Aerosmith Rocks SACD is alive!

I just saw it, $710 is the current bid.

 

Yeah. I just saw again it, too. Don't know what happened.

 

I know they did, but the tray itself has got a SACD symbol where the Compat Disc symbols usually are. I have only ever seen a SACD with a regular tray on one SACD and it was a used SACD.

So I am wondering.... as it looks like his has a regular tray and was sealed.

 

This was covered within the first few pages of this thread.

 

Thanks , I will go find it. I missed it.

I guess its just to hard for someone to just say for me ? oh well, off to search.

 

I think it's odd it has a regular tray.

 

Maybe their advance promos did not? Just guessing of course.

 

Again, he doesn't even know if its a legit transfer. Spectral analysis anyone? Sure it might have been done with a SACD machine or whatever but I sure as well wouldnt bid on something that was not completely verified and proved. Not at the prices he is trying to get for this.

 

maybe.... was just odd to me. never seen a new one without a sacd tray.

has anyone ?


as for this being legit, I am sure it is.

 

.

 

Just because he pops it in and it says SACD? How come the OP hasnt tried to contact the original author of the SACD and verify that it is legit? Spectral analysis and confirmation from the guy who authored the disc would make this not look as sketchy. AND would increase the confidence of buyers.

 

I would think if there's one copy, there's another. The fact that this has a cut-out hole drilled in it says that it was either a demo copy, or a deleted cut-out. Wouldn't it be something to find another in a cut-out bin someplace?

It's like the Rolling Stones digipack SACD's on Abkco. Some stores still have them at regular price, because the UPC is the same as the DSD Mastered (Non-SACD) ones that took their place.

 

Eddie said he called the mastering studio:

 

okay but shouldnt he be talking to Stephen Sapher?

 

.

 

He just did the authoring. All he did was organize some computer files to the SACD standard. Dave Donnelly did the actual mastering.

 

So, we can advertise our Ebay auctions in the Forums now?

Yes but wouldnt he be the one who was last in the line for production who would know if it went to the next step? What i'm saying is there are a ton of projects that get killed along the way like the wish you were here 5.1 project. So wouldnt stephen be the one who would send it off to get pressed (once?) I do agree that there has to be more than one copy of this. (Yes i know its never been confirmed blah blah blah)

 

Sure - when the item itself is the story, not for any old assortment of crap.

 

Oh, right on. Since you mentioned spectrum analysis I thought you were asking about the source used for the SACD.

I doubt Stephen would be the one responsible for making arrangements with the manufacturer. It's quite common to finish a project, have it mastered and then have it sit on the record label shelves for years. Once we're done mastering it's out of our hands.

 

I think Rocks and King Crimson's In The Court Of...were both on the cover of Acoustic Sound's catalog early in the decade. I'm sure it was supposed to happen. Neither of the pair ever did.

 

Well they made the 5.1 project with Steve Wilson for King Crimson.

 

Up to $810.00. Six days to go . . .

 

I'm happy that Eddie is offering Free Shipping on that one!

 

There should be more copies ! Is anyone of you in contact to SONY employees who knew more about SONY´s SACD efforts (Distribution, promos) in the early days of that format. By the way my german neighbour! Have you ever heard about a SACD copy of "Conspiracy of one" by THE OFFSPRING. Between 2003 and 2004 there was one copy in the SACD shelve of SATURN - Hansarin / Cologne for almost a year. Just when I decided to buy that single layer disc it was gone!
