The Multichannel version
Just one word. . Awesome! If you have an SACD player, you should treat yourself to this great mix.


excellent!

Just buy it!. Excellent example of what SACD is capable of, when engineered correctly.


Great SACD Mix
I bought the multichannel SACD because of the great reviews I've been reading. I always liked Satriani's Strange Beautiful Music. Let me tell you, I was not disappointed! Of all the 5. 1 channel discs I have, this has, by far, the best mix. If you like the stereo version of this CD and have a good 5. 1 system, you'll definitely enjoy this one!

How bad can good sound be?
I should have been more careful considering the artist Joe Satriani was and always will be. I bought this cd after I read the glorious reviews about the fabulous multichannel sound quality of this product. It's all about technique and shape and not about substance or 'songs'. Good instrumental electric guitar music is rare, but this cd has only ONE memorable song on it. That is too little. . .

There is a lack of wanting to play an original song or melody. The horror.

So, be warned when you think about buying it due to the raving reviews below. This cd will be sold by me instantly.

A waste of time and money.


Awesome SACD and album
Right from the first track, this album sounded pretty awesome, over my 7. I'm only a casual Satriani fan, and haven't listened to many of his albums but decided to get this one based on the good reviews and the relative dearth of SACD rock/pop albums. 1 polk speakers. The surround mix is very well done, and really gives you a sense of 3-dimensionality of the music. The music itself is pretty good, most are solid JS tunes, better than his average I would say. His 'Sleepwalk' cover is really nice and mellow. As a previous reviewer stated, this album is a must-own for any SACD fan. Play this for the uninitiated, and I bet they will get into SACD as well. All you need is a PS3 and a 5. 1 (or more) audio system! Also recommended are Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon (awesome!) and Roxy Music's Avalon. Both are classic albums with great SACD multi-channel mixes. All are must-haves!.
