Best Surround Sound albums of 2004....according to your Grammy...
Grammy nominees for best surround sound album of 2004 are in....here... Roxy Music's "Avalon" (SACD), Ray Charles' "Genius Loves Company" (SACD), Mahler's "Symphony No. 4" (SACD), Bonnie Raitt's "Nick of Time" (DVD-A), and Ladysmith Black Mambazo's "Raise Your Spirit Higher" (SACD) as surround sound recordings of 2004...The ceremony takes place on February the 13th, 2005. Unfortunately; I suspect this awarding will occur off camera and will only be mentioned on Grammy's captioning ticker...!

The Band - "The Last Waltz" DVD-A...Scorcese can't dance
The Band's "Last Waltz" as a film and soundtrack is truly a study in contrasts. On the one hand, we hear the rapture of their recorded output...on the other, we bear witness to their sharp decline. One medium perpetuates the myth...the other glorifies the legend.

Elvis Presley - 30 #1 Hits - DVD-A...hunka hunka burnin' hits
.....this is quite an extraordinary collection representing most of the best of Elvis Presley. But given the absence of visual content and a mediocre 5.1 transfer, this collection would've been better represented as a stereo hybrid SACD disc...Thank you...thank you very much...
...Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda hurtle their bikes through deserts of Arizona in search of America. The 5.1 transfer is spectacular. Levon's heavy sticks pound out more pavement than any "peace signed" twin could ever manage. Take that you dope smuggling hippies...
