Best "Wish You Were Here"


Just heard "Shine on You Crazy Diamond" on the way home tonight (awesome!) and was wondering what is the best recording of Floyd's "Wish You Were Here". Vinyl or digital is fine. Thanks!

Loss of interest in SACD? There are now over 6,000 releases (check out SACD (dot) NET, a "neutral" reference source).

Yes, the "mass market" American consumer never developed any "interest" and the pop/rock market have "lost interest", but the format is alive and well.

A search found Theo's remark above - sad to say, doesn't seem to be any response from the "powers that be" about WYWH, which has perhaps my favorite saxophone solo - with the right speakers, the imaging is wonderful. Not to mention the high quality of the album as a whole.

"Powers that be" - get WYWH released on surround sound! I'd vote for SACD, but if there's an audio-only Bluray format ready for market (that is, beyond just a theoretical "capability"), then be pioneers in BluRay...

But get WYWH release in surround sound!
