Elton John SACD releases

I recently bought Madman Across the Water and think it sounds great. Better IMO than GBYBR.

I prefer both of these recording in stereo as opposed to multi-channel. Elton's vocals are still crystal clear and the depth across the front is retained where it thins out a little in multi-channel. As for Madman, the stereo is so enveloping it sounds like it's in surround! An excellent recording and I was very impressed.

I just bought Madmann Across the Water and Elton John. I am listening to Elton John as I right this and I love this album. It ticks(pisses) me off that I have lived this long being an EJ fan and have never heard this album. This SACD Hybrid is simply wonderfull.

I think that the Super Audio Center in Boulder Colorado is doing it right! These discs were mastered there. I read also that the new John Hiatt album is being done there.

Agreed. Captain Fantastic is the gem of this crop.

I finally listened to these discs in multi-channel. Also very nice. I still prefer two-channel, however.
