    I have the Dire Straits and Marvin.

    DS like gfong just said is really done well.

    I did a quick listen to Marvin thought it was ok. Some songs stood out and others were just kind of bland and not that special but it is still a disc worth having.

    I just ordered the Steely Dan myself.

    Both the Dire Straits and Steely Dan SACDs (Mark Knopfler is on "Gaucho" too) are MUST HAVES for pop/rock SACD, imho. Once I heard the SACD versions (in 2 channel stereo), it's very hard to go back to the regular CD.

    The Spyra Gryo and Elton SACDs are also great. I am hoping Japan Universal may release some of these 2 artist' other works on SACD. I'd love to have Spyra Gyra's "Alternating Current" and Elton's "Too Low For Zero" on SACD.

    The Marvin Gaye Collection isn't that good. However, What's Going On is quite good.

    Spyro Gyra is only one of the longest-running jazz ensembles in music. They are outstanding.

    I'm certain you've heard some of their music, even if you didn't know who it was.

    I wish Sade would be released on SACD, even on 180 gram vinyl would be a big plus.

    51 and still has her young beautiful good looks. I find her very sexy for some reason.
