The 5.1 surround mix was created from the 1970's quad masters, and they alone make the CD worth having, because they're "new" and the music does surround you. The 5.1 mix is also nowhere near as compressed as the rest of the disc. Read on.
The "normal" stereo CD version on this disc, and the stereo SACD version sound good upon first listen, but they're compressed very badly. Unfortunately almost all new "remasters" suffer from this; to make them louder they compress the sound. One of the reasons we fell in love with CD's in the first place was the dynamic range...the difference between the quiet and loud passages. On most new remasters, as crisp and clear as they may sound, they seem to have mastered them with iPods or car stereos in mind. Most of the discs maintain the same level throughout. That's great when listening with cheap earbuds on the train, or above the road noise on your car stereo. But louder isn't always better. On a really good home system these new discs tell a tale.
If you compare this disc to the Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab 24-karat gold (audiophile) version that was released in the late 80's/early 90's, you'll see that it has much more headroom and breathing room in it. And the Mo-Fi version is just as crisp and clean, if not cleaner. These new Moody Blues remasters are a bit more fatiguing to listen to. They're more "in your face all the time" if that makes sense. Almost like FM radio. By direct comparison, these new versions sound aggressively rude.
Don't get me wrong, they beat the heck out of the first couple of versions released by Decca/Polygram/Deram/Threshold. And the extra tracks and the surround mix are enjoyable. I'm glad Justin Hayward took the time to remaster these, but I just wish he'd have stopped before they applied all the compression to them.
Sonically, the original stereo vinyl album, was a success - it sounded fantastic. This DTS version of the album gives us an immersive surround mix which although sometimes strange (strings from rear channels) is still compelling. The high point is Pinder's soaring Mellotron during `Nights', which is the outstanding track on the album. On the negative side, there are no sleeve notes to speak of, so we are none the wiser how this mix was created or who was involved.
So, if you want to hear a surround mix of this album but don't have SACD, this is the way to go.
On some tracks this is more symphony orchestra with rock band rather than the other way around. It makes for pleasant listening, but does give a 'middle of the road' feeling to the album. I usually like my rock to be a little hard edged - but you do need some variety.
I partly purchased this because it has an SACD 5.1 sound mix, and it seems (Mar 2010), this is no longer available new - so I snapped up a nearly new version at a reasonable price while I could.
Disc 2 has the original mono mixes together with BBC studio recordings just add to the quality & value of a his deluxe album.
You will realise what a gem this album is & fairly rare, when you see what other vendors are charging for this 5.1 deluxe version.
