I agree with everyone on the sonics of this album. This is a great demo SACD. I did not pay much attention to the whole theme but just like the music by itself. I am not a jass enthusiast but this CD as well as a few others have quickly converted me. I think a lot of it is the realism you get with ... more

This is definitely one of my favorite SACD's and I am not really a Who fan. Pete Townsend must have loved remixing this in Super Audio. I enjoy starting at Pinball Wizard and listening to the end. The first part of the album gets a tad boring. Pinball Wizard sounds amazing. The second CD is also fun ... more
