Mission of Burma: ONoffON | Ben Leggett - November 26, 2021

I won't lie - I mostly picked this up because I'm a fan of MoB's early stuff, and the novelty of finding literally anything from the post-Boomer era of recorded music on SACD ...

Bruckner: Symphony No. 5 - Haitink | DYB - November 28, 2021

That is unfortunate. I guess eBay may be the safest (and only?) way to go at this point.

Holst: The Planets, Britten: Four Sea Interludes - Bernstein | Ben Leggett - December 1, 2021

Some have complained that the MCH mix is botched on this SACD compared to the original quad mix - I don't have that to compare against and it's entirely likely they're right - ...

Herbie Hancock: Thrust | Ben Leggett - November 22, 2021

A really lovely mastering - and the best one available for this album, unless and until we get boutique reissues a-la Head hunters. Also, this is the only digital version of ...

Kenny Dorham: Matador | Tony Reif - November 18, 2021

Diana Krall: Live in Paris | PaulSARenaud - November 27, 2021

Bob Dylan: Bringing It All Back Home | Ben Leggett - November 23, 2021

Having listened to this release as well as the MoFi stereo version, I have to hand it to the MoFi - all the Columbia SACDs are shriller, with a more pronounced vocal mix that ...

Matthew Sweet: Altered Beast | the other theo - November 21, 2021

My disappointment with this release is that it does not completely replicate the original recording. The album is divided into two parts, corresponding to the sides of the ...
