I love the fact I'm much more picky about what I buy now. The little elf in my library is telling me "Stop, stop, stop it!" - but I sometimes get the feeling that CD's are being phased out, and thus I have fallen for the hard-copy, retro and second hand market. I also believe that my hard-copy collection is a permanent record of my own journey through music. And I tend to get sentimental at times when thinking back of the days when my Dad took the seven-year old boy to see and hear "Star Wars IV". John William's pre-Corona concerts in Vienna were historical milestones in every respect, worth taking up some extra space at home.

Seems like a waste of money. I spent the most on a limited golden LP. I got the Blu ray for free for professional purposes (review), the CD was inexpensive, and the 2CD ... Well, I want to have a complete program also on CD, especially since I attended both concerts in person last January at Musikverein. So it was a special event for me, the most important in my entire life when it comes to music. When I buy this edition, in a way I will say again: "Thank you Maestro". Normally I tend to avoid collecting different versions of the same or similar thing.

Gurkensalat 340 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 I don´t understand why they made the SACD stereo only. They had already excellent multichannel tracks from the Blu-ray, which sound much better then the stereo tracks. Why not slap then on the SACD, too? Technically this is no problem. Stereo only this is not interesting for me; with a Multichannel track I would consider buying it in addition to the BD. Amer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Rick 1,157 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 So I pre-ordered the 2CD live set a couple days ago and Amazon said arriving Tuesday. I check this morning and it shows in stock with delivery tomorrow, so I canceled my original order and placed new order to get it earlier. Then I get an email from Amazon saying my order couldn't be canceled Oh well, I'll just not open the 2nd one I get and return it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
