CD. Oldfield explained during an interview for BBC Radio 6 that this was due to the original multi-track tapes for the album had either been badly deteriorated or lost over the last three decades."
So, no new stereo remix and no full surround mix. And the remaster of Part 4 has a glitch.
I hope someone here will buy this and review the fragments that are mixed in 5.1 so I can decide whether or not to buy this.
