Whatever happened to Virgin releasing SACD's?

[Steve w]

They released Tubuler Bells last year in Austrailia and I've never seen an SACD release from them since.

Good Listening..

Actually Tubular Bells has Stereo and Multichannel SACD tracks on the same SACD disc. And it's a fine SACD - be sure to get a copy if you have an SACD player and you don't own it already!

In addition to the Virgin SACDs you list, several more are scheduled in the months ahead including Ennio Morricone "The Mission", Brian Eno "Ambient 1: Music for Airports", Adiemus "Songs of Sanctuary", Roxy Music "Best of Roxy Music", Michael Nyman "Music from The Piano", King Crimson "In The Court of King Crimson".

I am hoping they release Sticky Fingers by the Stones on SACD. You'd think if they can get the rights to release those LP "remastered" CD's that they could ge tthe right's to release it on SACD!

make that the remastered cd's in the LP style packaging

Well, we all know that EMI has been having some major problems. They are going to move Virgin's base from LA to NYC and combine it's operations with Capitol.
