Yeah I noticed this. Anybody reckon this is an error and all tracks will be available in a way to get the main album in hi-res?

No, those videos are not coming from the DVD / Bluray. That is one of the angles I used for it, but it is a multi camera edit. The primary video being Professional footage from the band filmed by the band archivist Kevin Shuss and filled in with 4 other HD angles and synced with the soundboard. Allon (Cockage) lol...however was a major contributor to 4 of the 5 songs on the Bluray/DVD

Thanks. So that is 7 tracks less than the 2 cd set and not including Angel of Fire and Black Cat.
Still not sure what version of this to buy then.

Did you buy this version? Have you had a listen yet? Cheers!

Was sent this copy, as HDtracks excludes Canadians & everyone outside the USA to purchase / download digital downloads for some reason.

Heard it this afternoon. It's fantastic! Will be loaded on to my Pono player tonight.

Any reviews on the sound? I fear lots of compression.

Listening right now with some headphones and Bib & Tucker.. I think it sounds pretty good. Much cleaner and, like all remasters lately a little louder. No complaints. I love the Adam Kasper Mix of Say Hello 2 heaven. Stripped down and a haunting sound. It will become the version I listen to the most.

When Jeff says stuff like this, it really doesn't give you much hope:

"Brendan's just so great. When he remixed Ten, he didn't really mess with the levels. He just pulled back maybe a little on the effects and the reverb. The new mix is just a little bit crisper. In the last 25 years, the way we listen to music is so different. People have gotten used to a lot of clarity at the top end. I think he really brought a lot of that out."

Here's the objective numbers:

================================================================================

I suppose it could be a lot worse. The new mix sounds pretty good to these ears. The instrument separation is one of the first things you notice. Wooden Jesus is the second thing you notice, as it sounds incredible (who plays banjo on the track?).

The thing that I noticed listening to the new mix is how guitar heavy this album is. It makes me long for the days where Stone was writing riff after riff for Ten or Temple of the Dog.

ski-bum

I've been thinking that since they stopped letting Stone write everything.
