Over at Music Direct, it's listing a pre-order for the SACD of Doobie Brothers' "Toulouse Street" album. If true, this will be Warner's first domestic US SACD release*. The irony is, of course, that Warner Music is a major supporter of SACD's rival, DVD-Audio.

The Doobie Brothers - Toulouse Street on SACD

* Hong Kong Warner Music released 9 SACD titles, some featuring remastering and production at Sony's New York studios, before US corporate Warner Music pulled the plug. HK Warner Music never released a DVD-A title.

    Awesome! I love the Doobie Brothers. Good to see that Sony's discontinued support of SACD hasn't completely affected the market.

    A MUST HAVE SACD for me. Rockin Down the Highway has been one of my ultimate road trip song for many years!
