As a very much Prog & Blues Rock fan I would have agreed, but ................. I saw both Tears For Fears and Talk Talk play in the 80's and they were very good live, so I'm in on this one! Nick Beggs was in Kajagoogoo (aaaargh :howl) an album of whose I bought for my sister for Xmas, and look at the amazing stuff he is involved in now.
agreed, i have seen them a few times live and was very impressed.
most of the comments about them being too 80's are from folks that just surface listen (or radio listeners). get deep into one of their cds and it is clear there is a lot of prog rock influence (with an 80s influence). most people under rate them as a band, again attributed to the 80's sound.
It brilliant :woopie, what a year, :banana: , if I could only ignore the size of the credit card bill which is heading my way next month! :yikes

exactly! getting so much great music takes the sting out of postponing... nice just knowing the improvement is out there...and gotta have some upgrade to look forward to...that is..that won't cost me a kidney donation!
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned anything about "The Working Hour" yet.
Not only is it THE standout track on the album for me, but it's also become one of my favorite songs of the entire 1980s! It's THAT good!
If it sounds half as good in surround as it does in stereo, then I can't say "Shut up and take my money" fast enough!

Snood need links to Order NOW!!!!!
It does. You will. In time.
I was struck by the new interview with album producer Chis Hughes about how Songs From The Big Chair came together. It's nothing like I thought, you might be surprised as much as I was. There are lots of other extras...
The surround mix is great and such a pleasant surprise in so many ways.
No brainier - very satisfying package!

And it was also the opening and closing theme for Saturday Night Live alumnus Dennis Miller's great Dennis Miller Live HBO show.

Uh no.
If you can't hear the difference between Bryan Adams and Tears for Fears (melodic, rhythmic, compositional, lyrical, arrangement, production, vision, vocals, etc, etc), you are not really trying. A humongous artistic delta between the two.
Bryan Adams is pretty much boring, something that Tears for Fears has never been accused of.
One of the few 80's bands that I thought had great talent at the time, though they did dwell on their neurosis I will be ordering pronto.
I will be ordering pronto.
Absolutely stoked!!

Don't think the statement was an actual comparison of the music. More so the general music vibe of music in the mid 80's which to me was ruled by synth pop and mid-tempo rockers.
I am torn by these two releases. I have both from back in the day but I tired of them of them pretty quickly. To me Songs From the Big Chair is just sooooo dated. Big, processed, manufactured music. Aside from "thriller", this is pretty much one of the last "Iconic" 80's album I would have dreamed of hearing.
Come on Steve - stop teasing me! You keep on making brilliant 5.1 mixes for stuff that is just outside my tastes. Give me something in my sweet spot from the 80's!
Flesh & Blood - Roxy Music / Anything Marillion or Fish / Asia's 1st album / New Order / Police / Dire Straits / Gabriel oh the list could go on and on.

The box set shot. I don't see anything specifically relating to DVDA or Blu-Ray in the picture, but they must be coming in this set (or outside of it).
The Amazon and jpc.de listing show a 6 cd set, almost certain the hi res disc is included.

The beta testers received DVD-A discs to test, so DVD-A is going to available somewhere, I would assume in the box. Neil will have to chime in to verify, but I can assure you there will be a real DVD-A somewhere. There was also a DVD-V with TV appearances and stuff on it. So these must have been targeted for the deluxe box set shown above
