Don't buy this if you plan on loading it into a PC
Shouldn't have. I doubted the review below that mentioned how bad the dual-disc is. I wasn't able to load the CD tracks onto either my home or work PCs. And couldn't even play it on my CD player at home. It took a Mac to actually read the files. Bad news. Should be recalled.


Music = excellent, dual-disc = teh suck


Sadly, I haven't been able to LISTEN to it because I can't rip the CD on my PC to load into my iPod. I'd love to rate this on the music alone. I've tried a DVD-RW drive and CD-ROM drive on two different PCs that rip discs with no problems. . . except these. The dual-discs feel as if someone literally took a CD and a DVD and SuperGlued them together. Shoddy.

I really regret not getting the standard CD version.


Much-improved sound on BOTH the CD and DVD sides!!
Haven't listened to the DVD side through big speakers yet, but I'm sure it is even better!! The videos are all really good, especially April Skies, with Jim Reid hanging on a cross, armed with a handgun!
ALL of the JAMC Dual Discs are essential for JAMC fans!!
Oh yeah, and they include extensive, newly written liner notes, too!. Among the JAMC Dual Discs, I really noticed a BIG sound improvement on this CD in particular.
