Can you help me understand this post? Looks like a for sale ad but there is no price, and the info contained is copy pasted.

Check out my post #65 on this thread for some pre order prices...
Ultimately I’m thrilled to see this news.
Really, the thing that concerns me most is a Bob Clearmountain mix. I do, overall, consider him one of the best Surround engineers; but lately he’s had a penchant of being heavy handed in the center channel.
Maybe, that’s due to the influence of sound bars or something, I really don’t know, but I feel he knows better than that in creating a truly great surround mix.

So things like popupmarket.com and deep discounts (links opened on post 65)
Are all reliable places?
There is a concert poster in the set, The Stones at Cardiff Castle (Green Dragon) that show never happened. Very expensive original poster, I got it in late 80's when it was significantly cheaper, still have it. There was a big stash found as they where never distributed.
Here is info.

Yes POPMARKET is legit...it carries mostly vinyl...and the other sites are all reliable
I actually prefer Clearmountain's Big Pink 5.1 to the The Band. A lot of people seem to discount it because the "The Weight" has a fairly uninteresting surround mix, but that song has a very basic arrangement and was likely recorded on 4-track. The rest of the songs are really good! "We Can Talk" in particular is amazing with the three vocalists isolated in different speakers. "To Kingdom Come", "Caledonia Mission", and "This Wheel's On Fire" also have really active, well-balanced surround mixes.
I love aggressive/discrete surround mixes, but The Band 5.1 has such extreme channel separation that it often sounds like you're listening to isolated multitracks rather than a full-realized mix. It's an interesting approach, but I find the album can sound kind of "un-glued" at times and overall less cohesive than the original stereo mix. I wish he'd let some sounds (drums in particular) blend into multiple speakers rather than locking them in one channel. Some songs also seem to be more of a 'triphonic' surround mix rather than 5.1 as the entire front stage is relegated to the center channel, with the front channels just carrying ambience from the center.
If you want to hear how good a surround mixer Bob Clearmountain is, check out Roxy Music's Avalon, Bob Marley's Legend, and Mary Fahl's From The Dark Side Of The Moon.
IMO Bob didn't get as many "significant" opportunities/jobs as ES did...not saying why...because I really don't know...but more work with high profile bands probably would have led to more recognition....if you ask people that work in the industry...I'm sure Bob would be in their top 5...
Bob Clearmountain has done some great work.
Unfortunately they have "Brussels Affair" listed as CD #3.
It would have been superb to have it included on the Blu-ray.
Small point, Big Pink is the debut album.
We were listening to it in 68 alongside Beggars Banquet.
The Band came out in 69, we heard it along with Let It Bleed.
Not my favorite Stones album but a good one. So I will be ordering. Overpriced? Maybe, I guess that depends on the mix for me. Still good news! As others have said, there may not be many more physical media releases as the market dwindles even more. And...it's the Rolling Stones! So, yes, give us Sticky Fingers and Let it Bleed next. I'm in!
I realize that it is listed on the CD...BUT...on some other releases(not the Stones)all the songs are included on the Blu Ray(hi rez...not surround)..but if it doesn't happen...well at least Pupster will be able to sleep at night
Classic....
He’s been doing his own “personal” surround mixes of most of his stereo assignments for a long while, it would be interesting
to hear how he mixes surround for his own enjoyment.My favorite Clearmountain work:
Bryan Ferry - Boys & Girls 5.1 SACD.
Both for content & mix.

The Mary Fahl album was one of those 'personal' mixes that had been shelved since 2006.
And that’s a winner! So what do you think the reason is that he’s gone so heavy handed to the ”Dark Side of Chucky” Jonathan?
God in heaven please hear my prayers..
