SQ of "Rock of Ages" on CD

I guess you got shortchanged on the SACD but your ear for sound quality was confirmed.by R.Robertson and Bob Clearmountain.  

Rock of Ages is, and always was, a poorly recorded and mixed LP. I have it, a big Band fan, and rarely if ever spin it.

Unfortunate

Yeah-- I dunno about about SACD SQ (never owned an SACD player) but I've found the Redbook SQ of MoFi hybrids to be very inconsistent. Some are quite good, others just meh-- most definitely not worth the money. 

As far as the Band album is concerned, I thought I'd have to buy the out of print box but there's a 2CD set that's still available with the same tunes as the Deluxe version. Might as well try it.

Have you heard the Academy of Music mix?

Usually only buy vinyl, so no. There are a couple vinyl remasters by both Capital and MoFi, but haven’t given much consideration to purchasing either.
