5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Album, Awesome 5 Channel Mix, April 27, 2004

It's amazing to think that this Classic Album was produced back in 1973, I Was majorly impressed with the release of the Digitally Remastered CD & then the SACD 5 Channel Release was very impressive, But there has never been a Better sounding Version of this Album than This DVD-Audio. I personally believe that DVD-Audio has a cleaner sound than a corresponding SACD release.

AS a Music Guru ( Molly )here in Australia would say "DO Yourself a Favor" and Even If your not a complete Elton Fan like myself GO and buy this release and see what A true CLASSIC Album sounds like now in 2004 in Awesome 5 Channel DVD-Audio sound.

Hybrid/SACD's are the new wave in music, but this DVD version is right up there with the SACD format. This is one of them - one of Elton John's greatest achievements. I compared this Hybrid to my regular SACD and CD versions. The sound is crisper and definitely separated between the five speakers (not counting the subwoofer). The rear speakers accentuated guitars and synthesizers/keyboards I had never heard before. Sure, it's more expensive, but buy it and sell your old version on Amazon! This also sounds great on just a regular CD player. "Funeral For A Friend" sounds like a new recording in this format and the extra songs are a welcome addition. I can't wait until more CD's are re-released in this format.
