Anyone heard the new Moody Blues SACDs yet?


I ordered mine from the Elusive Disc but I don't expect they will arrive until next week. I'm pretty anxious to give these a listen. Anyone here had the chance to listen to these yet? What do you think? If you own the MoFi Cd's, how do they compare? Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

I got my set from Amazon.UK on Friday and have been very impressed. I've mainly been sitting back and enjoying them, but I did a couple of quick comparisons on Threshhold and Children's Children of the SACD and CD layers and with my redbook Threshold, and there's no comparison -- the SACD layer of both have more depth, subtlety of tone, spatial info, pretty much better in every way. Days of Future Past is the one that has grabbed me the most in terms of sound quality so far. I've been a Moodys fan since around 1970 and have heard lots of versions of these albums and my gut impression is these are the best I've heard yet. I'm hoping if these sell well maybe SACD reissues of classic rock albums will continue at least in Europe.
