I was told by a friend of mine who knows the "higher ups" and mastering engineers at MFSL that they are planning to release The Grateful Dead's "American Beauty" and "Workingman's Dead" on hybrid SACD. I don't know the date(s) of them yet. Just that they are "working on them". I am absolutely looking forward to this as "Workingman's Dead" is one of my all time favorite albums! I'll keep you guys informed as I learn more.:cheesygrin:

"I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion."
My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

That's great news. I hope they do Mars Hotel as well. :cheesygrin:Political Correctness'.........defined

It's not on SACD Jesse, but MFSL did the "silver disc" of Mars Hotel about 20 years ago. My friend had a copy of it in his record/CD shop a couple months back but assumed you owned it already. If you do not, I can see if I can pick it up for you?

I've had a copy of the Mars Hotel silver on sale on Amazon for about $8 for months now, don't know why it hasn't sold. Jesse if you want it it's yours.Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

$8.00!?!? WTF? That's almost giving it away..... I can't believe it hasn't sold for that price!

I'll think about it. They did a great job on the Skull & Roses vinyl.
