Listened to the Mozart Volume 4 today. Another reference disc from the good people at Channel Classics. Highest recommendation.

Re: What Hirez Discs Have You Purchased Recently?


Tumbleweed Connection and Elton John SACDs, Slippery When Wet DualDisc (this format has taken its lumps but it is way cool to have high rez surround and music videos [with a choice of stereo and 5.1!] on the same disc that you can flip and play in any CD player) and the Running On Empty "Deluxe" 2-disc DVD-A package.

It's not high rez but I also finally got the Deluxe Edition of What's Going On. Wonderful photography, thorough liner notes--another terrific package from this UMG line.

Got all this for $43 shipped from BMG.

Re: What Hirez Discs Have You Purchased Recently?


Would someone who has the MFSL Ultra of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road and the DVD-A of that album post re whether the DVD-A's liner notes have the same (or larger?) wonderful reproductions of the color(ful) drawings from what I assume was the original fold out double LP of this album that MFSL meticulously reproduced for the Ultradisc? Thanks!

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road - Elton John (SACD)
White Trash Beautiful - Everlast (SACD)
Songs of Faith and Devotion - Depeche Mode (SACD)
Turn of a Friendly Card - Alan Parsons Project (HDAD)

BTW....as of today all three APP HDADs are available again. Mainly through Classic Records but they seem to be filtering down to the other sources as well
