Hi everyone,

Just wondering what everyone else is having a hard time finding these days in order to complete their collections?

Here's my partial list:

Fleetwood Mac 'Rumours' DVD-A
Emerson Lake & Palmer 'Brain Salad Surgery' DVD-A
Alan Parsons 'I Robot' DVD-A
Eric Johnson 'Ah Via Musicom' DVD-A
Joni Mitchell 'Both Sides Now' DVD-A
Doors 'LA Woman' DVD-A
Eagles 'Hotel California' DVD-A
Stevie Ray Vaughan 'Couldn't Stand The Weather' SACD

I realize we have a wish list, but not every SACD is available and DVD-A is obviously not covered here.

Cheers,

Dan

Actually, I'm in search of a 2004 multichannel/stereo release that no one seems to know much about.

Here's the link: http://product.half.ebay.com/Couldnt-Stand-The-Weather-SACD-TBA_W0QQtgZinfoQQprZ3504066

If someone can take a photo of the title as presented in the above link, then isn't it likely to have been officially released?

The MC "Couldn't Stand the Weather" was announced but never released.

The Doors L.A. Woman DVD-A has been re-released as part of the Box Perception Box DVD-A set together with the other Doors albums.
The MC and stereo mixes are exactly the same, but the version in the Box sounds a bit warmer and more open than the previous edition, so I do not see any reason to buy the old one and not the new one... Get the full boxset, it is just awesome!

Yes, but the item shown in the above link is a bonafide copy of an SACD, is it not? Puzzling to me.

Thanks for the tip...

And has anyone yet bought the Donald Fagen DVD-Audio boxset that just came out? What are your opinions?

It's taken me a while to get hold of Paul Van Dyk: Reflections . I've seen it offered on eBay and Amazon for prices up to 140 euro or so. When I stumbled upon it in the end (on Amazon.de) it was favourably prices but it's almost impossible to get hold of. It's rarely on offer.

Still on my wish list is Texas: Careful What You Wish For, currently on Amazon.co.uk at prices ranging from GBP 42 up to 372. That's USD 749!

But at least that one's still for sale somewhere. Groove Armada: Love Box I can't find anywhere. Last time one was sold on eBay, some months ago (and I check this a couple of times per week) it went for over %$100, I believe.
