Editorial Reviews

This DTS CD is an out of print collectible! It is a DTS Entertainment release. Catalog 69286-01063-2-1. There is a saw cut on the spine of the case. The top hinge of the case has broken off. Digital surround requires a DTS-capable playback system.

nothing like the sun has always been my favourite sting album and one of my all-time favourite CDs. this new DTS re-mix adds a whole new dimension. the original version was a very complex, multi-layered recording that required a damn good hi-fi to unravel all the various strands. in fact, the delicate piano that plays from one speaker on little wing has been my test of a good hi-fi for years. on poor systems, you hardly hear the piano at all. this recording makes use of the full 5 speakers in a surround-sound set-up and skillfully unravels the music, revealing nuances and instruments that were buried in the undercurrent. the lead vocals stay locked to the centre speaker, creating an almost-live, 3D experience that surrounds you in music. if you like sting, and you own a DTS surround-sound system, then you MUST buy this cd. don't be put off by the lacklustre DTS re-mix of ten summoner's tales - this is far superior.

I am a Sting fan so, this is a review of the DTS mix. I reviewed Ten Summoner's Tales(DTS) and this one. I have to say, ...Nothing Like The Sun was mixed and sounds better. Clear, crisp sound comes from everywhere! If you have a DTS-capable system, this is "required listening". DTS has the capability of bringing out suttle things you never knew existed! I would have given this cd/dvd 5 stars except, I'm not happy that "We'll Be Together" is "not" the original version!:( "Hats Off" to David Tickle & Rod Michaels. Special note: Hiram Bullock's work on "Little Wing" sounds great!

To date, I own three DTS discs - Steely Dan - Gaucho; and Sting - Brand New Day - Nothing Like the Sun.

Since there are plenty of reviews, I will get to the bottom line. All three of these DTS discs have an excellent transfer to 5.1 DTS sound. There is the obvious separation of sound/music and back up vocals through the surround speakers and nice bass.

The only drawback is the listener has to be in the central position ("Sweet Spot") to fully enjoy the 5.1 sound. So, if you have the time to relax and enjoy the music, definitely buy all three.
