Underworld SACDs would be neat.

oh, yeah, with an SACD player with proper bass management it sounds really clear. you can hear things in the sacd layer of gabriel's 'up' that aren't even apparent on the cd layer of the same cd. i'm also waiting for the genesis SACDs, but it looks like they're going to mess up.. here's what i mean:

there's this grand finale at the end of the genesis album 'a trick of the tail' called 'los endos', and at the beginning, there are a few notes from the middle of a b side called 'it's yourself', and the producer wants to mould the two songs together and not have stand alone versions of either, and i'm freaking out and shit. i mean, why would you change the music to something that wasn't originally recorded? this isn't just overdubs, this is like putting two songs together that just don't go. but otherwise, the producer has released some standard stereo non SACD previews, and they sound pretty good, but there have been tons of errors with them (missing guitar parts, missing echos, sounds 'cold', even lost multitrack tapes for one song!) and i think he's trying to get through it too quickly ; he's doing a track a day, so i fear that the SACDs will be riddled with errors when released. producing and mixing is a long and involved process that needs to be done extremely carefully. but i don't know, maybe he's going back over everything perusing every note. we'll just have to see the SACDs when they come out. anyway, there are lots of SACDs available, and the best selling one is (obviously) the dark side of the moon (considering it's the best selling album of all time).
