Customer Reviews

SACD SUPERIOR to redbook CD
I own both, SACD and CD. The sound of the SACD is so much more clear, articulate, three dimensional. Before I got the SACD I hardly ever listened to the redbook as acoustically there wasn't much to distinguish it from the other pressings (even when played back on a Sony SCD-C555ES). Playback of the SACD offers such listening pleasure. I close my eyes and just listen to the great LIVE music. The playback experience will depend on the quality of your audiogear.

SACD- What is going on?
This review is not about the album " Friday Night in San Francisco". This review is about SACD. If you are reading this then you clicked on a link that you thought would provide information about the SACD version of the above mentioned album. Not so. Most of the reviews under all 96 listed SACD albums are of the audio cd version of the recording. This is a tragedy. This new format allows us to hear things in our favorite recordings that were not so obvious before. I doubt very much that any of you clicked on the SACD version of "Blonde on Blonde" hoping to find info on the musical content of the disc. Come on guys! If you are not reviewing the SACD version specifically then move on to the CD Audio version and right your "critiques". SACD provides new bondaries. Tell me if it is multi channel, tell me if it is two channel only. Describe the mix. Tell me about the SACD medium itself. Tell me about the nuances that you heard only now after having listened to a disc 1000 times before. Tell me about being able to hear Jim Morrison's breath in the mix. But don't tell me why you think Journey was an under rated band. There is not a lot of new content out here. There is however a new listening experience. Describe the use of the new medium... Same holds true for the DVD Audio format. Lets get it together and provide some useful info. Thanks!

Must have....
For those of you who haven't heard this cd, it's flat out amazing. This is a legendary live recording and it will be sure to amaze anyone who listens to it regardless of their musical taste. Absolute insanity, non stop guitar dueling...you won't be able to speak the first time your hear this. Get this disc (preferably on SACD with a nice system) and play it for your company....then watch their mouths drop open.

I'm running a sony 555es through sonus faber signums and it sounds as if I am on stage with the band which only makes this an even better listen....
