Blu-ray Pure Audio Discs Offer True High-Resolution 24-bit/96kHz Audiophile Sound
.
Universal Music Group has gone back to the original master tapes to deliver fully uncompressed, high-resolution versions of many of your favorite albums on Blu-ray Pure Audio Disc. Mastered at 24bit/96kHz, Blu-ray Pure Audio Discs deliver the sound the artists originally heard in the studio when these classic albums were recorded. These discs provide all the recorded musical information. While convenient due to their small file size, today’s heavily compressed music files do not represent the true fidelity of the original album.
• Recordings are transferred from the original master tapes and delivered in high-resolution 24-bit/96kHz audio
• No compression is utilized, and the sound quality is vastly superior to MP3 or standard CD
• Three separate choices of audio file format for playback: PCM 2.0, Dolby True HD, or DTS-HD Master Audio (5.1 available where noted)
• Your preferred audio format is chosen either by pressing the "Audio" button on your Blu-ray remote or via your onscreen menu display
.
Blu-ray Pure Audio Discs:
Audio is taken from the original master tapes and mastered in 24-bit/96kHz resolution with a choice of three sound formats: PCM, Dolby True HD, or DTS-HD Master Audio. You can finally enjoy the music in the fidelity originally experienced in the studio.
.
Operating Instructions:
• Simply load the disc into any Blu-Ray device and it starts to play, just like a CD
• No video needed: Blu-Ray remote allows track selection and preferred audio format
• Alternately, use your onscreen display to select tracks and preferred audio format

I actually think that`s totally wrong to "promote" V-M/PTG cds anywhere on the net and they should just stop everything they do.

I don`t beiieve for a minute that this is a legal reissue especially now that EMI/Capitol catalog belongs to Universal(It`s common knowledge that is very hard to license anything from Universal and very expensive too).I have been burn to many times with horrible sounding cds from V-M/PTG so I don`t understand why anyone would buy any cds from them.

I've got a couple of titles by PTG/VM and I'm at a loss 4 wordz when it comes 2 describing the actual "sound" of their remastering. Tinny? Sped up? Not sure. Peabo tho! God...TOO tempting!!!! Love me some Peabs!!!! smile

I have some reissues that PTG licensed from Sony (Melba Moore, The Emotions) that sounded like they were actually from master tapes because they were crystal clear. I actually purchased the recent Peabo "Paradise" CD, expecting the worst (but I wanted it really bad!). Even though it is a vinyl rip, I was pleasantly surprised at how good it sounds. Must have been from a sealed vinyl and obviously they used a more seasoned engineer to do the rip. Anxious to see if they will do the same with their latest Peabo reissue.

I didn't know Universal now owned Capitol recordings, which explains why Soulmusic.com and Funkytown Grooves suddenly stopped with all of the Capitol reissues and never responded when I questioned them about further titles. I think the only way we will see the Peabo titles properly reissued using master tapes is through those two-fers from Expansion Records, like they did with O'Bryan and Rene & Angela.

You mentioned that the VM/PTG Melba Moore CD "Closer" was "crytal clear" yes it is if you talk about the FTG reissue.I have both CDS and there is a big difference in the sound quality.VM edition sounds more muddy the longer the record goes in contrast to the FTG edition which sounds exactly the same all the way through.Conclusion VM CD is another vinyl-rip imvho.

Good for you that you liked the Peabo CD,but I wouldn`t even accept a copy for free.

Anyone who lived through the 1970s and the disco era knows KC and the Sunshine Band and at least a couple of their songs. Oh, don’t give us that look, trying to pretend you’re too cool to have ever listened to disco: when a band has five number-one hits to their name – “Get Down Tonight,” “That’s the Way (I Like It),” “(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty,” “I’m Your Boogie Man,” and “Please Don’t Go,” in case you’ve forgotten them – there’s no way even their detractors can avoid hearing their music, and like it or not, the songs are so catchy that the hooks stick with you long after they’ve left the charts.

.

All good things must come to an end, however, and for the Sunshine Band, the platinum-selling years came to an abrupt halt with the release of 1981’s Space Cadet: Solo Flight, the first full-length effort credited solely to KC: not only did the album itself fail to chart, but all three of the album’s singles – “Make Me a Star,” “Space Cadet,” and “Red Light” – suffered the same fate.

.

As of today, Space Cadet: Solo Flight makes its debut in Rhino’s digital catalog, so you can give it a listen for yourself and figure out if it’s a lost classic or not. Either way, though, you can’t say that Harry Casey – the man who puts the “KC” in “KC and the Sunshine Band,” as you may have guessed – didn’t take a shot at stepping outside the box a bit. The problem, as Casey groused in a February 2014 interview with Des Moines’ Cityview website, was that “every time I changed, I was told, ‘That doesn’t sound like KC and the Sunshine band.’”

I'm (still) hopeful that somewhere in the future one of the remastering companies will revisit K.C. and The Sunshine Band's two also failed Epic albums, "The Painter" and "All In A Night's Work." Wouldn't THAT be sumpthin'?! Fingers crossed. smile

Agreed, kit. Yup. I've noticed how Expansion, as of late, has had their hands in the Capitol vaults (High Fashion, Eloise Laws, O'Bryan, Sheree Brown and Kwick.) It would be AWESOME if they (Expansion) would remaster and put out the remaining Peabo titles ("I Am Love" and "Turn The Hands Of Time." Additionally, maybe Gene Dunlap's, "It's Just The Way I Feel" and "Party In Me" or B.B.& Q. Band's "All Night Long" & "Six Million Times?" Maybe the two Ebonee Webb albums too? Time will, no doubt, tell. Here's hopin'... smile

LP, MP3

Available: July 1, 2014

.

“Our journals and recording equipment were ultimately confiscated and stolen by the MNLF rebels. We escaped with a single cassette, the clothes on our back, and our lives.”
—David Blair Stiffler
.
In 1988, David Blair Stiffler risked life and limb to document under-recorded cultural groups living lives of extreme isolation in the mountainous Philippine regions of Nueva Ecija, Aurora, and Luzon. These are the fruits of that expedition.
.
In the grand tradition of ethnographic recordings that made up the majority of Folkways' vast and significant catalog comes Music from the Mountain Provinces. By the mid-1980s, David Blair Stiffler was already a most-decorated recordist, with eight Folkways LPs under his belt. These are among the most obscure documents in the entire Folkways catalog. Although the works of Jose Maceda and Nicole Revel heavily documented much of the Philippines' countryside inhabitants with a thorough and sober effort protracted over the decades, Stiffler brought his own panache into the equation, capturing gorgeous and revelatory moments from some of the archipelago's least visited regions. Even without the harrowing tale of himself and his crew being taken hostage, contained within is a rare aural experience. These masters, originally intended for release on Folkways, were shelved when Stiffler returned home to news of Folkways founder Moses Asch’s death.

Artist: Emerson, Lake and Palmer
Title: Brain Salad Surgery: Super Deluxe Edition
Release Date: May 12, 2014
Label: Sony Music / Legacy Recordings
Format(s): 2-CDs, 2-CDs/DVDA, 3-CDs/DVDA/DVD, DD

Sony Music and Legacy Recordings will release deluxe editions of Emerson, Lake and Palmer's 1973 album Brain Salad Surgery in a variety of different formats.

Originally announced on the 40th Anniversary of its original release, the Super Deluxe Edition of Brain Salad Surgery is the result of months of work delving into the archive with the full co-operation of Greg Lake, Keith Emerson and Carl Palmer. Packaged in a stunning hardcover 12” slipcase with inner gatefold and the original HR Giger artwork digitally restored and enhanced.

Fully remastered throughout, as well as the original album, the package also contains an alternate album featuring five rare alternate versions, a disc of new stereo mixes and a DVDA including High Resolution Original Mix Remastered, High Resolution Stereo Mix, MLP lossless surround mix, DTS 5.1 Surround Mix and Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Mix.

The super deluxe edition also features a DVD of the 1973 feature length Manticore Special Documentary with highlights from the 1973 World Tour and a photo gallery of imagery from the Brain Salad Surgery era. The package is completed with 180gm Vinyl, replica original release die-cut poster and a 20-page 12” booklet with photographs and new liner-notes.

Greg Lake said, “My memories about making this album and indeed about this whole period in the bands history are something that I will always cherish and be extremely proud of. I still perform songs from this album in my show to this day and know how much some of these songs mean to the audience who grew up with them.”

Carl Palmer said, “I think if you were to identify one album as being the masterwork of ELP it would have to be Brain Salad Surgery. For me it was our Sergeant Pepper moment. We were doing weird things to push the boundaries of experimentation and recording forward. We used every recording technique under the sun from recording percussion in the toilet to using custom designed electronic percussion. It’s my favourite album by far.”

Keith Emerson commented, “We were on a real creative roll when we wrote and recorded Brain Salad Surgery. That album saw us push boundaries further than we’d ever done before and I listen to that music now and I wonder how we did it!”

Brain Salad Surgery is the album that saw Keith Emerson, Greg Lake and Carl Palmer displaying more creativity than most bands achieve in their whole lifetime. Produced by Greg Lake, 1973’s Brain Salad Surgery was ELP’s first album on their own Manticore imprint. With its fold-out sleeve designed by HR Giger, it was all guns blazing, trophy taking, the karmic, the cosmic, the symphonic, all distilled into two sides of vinyl. From Greg Lake’s massively popular composition Still You Turn Me On and their rendition of the William Blake/Hubert Parry hymn Jerusalem to Emerson’s adaptation of Alberto Ginastera’s Toccata, this was a world-class album. And that is before the epic side and a half long Karn Evil 9. It became their greatest statement, their calling card, the one every self-respecting music fan fell in love with, complete with their catchphrase in song, ‘Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends...”

The set will be released in the following formats:

  • Standard - 2-CDs (Original album remastered, alternate album), 12 page booklet
  • Deluxe - 2-CDs (Original album remastered, alternate album), Super Sonic Audio (DVDA), 16 page booklet

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

I don't think they use those slip cases as much anymore. Elton John's deluxe edition of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road used the wrap around sticker that's on the Grace Jones' cd. But the one on Elton John was on the outside plastic.

Super Duper Alice Cooper

‘Super Duper Alice Cooper’ Documentary to Be Released on DVD + Blu-ray

.

The new Alice Cooper documentary ‘Super Duper Alice Cooper’ will soon be released on DVD and Blu-ray. With deluxe limited edition copies also set to become available, ‘Super Duper Alice Cooper’ will come out on June 3.

.

‘Super Duper Alice Cooper’ premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in April and was also screened nationally in movie theaters. The film has been labeled as the first ever “doc opera,” combining documentary archive footage, animation and rock opera dynamics.

.

Super Duper Alice Cooper is the story of Vincent Furnier, a preacher’s son who struck fear into the hearts of parents everywhere as the ultimate rock star of the bizarre, Alice Cooper,” the film’s description reads. “Yet beyond the make-up, there is a richer, deeper story. Presented here is the twisted tale of a teenage Dr. Jekyll whose rock ‘n’ roll Mr. Hyde almost kills him.”

.

Created by Banger Films’ Sam Dunn and Scot McFadyen ['Metal: A Headbanger's Journey' / 'Iron Maiden: Flight 666'], the DVD and Blu-ray versions of the film features deleted scenes, interviews from the VH1 Classic series ‘Metal Evolution’ and additional rare footage. The deluxe edition will include a second DVD of previously unreleased concert footage from a 1972 Montreal University show and the 2009 Montreux Jazz Festival housed in an LP-sixed box with a 60-page hardback photo book.

.

Their 1982 album As One was also remastered,but I'm gonna skip that one (for now).For some reason,I've never been able to really get into that album.I think it was a weak follow-up to Something Special,which I actually consider to be their strongest 80s album.

Bon Jovi has announced that it will celebrate its 30th anniversary this year with a new deluxe reissue campaign.

The first installment will be remastered and expanded versions of the veteran rockers' hugely successful 1988 album, New Jersey, which will be released on July 1.

The revamped New Jersey will be available in numerous configurations, including as a single CD and digital download, as a two-CD and digital Deluxe Edition, and as a two-CD/one-DVD Super Deluxe Edition.

New Jersey originally was released in September 1988 and went on to top the Billboard 200 chart for four weeks. It yielded five top-10 singles, including two #1 hits -- "Bad Medicine" and "I'll Be There for You" -- and has been certified for sales of more than seven million copies in the U.S. alone. Frontman Jon Bon Jovi originally planned to release the songs from the New Jersey album as a two-disc set titled Sons of Beaches.

However, the band's label preferred putting out a single-disc record, and the album was issued as a 12-song set named after Bon Jovi's home state. The New Jersey Deluxe and Super Deluxe versions feature a bonus CD with previously unreleased demos of the extra tracks originally intended for the Sons of Beaches project. Those two editions also offer a few other bonus rarities. In addition, the Super Deluxe Edition contains a DVD that offers a 1990 documentary that focuses on Bon Jovi's world tour in support of New Jersey. It also features seven promotional videos for songs from the album, plus a 60-page booklet offering rare photos, memorabilia, commentary and more. Reissues of various other Bon Jovi albums are expected to be released later this year.

Here is the full track list for the Super Deluxe Edition of New Jersey:

Disc 1: New Jersey (original album, remastered, + bonus tracks) "Lay Your Hands on Me" "Bad Medicine" "Born to Be My Baby" "Living in Sin" "Blood on Blood" "Homebound Train" "Wild Is the Wind" "Ride Cowboy Ride" "Stick to Your Guns" "I'll Be There for You" "99 in the Shade" "Love for Sale" Bonus Tracks: "The Boys Are Back in Town" (Thin Lizzy cover, previously released on Stairway to Heaven/Highway to Hell compilation) "Love Is War" (B-side from "Living in Sin" single) "Born to Be My Baby" (acoustic version, previously released as a B-side in Japan)

Disc 2: The Sons of Beaches Demos (all tracks on disc are previously unreleased) "Homebound Train" "Judgment Day" "Full Moon High" "Growin' Up the Hard Way" "Let's Make It Baby" "Love Hurts" "Backdoor to Heaven" "Now and Forever" "Wild Is the Wind" "Stick to Your Guns" "House of Fire" "Does Anybody Really Fall In Love Anymore?" "Diamond Ring"

Disc 3: DVD Access All Areas: A Rock & Roll Odyssey documentary directed by Wayne Isham. Music videos from the New Jersey album, all directed by Isham: "Bad Medicine" (1st Version) "Born to Be My Baby" "I'll Be There for You" "Lay Your Hands on Me" "Living in Sin" "Blood on Blood" "Bad Medicine" (2nd Version)
