Genesis on SACD soon
Never try to teach a pig to sing. It wastes time, and it annoys the pig.
| Genesis are signed with Virgin in the UK and Europe, and that label has released hi-res in SACD, I think (though I could be wrong). |
Virgin has released at least 1 album I am aware of.

| We can now confirm that "The Lamb.... SACD remaster" will be released on 18th April 2005. Engineer Nick Davis has gone to extreme lengths to find, sort and remix the new version from the original Lamb 24 track tapes. The SACD version will come with a new 5.1 SACD mix and a new CD stereo mix. |

Now let's see if they can do all the other albums as well.
This one took a while...

Comments from Nick Davis, the project's engineer, on the delayed SACD release....
"nothing to do with me-pretty depressing news though.
from what i can gather it is to do with the fact that the platinum collection and video show dvd have gone so far back in the usa that it would be too close for a release in april. also there is the possibility of putting the original slide show on the dvda and this will take time to sort out- so not all bad news."

I hate lame record company excuses like this. If all three of these came out the same day fans are still gonna buy 'em. It's not like we've been flooded with Genesis product lately...
Noticed the date of post at genesis-music.com for the delay was/is March 17th??
| Nick Davis has completed work on the 5.1 SACD re-mix of Foxtrot and is currently working out in France. On his return he will begin work on another album in the Genesis back catalogue. Which album has yet to be decided. News when we get it. Release dates for the SACD versions of The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, Nursery Cryme and Foxtrot have not yet been sent. The re-mixes await the final approval of all concerned in their original recording and, when received, dates for their release will be set. |

why they didn't do it front he beginning is what i don't understand - having to re-mix someone else's work is a waste of time+effort=money

What's the band waiting for regarding unleashing these SACDs/DualDiscs?

"Trespass"
"Nursery Cryme"
"Foxtrot"
"Selling England By The Pound"
"The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway"
"Wind And Wuthering"
Any word on "A Trick Of The Tail" (seems to have been skipped)??
Does Nick Davis enjoy torturing the fans with these posts that lead to no product???

Maybe we'll get a big box set of these eventually, similar to the recent "Brick" which collected surround versions of the Talking Heads' studio catalog?? One can only hope...
^The European releases (if they ever get out) will likely be SACD (Dire Straits--Brothers in Arms was an SACD release in Europe and Canada while it was a DualDisc in the US) so you will likely have that as a fallback.

| A Trick of the Tail was the first one done after Lamb, IIRC. |
Thanks, I figured it was done, but just couldn't find a reference to it.
I want these NOW!!!
| (Nick) Davis commented in the forum of the official Genesis site that he suspected that the newly reissued and remixed Genesis back catalog may be released all at once and may coincide with another project. While this was a vague sentiment, one would suspect that he is referring to the much talked-about possibility of a Genesis reunion concert or tour. |
