    I cannot, as the AF SACDs have not been released yet. We do know what Steve has told us - that they did not use the re-mix from 1996. They have used the original mixes available on the first 2 LPs, on Ode Records.

    Straight from the original masters--no artificial enhancement, echo or brickwalling or whatever. But keeping them just as they were when first recorded and mixed and mastered, retaining the "colour" and essence of the original masterpieces. Even if, as Steve says--it sometimes sounded like it was recorded in their kitchen, but he didn't want to change that simple magic into something that is totally unlike the original mixes. Thankfully, none of this new age digital re-muddleded stuff we so often get with these "remastered HQ" releases.

    If we have someone here who can be more technical, thanks. Mine is a more visceral and emotional connection to what was in 1968 and what will be with Steve's deft touch on these new S.H. mastered Audio Fidelity SACD releases!

  13. Wait. Wasn't the title of this thread 'four Spirit SACD titles coming from AF?' Was it changed or am I imagining things? :shh:

  18. Ok. Ok. Understood. Was slightly confused because the title of the original thread was changed and then I saw this. It's been a long week. Sorted now. Thank you, sir.

    1. Can't wait to get the SACDs!

    2. The spot used for the cover photo shoot hasn't changed all that much: Google Maps

    Listening to the Ode album of The Family..., after that, Vic's 1996 remix on the CD. Just cause I can.
