Peter Gabriel UP Sacd arrived today!
Recieved my copy of PG's Up SACD today from cc.com.
All I can say is it is excellent! The Multi-Channel mix is fantastic. The songs have new life and breathe like no cd can muster.
Wait till you turn up "Growing Up" on your Sacd player. Wow!
This will be the new demo sacd for friends

I was just about to ask when this will come out. I'm almost done collecting the other SACDs (just Passion and Us left). Then I'll get this and blast it to my roommates' and neighbors' ire.
Sweet.

Received mine yesterday. Overall I was quite happy with the multichannel mix after my initial listening session. The mix generally suits the music well, without anything distracting or out of place. After I listen to it some more, I will post some more thoughts.

I have it too, but the music simply hasn't grabbed me yet outside of "Blue Sky"
searching for that elusive, "perfect" sound.

Is the entire PG SACD catalog now out? The only ones I've been able to find are "Shaking The Tree", "Passion" & "So".

Yes, the entire catalog is now out on SACD. Other then Up which is multichannel and Hybrid, the rest are only stereo single layer discs in the US (Hybrids overseas).

Does anyone know if there are any plans to release "Secret World Live" on SACD? (I don't think this is currently available...I haven't been able to find it anywhere).
I can't wait to go home and check out the multi-channel version of UP!!
Thanks,
Mark

John,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I don't even have the CD yet, but you have me interested.
Mark,
I've heard nothing about Secret World Live coming out on SACD.

Secret World Live is available as a 5.1 DVD.
It has great sound but so-so video.

I spied one copy of the "Up" SACD at Best Buy today, and, of course, they have none now.
Wow!! It sounds like a whole new album!! Outstanding mix & sonics.
I got it just in time to get me all pumped up for the PG concert here next Thursday!

How about the COMPLETE Plays Live on SACD?
Highlights=pan and scan.
FYI, I paid about $16 each for the hybrids from Amazon.co.uk
A bargain!
