David Gilmour [Blu-spec CD2] [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [Limited Release]David GilmourWorth The Wait!!
I thought that this was never going to be released after numerous delays but FINALLY we have David Gilmour's first solo release on Blu-Spec CD2 & it does not disappoint, a thoroughly enjoyable listen!! About Face & On An Island are recommended as well. It might be a dream but maybe one day we will get some Pink Floyd albums released on BS CD2 as well!! Olivier, I hope you received your cd but if you haven't try contacting info@cdjapan.co.jp & be sure to include your order number.

Fire In The Sky (Japanese Title)DEEP PURPLESHM, Blu Spec Or MQA
Maybe if it was released on SHM cd, Blu Spec or MQA format this compilation could be worthwhile, otherwise most hardcore DP fans have most of this material already.

Deepest Purple [SHM-CD]Deep PurpleDemon's Eye Finally On SHM Cd
Fantastic sounding SHM reissue of this classic, it's worth the price for DEMON'S EYE on SHM cd alone!! CRANK IT UP!!!!!!!!
-
Appetite For Destruction Super Deluxe Edition [4SHM-CD + Blu-ray / Limited Edition]Guns N' RosesGreat Album But.....
Why not release AFD as SHM Sacd, Platinum SHM cd or at least regular SHM or Blu Spec 2 cd?? That is what the fans would like!!

40 Trips Around The Sun -Greatest Hits [Blu-spec CD2]TOTOFantastic!!
Excellent career overview compilation from Toto. There will always be some question about song selections but you can't please everyone, this probably should have been expanded to a two disc set. The sound is not brickwalled thankfully!! The new songs are excellent especially Spanish Sea. Jake To The Bone sounds fantastic!!
-
Book Of Dreams [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [SHM-CD] [Limited Release]Steve Miller BandFantastic!!
Excellent three dimensional SHM sound, wonderful clarity & instrument separation. Great picture disc too!! Find a copy of this edition if you are a Steve Miller fan!!!

Come Taste The Band [35th Anniversary] [SHM-CD]Deep PurpleVery Very Tasty!!!!!!
I don't know why this album doesn't get more respect than it does, probably because Ritchie Blackmore & Ian Gillan are not involved, but I really enjoy this album as much as any DP album before or since. I also really enjoy the remixes, subtle as they may be. Now we need Who Do We Think We Are, Fireball, In Rock, Made In Japan & Perfect Strangers to be released in SHM deluxe editions.

Mystical Adventures [SHM-CD] [Limited Pressing]Jean-Luc PontyTres Tres Bon!!!!!!
Excellent album from JLP, now sounding even better in three dimensional SHM sound, get all the JLP SHM reissues, they are all fantastic sounding!
-
Shockwave Supernova [Blu-spec CD2]Joe SatrianiGreat Satch!!!
Great new album from Joe,the songs flow nicely together & the sound is excellent on Blu Spec cd2.IMHO Joe's best release in a while. Can't wait for the 2016 BS cd2 reissues from Joe Satriani!!
-
Protocol 3 [SHM-CD]Simon PhillipsFantastic Fusion!!!!
Another in a series of fabulous fusion albums from Simon & the gang, excellent musicianship, very tastefully done. Excellent music to unwind to on a Friday night after a long week. Why isn't there more of this type of music being released these days?????
-
Enigmatic Ocean [SHM-CD] [Low-Priced Edition]Jean Luc PontyExcellent Album-Fantastic SHM Sound!!
JLP's Enigmatic Ocean is a must for fusion fans or even rock fans like myself,the music flows nicely & the musicianship is impeccable. The SHM version sounds terrific!! The SHM version of Cosmic Messenger is also recommended listening.
-
Bridge Of Sighs [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [SHM-CD]Robin TrowerDeserves SHM SACD & Platinum Treatment !
Bridge Of Sighs is one of the greatest guitar albums of all time so I think an SHM SACD & Platinum SHM cd is warranted.
-
Eight Times Up [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [SHM-CD] [Limited Release]Larry CarltonEXCELLENT!!!!!!!
This is an excellent lost gem of a recording of Larry Carlton live in Japan in 82 or around that time, I just wish it was the complete show, the band & Larry are phenomenal!
-
Protocol II [SHM-CD]Simon PhillipsEXCELLENT FUSION!!!!!!!!!!
Another excellent fusion album from Simon & his mates, all instrumental, very tastefully done. The SHM version sounds superb, how about an SHM release of Symbiosis, Another Lifetime, & Out Of The Blue, that would be awesome. Five stars & my highest possible recommendation.
-
The Game [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [Platinum SHM-CD] [Limited Release]QueenMAGNIFICENT!!!!!!
I really enjoyed this platinum version of The Game, great drum sound, it's my new favorite version of this Queen classic. In fact, I think I prefer the Platinums for News Of The World, A Night At The Opera, & The Game to the SHM Sacds.
-
Every Picture Tells A Story [Cardboard Sleeve (mini LP)] [SHM-SACD] [Limited Release]Rod StewartStunning Sound!!!!!!!!!
Amazing three dimensional soundstage with breathtaking clarity & instrument separation makes this great release probably the benchmark for the SHM SACD format. Maybe one day we can get some Zeppelin & Floyd on SHM SACD please Japan.

Teaser [Blu-specCD2]
Tommy BolinTeaser [Blu-specCD2]Tommy BolinWhere Is TEASER on BLU SPEC CD2 ??????When I learned that both TEASER & PRIVATE EYES were to be released on BLU SPEC CD2 I immediately pre ordered both. For some unknown reason TEASER release was canceled, a travesty. PRIVATE EYES sounds excellent on BS CD2, TEASER would sound just as good I would expect so please make the effort to make this release happen to honor Tommy's legacy. Thank you.
-
Private Eyes [Blu-spec CD2]Tommy BolinA Definite Sonic Improvement !!!!!!
Tommy's Private Eyes album on BS CD2 is excellent, if you are a fan you need to have this version, great sound at a great economical price. I have only one question, where is TEASER on BS CD2 ??????????????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
BREAKFAST IN AMERICA [Blu-ray Audio/Import Disc]SUPERTRAMPExcellent Version!
I really enjoyed this version, it will be interesting to compare the new Platinum SHM & SHM sacd versions to this BR edition. I think I'm done buying BIA after these new versions, I've probably had close to ten or more different copies on vinyl, cassette, & cd since 1979 & I never tire of this great album.
-
CRIME OF THE CENTURY [Blu-ray Audio/Import Disc]SUPERTRAMPPlease Release COTC On Blu Ray Audio!
I was really looking forward to this release, especially after listening to BIA on Blu Ray audio. I hope that is just a short delay because this excellent album deserves the BR treatment (& Platinum SHM cd & SHM sacd as well)!
