Genesis SACD Box Set

Genesis SACD Box Set

2008-09-02 by Bernie

I just noticed on Amazon that a 1970-1975 box set of Genesis SACD's is 
being released on September 30. No mention if they're surround sound. I 
ordered the first 7 Moody Blues SACD's and was dissapointed to find 
that SACD doesn't necessarily mean surround sound. In Search of the 
Lost Chord is not. As much as I'd like to pre-order the Genesis box 
set, I think I'll wait to read the reviews.

The Genesis SACD's will be in surround...
Quote from  press release..
 
GENESIS: 1970-1975 presents  five of the band's earliest studio albums as 
SACD/CD Hybrid and DVD Dual Disc  sets featuring 5.1 DTS and Dolby Digital 
Surround Sound and new stereo mixes of  the original albums (5.1 and new stereo 
mixes created by Tony Banks, Nick Davis  and Mike Rutherford), plus bonus videos 
and new interviews with band members  filmed exclusively for these reissues. 
The set also contains hours of previously  unreleased video.  A booklet  
accompanies each album featuring sleeve notes by Richard McPhail (Trespass),  David 
Baddiel (Nursery Cryme), Roger Taylor (Foxtrot), Jeremy Clarkson (Selling  
England By The Pound) and Tony Robinson (The Lamb Lies Down On  Broadway). 
Worth buying for The Lamb and Selling England by the pound  alone IMO. 
There is also quite a bit of live early live stuff included  which should 
give us some great Tron moments to enjoy.

I would like to see his notes. Wonder if he'll compare it to a 1975 Ferrari.
