Possible glitch alert and I hope it's just on my copy, but halfway though Sealinon it skips.... Lets Hope it just yours...... I was going to say it's just him. Let's hope for a glitch free product. IT DAMN WELL better be glitch free as possible after the Aqualung Blu-ray/DVD mess and the Thick As A Brick DVD recall.

Worse than any glitch was the Guitar being mixed too low in TAAB.. A real disappointment as the others were so brilliant! I still need to extract and remix my copy.

TAAB - I'm guessing that you're talking about the Steven Wilson STEREO remix. The stereo remix is mastered too bright for me, not my taste. It should have been swapped out for a flat transfer. The same person mastered the 5.1 - that was recalled because it was too bright and distorted in parts. With TAAB DVD the flat stereo transfer from the master tape is a gem. Nice to have, the 5.1 is a flat transfer on the corrected DVD.

I recall the drums and bass were impressive, but most of the big guitar solo parts seemed to be in the back of the mix somewhere. The parts that I wait to come up. They just didn't hit me like I am used to. I can bet that I have heard TAAB more than even SW has, and it did not sound right! It left me disappointed. The glitches on other releases didn't bother me too much because they sound so damn good but I wish TAAB 5.1 was remixed. I thought the stereo mix was really good from what I recall.. Bright doesn't bother me too much and can always be EQ'd if it's that bad. Aqualung, Benefit, and Passion Play 5.1 mixes were stellar!! This weekend, Warchild!

Great, 5.1, nice to discuss surround sound - I usually get bitched at by the I don't do surround sound crowd at SHtv. I enjoy the 5.1. Didn't really notice that the guitar was lacking. (sometimes I need to turn up my back speakers & centre speaker on certain mixes and down on others) I'll note this for the next time I listen to TAAB in 5.1. Benefit & APP are great in 5.1. Aqualung is too bright for me, I listen to Aqualung in quad the most these days. Give me flat transfers of Tull and I'll be happy.

My feelings about surround sound have been quoted on King Crimson's DMG live site as well as the Buffalo News. I think listening to an album (especially these classic recordings) today should be heard in 5.1. (If possible) It's more like when you used to sit and just listen to records. I would much rather hear a good 5.1 than watch some movie. Music technology has advanced far past stereo and quad yet it is mostly ignored. I dread that music is going away from owning a physical product. Thankfully Steven Wilson realizes the importance and has put this stuff out there. If 5.1 DVD was THE way to listen to music these days bands would be able to sell product again and more good music would be created! I get chills when I think of the first time I heard "Cross Eyed Mary" in 5.1 (a song i've heard a billion times before) These releases have been a dream come true for me. I am also proud to be involved with the packaging on some of these. People should not brush these mixes off as just another "remaster". Not that I think everyone should run out and by 5.1 systems but... don't mock it until you've heard it.

Once you hear one disc you will be so happy you have others.

First disc is great, but the second disc is AMAZING! I'm just realizing that my favorite tracks from WarChild are the 'leftovers' and 'flawed gems'. "Bungle in the Jungle"? "Two Fingers"? "Skating Away"? Well, that's nice, but give me "Paradise Steakhouse", "Saturation", "Good Godmother", and "Rainbow Blues" ANY day ...
Now onto the orchestral stuff!
