I have been waiting since December for "The Best Of Roxy Music" SACD to land on my doorstep.......today it arrived. Tonight I got to play it and this is what SACD is about. First we have clean, tight bass and drums.....one thing that was always missing from the redbook releases. Next, screaming guitar and synthesizer that seem to reach out to try and touch you......thanks SDA's. And then, we have Bryan Ferry, whose vocals I have had trouble understanding at times, sounding smooth and crystal clear. No problems understanding him now. While listening to "Out Of The Blue" at maximum volume, I had the hairs on the back of my neck standing up!!! It felt so good, I had to play it again......same thing happened then too. AWESOME!
I only hope that Virgin will release "For Your Pleasure" and "Viva!" on SACD, two of my favorites.
