    Below is the response I received from my email to Music Direct. They reference the vinyl but I specifically asked about the release of the SACDs. Oh well, hopefully both the SACDs and the vinyl will be released soon :).

    Hello, I have all four upcoming Dire Straits MOFI SACDs on preorder. Will they be released this month? Thank you for your time!

    Unfortunately we are not provided with arrival estimates from any LP manufacturer, therefore cannot say when it will arrive.

    I was hoping the SACD's would come out in March/April because to tell you the truth January is not a month where I am able to fork out $120+ postage for these! :o

    No On Every Street vinyl or SACD? :( That's the only Dire Straits album I like! (I love Knopfler solo, though).

    Still means nothing, sorry. Wasted your time I guess.

    Have you heard the recent reissue (2014)? I find it excellent, myself (would make me really have to think about procuring a MoFi replacement)

    Is that the one by "Back To Black"? I owned a few of their titles many years ago, but they were horrible.

    I believe so, but this is from the Dire Straits box set pressed by GZ. My pressing is flat and quiet. Just a suggestion, as from a sound quality standpoint I find it every bit as enjoyable as the DS BIA MoFi, if not more, as I really dig the songs.
    (although i have the first four Pallas BG's as were in the box, i'm looking fwd to what mofi can do with their double 45's)

    Fixed for clarity, I think you wanted a space between ****ing and thing. :)

    So we have gone from today to the summer of '21, who to believe?

    Thanks, I was mostly commenting on the online dealers coming up with this date. They must have pulled this date from their backsides. I appreciate Myke for passing along what he saw/heard.

    Without a doubt the 2021 comment was a lying joke.

    By LP manufacturer, do they mean pressing plant or are they waiting for the ok from Dire Straits?

    Don't think I could've taken more today, without my head exploding. Mailman knocked, and...

    4 Disc Fresh Cream
    The Best Of The Doors
    Quad SACD
    In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida 2017 Chris Bellman reissue
    Wait Until Dark Blu ray

    :winkgrin:

    The 2021 was about as believable as Jan 27, trust the label's updates and nothing else.

    I will wait and wait and wait. But the sacd's will sound Good I think. With Santana 3 and other recent stuff from them they were on the right track

    Just recently picked this up too. Glorious yes? Surprisingly warm for a digital recording.

    The BIA release was why I instantly ponied up for the set minus the debut. I will eventually get the debut, but only had monies for three at the time.

    The SACDs are being reissued by MoFi, an US company, so Warner Bros.
