The Great Rock ‘n’ Roll Swindle / Japanese SHM-SACD Here is a brief look at some of the Hi-Res releases issued in late December 2013 and January 2014. As you will see, there is a solid selection of ‘High Fidelity Pure Audio’ new releases. For most of these audio-only blu-ray discs it’s probably best to assume they will contain just the tracks from the album without any bonus material, although there is the odd exception ( Never Mind The Bollocks does contain bonus material). The Pure Audio discs are largely unavailable in the US and Canada at the time of writing. The Japanese SHM-SACDs are very expensive but beautifully put together with exquisite vinyl replica packaging that sits within an outer slipcase (see image above). Unlike the Blu-ray discs these are proper limited editions and should at least hold their value.

Sam Cooke's SAR Records Story is a double-disc set presenting material recorded for the legendary soul singer's own SAR label from 1959-1965, much of it produced by Cooke himself and including a few of his rough, unreleased demos. The first disc covers the label's religious side, with a multitude of cuts from Cooke's. Fantastic Voyage. 4Did you know that as well as releasing albums on both CD and digital, Fantastic Voyage also has a catalogue of digital- only albums?

Worth noting that they are not hybrid so they will only play on SACD players. Tweety Bird Cartoon Videos For Free Download there. I will be preordering Genesis and Stones Blu Rays. The Sims 3 Isola Da Sogno Torrent Multi there. Hopefully more Genesis and Stones will follow. Probably will order some of these other new and upcoming releases. Are some of the pics above from the Japanese Platnium series?

Recently ordered and received Cream “Fresh Cream” and Cream “Disraeli Gears” SHM SACDs mono/stereo + bonus and after receiving positive feedback concerning sound quality from collectors who purchased the Rod Stewart, I’m seriously considering picking that up too Happy Holidays! Has anyone performed an A/B test between the new Pure Audio and SACD/DVD-A versions of some of these titles? I’d be interested to know if the Blu Rays are better than the corresponding SACD/DVD-As.

I own a bunch of the latter format including Selling England (DVD-A); Pet Sounds (DVD-A); and Let It Bleed (SACD). Obviously I don’t want to buy replacements unless there is a compelling reason to do so.

That said, I don’t believe either Imagine or the Pistols have ever been issued in hi-res and I am interested in them. Any info appreciated. But seeing as how I am here now The way in which XTC seems to be going about reissuing its catalogue should be an example to Universal and their Blu-Ray line.

Great packaging, new mixes, quality extras.
