Well, sounds like the mix has been done (years ago) and all it takes is for Sony to say "yes"....

    I think I'll be passing on that one myself.

    It would probably sell fairly well though.

    This has been out for sometime now.

    No it hasn't. That is a early non-hybrid SACD, and it is a single layer, STEREO ONLY version...not the MC version Danny is referring to.

    I would guess that the record companies (ie "the thieves" as the Moody Blues refer to them in an interview) will pump every bit of revenue they can out of the catalog. I would guess they will be working to get this released. It would be interesting to know if the record companies have to pay less to the estate in royalties, etc. than they would of had to pay while MJ was alive?

    I would rather have Off the Wall in SACD 5.1 myself.

    Thriller is a great album,

    But Off the Wall is Off the Hook IMHO.
