Mine arrived yesterday and the SACD layers seem to be undetecatable by my machine. The disc just registers as an ordinary CD. Is anyone else having this problem? Tried other SACD’s and they all work fine on my player.

Could this possibly the THE worst cover artwork presentation EVER?

Good to see a Billy Joel title (albeit a weaker one) getting the multi-channel treatment.

Hopefully AF will do the same for Piano Man and Turnstiles (both of which had quad mixes back in the day) when Mofi’s licenses expire on those albums.

(Will never understand why Mofi didn’t release them with a multi-channel option in the first place!)

Thanks Paul. As ever you’re on top of releases and this was one I missed. I was wondering why Mobile Fidelity skipped this album in their recent Billy Joel SACD series. Now I know why. Thanks for the post. Ordered!
