Genesis - Selling England by the Pound SACD

I'll have to give it another listen, but I don't recall the sound on my copy of SEBTP on Famous Charisma as being inferior to the others (even though my copy has a lot of wear).

It is definitely produced and mixed differently...it has a softer and more pastoral theme and sound overall. Perhaps noise during vinyl playback is more of an issue as a result.

It could just be a result of inconsistent production quality on the various vinyl releases. Sound quality on rock albums in general was heading south for various reasons towards the middle 70's IMHO.

The SACD box will be released in late December in time for Christmas I suppose.

This new set is also going to be on vinyl. Anybody know if the first two SACD boxes were also issued in lp form?

Genesis 1970-1975 SACD set (with PAL video) has been released; got my copy yesterday. Absolutely fabulous in SACD 5.1 - a must buy IMO! I think the SACD set with NTSC video may be a bit harder to come by.

I do not believe the earlier sets were released on vinyl.

Sandynsimon,

I'd be curious how the sound of the 2 channel CD mix compares?
