After buying a couple of Spyro Gyra SACDs ('Wrapped in a Dream' & 'Good to Go-Go') from ebay, I've been browsing there for some more bargains. Unfortunately, most are priced ridiculously high there lately plus shipping costs now seem to be off the clock.
In desperation, I went into SG's website & found 3 more SACD releases for $20 each plus $12 shipping so I ordered them - 'In Modern Times' (2001); 'Original Cinema' (2002); & 'The Deep End' (2004). All are on the 'Heads Up' label (TELARC affiliate). I prefer their releases since 2000 as they are more uptempo & dynamic than their earlier efforts.
Now my 5-disc carousel player is fully populated with SG SACDs. While I still prefer my first 2 discs for musical content, these are most enjoyable as well. They are superb, uncompressed recordings that sport some of the fullest sounding music that I have experienced in my large collection. The depth & power of SG's percussion & electric bass sections is simply awesome. They are really impressive when played through a system that can effortlessly reach down low like my EP400s...
