jazzbo Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 I need to find that one I guess. I just have the DSD before that . . . which sounds great. Flurin, you're right, I was thinking of the Fillmore, In Concert, Live/Evil digipaks. . . I replaced all those with SACDs or DSD Japanese copies and forgot that Agharta and Pangaea were in jewel cases. Anyway it seems to me this is the jewel case remasterings. The proof is in the pudding so we have a few months to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porcy62 Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 (edited) At last!!! I am going to sell all my Mosaic's LP box sets, plus the Columbia CD sets and the other original and japan pressings in order to have this gem!!! Does anybody need a KOB, original mono pressing?

Would I be right in thinking that this is the 'only' way to hear Kind of Blue? Matter of taste I presume, the remixed stereo version on the Mosaic is quite good too, to my ears, just different. I don't believe in dogma like this, maybe because I was born in 1962, I wasn't there when KOB reached record's shops, so I am not emotionally attached to one specific version.

BTW If you didn't listen to an original mono pressing of KOB you don't know KOB Edited September 13, 2009 by porcy62 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The proof is in the pudding so we have a few months to see. Thanks for one more confirmation! I held off buying these two until some months ago, when I gave up hopes for new versions... anyway, I'm no audiophile, so those shall be ok for me, I guess.

Would I be right in thinking that this is the 'only' way to hear Kind of Blue? I think they really need to reissue that one. It's so ignored. greg mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Shearn Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 which discs are pictured in the Legacy link with the 6 eye design with "STEREO FIDELITY" written? They must have changed the CD label design for some albums. I will wait till they release the DVD separately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcscott Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 They have for pre-order at Amazon Canada for $259.99 CDN. Not bad $3.66/disc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djcavanagh Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 £140 at amazon.co.uk - the amazon.com price does seem too high relative to the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JETman Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 £140 at amazon.co.uk - the amazon.com price does seem too high relative to the others. Not so. On a US dollar basis, it's about even with Amazon Canada, and considerably less than Amazon US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The .co.uk price is actually marginally better than the .ca price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medjuck Posted November 15, 2009 Report Share Posted November 15, 2009 The last couple of paragraphs in this article imply that the new material and remasters may be available separately someday (though there's not much information as to what that new material might be). http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/...0,6182371.story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

king ubu Posted November 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 What was there that still needed remastering? The 1949 Paris set, the comeback albums, the unreleased material - all else was recently remastered for the recent box sets. I do hope however that some of these come out on their own - I'd buy the unreleased items of course! Also I still don't have "Star Time", which seems to be one of the best of the 80s albums (I've heard it once, years ago, a friend's LP) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
