Unexpectantly this SACD is a little bit of a step up from my 2011 CD version.
I have not heard the 2019 CD version though, so a pinch of salt is warranted!
Compared to the 2011 CD version, which has a disc runtime of 57:35, this SACD is slightly longer at 57:43. It is also given a phonographic copyright year of 2024. So, it's either a DSD'd version of the 2019 CD release (which has a phonographic copyright date of 2019) or it's a new master.
In common with the recent Allan Holdsworth SACD's the disk is also glass mastered & pressed by Sony DADC in Europe, rather than Japan.
It's a great album and certainly, this will be the one to get if you are in the market for a digital version of this title.
