Mellotronists

I picked up the Lamb on CD a while ago.... 22 years ago.

Nick Davis has completed the 5.1 mix of The Lamb. This mix is 
scheduled for release in September, 2004 on the thirtieth anniversary 
of its original release.

Not sure if it's SACD or DVD-A.  I don't know much about these 
formats.  Why would I want a DVD-A?

Well this sounds great news
(even though I don't have any equipment to play it on :-)

but now at least we'll be able to hear all the synth 
parts properly in THE COLONY OF SLIPPERMEN 
and all those bits where Eno makes everyone go all 
wibbly like a porcupine

It's still a quite brilliant work that never ages to these ears! I'm so
lucky to have seen it preformed live at the beautiful Auditorium Theatre in
Chicago just weeks before Gabriel left the band.

try reading this:
http://www.sound.westhost.com/cd-sacd-dvda.htm
it may confuse more than clarify...

my intial thought was: i can play a DVD-A on my DVD player
and it's purpose is to use my current surround setup to get
multuchannel audio playback, whereas SACD requires a special
player... looks like i am wrong about DVD-A...

Then try Woolly's new album!  Ask Mr Stickle for a review.
