Flake Neil Young. The last thing he did that I liked was down by the River.
Follow Ups:
Yes, and Harvest gets the award for strangest and least enjoyable surround mix. Thank goodness the stereo layer is there.
who would say that is not grounds to demand a refund, no argument from me!! But that weird mix was so screwy, I took my Harvest back, and got my $$ back.
And if you would have held onto it, you probably could have sold it for 2 to 3 times what you paid, since many OOP DVD-Audio discs now fetch "stupid" money.
I would sell all mine for stupid money. Sold my mofi Duke ellington SACD for $75. I think I paid $15.

Amazon sellers
Brain Salad Surgery for $122 anyone?
Nightfly for $50
Harvest for $50 too...
Fragile $53

I listened last night, it is very good. 100 times better than any ELP LP from that era. My favorite is when the bass comes in on "Still you turn Me On" Surprises the ____ out of the guests.
When I have more money that I know what to do with, I will take up that offer!

Amazon has the SACD coming in two months for $45!! Let me know when you get it, I'll look for your review.
wee all know who won the format war.I have not seen any $100 sacds .I have not looked up sacd on ebay.if they were smarter they should of made a 2 sided disc.one side dvd audio other side sacd.I like dual disc the best for video & audio,then the dvd cd combo.last sacd,no video
If there were any neutral observers to the format "war" they'd classify it as a skirmish between crippled combatants (by crippled I mean lack of marketing, studio backing, artists interest and most of all music titles, in comparison to all music releases. Even vinyl is better supported, and that's supposedly dead. What's deader than dead?)
I don't particularly care which format as long as the music on it is what I like and it's hi-rez multichannel. What worries me is hardware support will die off in the future; perhaps you'll be able to play the video layer of DVD-As and still get multichannel music, but SACDs? Can't even play it on a PC

I liked buying the dvd audios because each one had a different video dislay.I have about 100 of them.but I only recall 1 with a video on it.It was linkin park animated war song.I like dual disc better there is more video content.I wish I could afford blue ray for the video content.
from the little ive read the sounds not that great on some discs.
I prefer to LISTEN to music, not watch it.
Don't give 2 hoots about BluRay, or any of Sony's rubbish.
DualDisc was hobbled from the start - the DVD side could only be a single layer, and the Red Book side wasn't.
Much cheaper - and better - to replicate a CD/DVD-A/V Double-pack.
if the sound isn't great it won't be the fault of the codec. its a similar format to DVD-A so the capability is there. either the mixing is poor, or the system isn't properly set up (most likely)

and a mover stole it 15 years ago. Stole my .45, too!
haha. I probably won't be getting this either - just posting here because it's going to be hirez audio
I'll keep an eye out for the individual disc contents though, someone would be interested surely

to see some guy had taken Neil's place. And as Crosby said:
"Neil is the kind of guy who will say, see you tomorrow, and you don't hear from him for five years".
