Edited 2 months agoSorry, just woke up. So the differences between the 2016 edition of Skylarking on BD+CD and this 2024 (re)issue are:
- the latter's Blu-ray removed all 41 tracks of various demo recordings and "work tape" songs found on the 2016 Blu
- the 2024 Blu features the recent Dolby Atmos mix of the proper album (and the instrumentals of the album in Dolby Atmos)
Is there a case to made to get both editions, or are the demos non-essential? -
Another victim of SHODDY BluRay Authoring, the ATMOS mixes of several songs have the first 1 or 2 seconds cut off, not so on the 5.1, so I know it's not my player (hell , I have an OPPO BDP-103D which is NOT cheap), please SDE to ask for a repress, so hard to get a well authored BD these days!!
