SHARE YOUR SACDs THAT SOUND FANTASTIC!!

I’ve got to say any recording by Steely Dan sounds fantastic on any format, bc they paid attention to that when they recorded their albums. Even my old Can’t Buy a Thrill album from college days still sounds great. SACD might almost be overkill. 

Forgot two other SACD's that I really like.  The Cars debut and The Cars Heartbeat City.  I wish Candy-O was available as a SACD.  Others I wish were available is Steve Winwood's Back In The High Life and Head Games by Foreigner.  

Classic Film Scores - Citizen Kane. The film music of Bernard Herrmann. Conducted by Charles Gerhardt.

The multi-channel SACD versions of all the RCA Red Seal series were sourced from the original multi-track London recordings. With over a dozen albums recorded during the 1970s, each one was dedicated to a leading Hollywood composer, or scores for a dedicated actor. Most have been released and sell for little outlay, £15 / $20 each.

The majority of these LPs won A* / 1* reviews from The Gramophone & Hi-Fi News magazines. Back in the day, A= Recording, 1= Performance. The asterisk denoted a revision as the earlier top grades had been technically surpassed & production standards had improved over time.

The pick of the bunch in my opinion is the Bernard Herrmann release. If you love pure film music professionally and faithfully reproduced with a 100 piece orchestra, look no further than this series. After 50 years the quality of these recordings still shine through.

I just got a 4K BluRay player and SACD player.  The 20th anniversary edition of Dire Straits Brothers in Arms sounds excellent in 5.1 surround sound.  I’ll be buying more SACDs.   Just ordered a used multichannel SACD of Derek and the Dominoes Layla and other assorted love songs.  More to come.

Anyone interested in SACDs should really check out the Japanese  SHM SACDs they were  issued almost 20 years ago but their fidelity is excellent. 

The newer AP issues sound harder but it's good to have them because the SHM SACDs were incomplete.
