You really can't get any better than this on SACD. I have the original CD and the SACD version. This is the night and day type of reaction you get with quite a few SACD versions of albums.

You suddenly realize what you were missing in the music.
I have SACD at home and recently put a Sony MEX-DV2000 (plays SACD)in my car and this was the album I used as my first one to listen to with
the new player in the car. I got that night and day reaction all over again.

I highly recommend this one on SACD.
Buy SACD if you have the player for it. More SACD players for home are becoming available and the home players literally support all other sound formats. Available players that are cost effective Oppo 980H.

Best SACD night and day comparison I have is Billy Joels "The Stranger".
The Multichannel tracks let you actually hear the other musicians on this one. Sounds and feels like a totally different/ but still great album.

As a serious audiophool I enjoyed this disc. While I have no bias toward 2 channel versus multi in general, I preferred the 2 channel mix on this one. Especially on the first track. Part of one of the guitar tracks is missing in the multi mix! The guy is an amazing musician. One star down only because the multi channel mix seemed like more of a "Hey look we what we can do with extra channels!" rather than a carefully thought out master. Buy it for the 2 channel mix and the quality of the performance.

Their sound is awesome and his voice is amazing. You will be missing out on this one if you do not buy it. The entire CD id filled with great songs. You will not regret this pruchase, a must have in any music collection.

Didn't realize that item could not be played on traditional CD player. Ended up returning.
