    Chicago Transit Authority SACD?

    How in the hell did I miss this? It is stereo but the reviews have been astounding raving about the sound quality. Anyone buy it yet?

    Is this a true surround-sound mix, or a 2-track separation like Renaissance's Scheherazade? --Peter

    From what I have been able to read about it it is 2.0 STEREO.

    This album was released a few years back as a 4 channel surround mix DVD under the Rhino Handmade label. Sounded really good. Haven't heard the SACD.

    I believe this album was released on SQ Quadraphonic vinyl and Quad-8 tape back in the dark ages, along with all of their later album releases up through about 1978.

    So, there should be a 4.1 mix of the album in the vaults.

    Rhino Handmade put out a dvd of the quad mix several years ago but it's now out of print[I have a copy btw.....it's worth tracking down if you can find it].

    One of the best sounding albums of all time. Crank it up!

    I just bought CTA for $10 at FYE..not sure it's any kind of special reissue, but what a crackerjack of a debut.
