Santana Ultra Disc II 24K Gold by Mobile Fidelity

Has anybody heard the Santana Album on the New Ulra Disc
II Gold CD format manufactured by Mobile Fidedlity? This is the album with Evil Ways, Soul Sacrifice and Jingo to name the more popular of the songs. I would spend the $24.99 if the sound is super. I already own the LP from the
60's, but would go with the Cd if the sound was truly
superior. The cd can be found on Elusive Disc and Music Direct.
Thanks for your responses.

I received the re-mastered CD of Caravanserai the other day, and must say I was astounded at the sound -- incredible! Very, very close to the two from MoFi.

The Legacy edition of Santana III is also excellent, if a little piercing at the top end at odd moments and high volume.

The RBCD remaster is indeed from 2003. There is a Japanese import from 2006 that is an SACD.
