Is anyone else buying Frampton Comes Alive in SACD? (1 Viewer)

[Tomoko Noguchi]

I ordered this from cheap-cds.com yesterday and hope to have it next week. Anyone else buying this and if you have it what do you think?

 

[Doug_H]

I have DVD-A but this release may get me to jump on SACD as well

 

[Phil A]

I ordered mine earlier today from cheap-cds.com as well.

Doug, "Frampton Comes Alive" is slated for DVD-A release as well as SACD.

 

[Tomoko Noguchi]

When it comes to choice between the two, SACD usually gets my money every time.

 

[Steve Meskell]

If it is pressed by Crest.......NO

 

[Tomoko Noguchi]

Well, I understood the Frampton is a single layer disc and those discs aren't the problem even with the Crest discs.

Not a hybrid??? well then I'll get. I wish Gaucho was a single layer....:frowning:

If a disc is a surround release, here is my preference:

1) DVD-A
2) non-Crest hybrid SACD
3) non-hybrid SACD

Crest hybrid = no buy.

If a disc is stereo-only, here is my preference:

1) non-Crest hybrid SACD
2) DVD-A
3) non-hybrid SACD

Since the Frampton disc is surround, and available in both formats, I'll get DVD-A.

I'm on the fence. I'll proably buy a copy of the SACD though. I have several copies of the vinyl record...

 

[Lee Scoggins]

I like this album...Z93 plays it often here in Atlanta. I will pick up the SACD when out.

 

[Michael_T]

I already have this disc, but haven't listened to it yet.

I can confirm, though, that it is a single layer 2-SACD set... and the discs ARE NOT pressed by Crest.

Then, why the hell is it TWO SACDs??? I'm sure that it will be only 1 DVD-A. The album (even WITH the bonus tracks) just isn't that long. Looks like it will be DVD-A for me.
Will this also be the case with Tommy & Goodbye Yellow Brick Road?:frowning:

Isn't 93 minutes the most for SACD discs???
