• 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

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 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.

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. Hungry? Just look in the mirror and get fed up. | |

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'... [Edited 4/27/14 12:55pm] Hungry? Just look in the mirror and get fed up. | |

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’ 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. . To order ‘Super Duper Alice Cooper’ in one of its various bundle packages, click here.

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) Nick Ashford was someone I greatly admired, had the honor of knowing, and was the real-life inspiration for Cowboy Curtis' hair.
