  • Classic!!!
Like LiStening to it for the first time. This is my favorite (at the moment) Elton John album. The remix is awesome, and makes it feel like I'm listening to it for the first time.

  • I can listen to this album now.
Finally I can listen to this album and not cringe because of the sound quality. This 2014 deluxe edition on 2 CDs sounds so much better than the 30th anniversary double SACD from 2003 (Island/Rocket) that I have. I've been trying to listen to that one off and on for years and would just stop, because it has the most horrible, harsh, sound to it. That should never be the case with SACDs, but they managed to mess that one up. But on this one the amazing Bob Ludwig worked his remastering magic. It's still not the most fantastic recording production out there, but it's very listenable now. And the music (goes without saying) is fantastic. The extra material on CD 2 is great to have, and that production quality is excellent. ... show more

  • Better than it ought to be (and other things)
By now, anybody checking out this listing will already be familiar with Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, so this will be more a review of the overall package than of the album itself—though I will say that it is still Elton John's best album. The remastering of the album proper is better than it ought to be. After pressing 'play', I was surprised that I didn't immediately have to turn the volume down to counter slabs of brickwalled sound (it's still louder than the 1992 remaster, but not as much as the 1996 remaster). A quick rip of 'Bennie and the Jets' showed waveforms with actual contour, and no signs of clipping—a very nice surprise, indeed. That means you should be able to listen to the album at a decent volume without suffering from ear fatigue before you get to side 2 of the original LP. The 'Revisited & Beyond' disc is a bit of a puzzler. To be fair, it has been noted that there was little unreleased material from the sessions left in the vaults, but the covers still seem unnecessary. That most of the covers aren't bad (except for the sloppy hip-hop rendering of 'Bennie and the Jets') doesn't make up for that. As for the actual Elton John material that is included on the disc, most of it appears to have been included on the 30th Anniversary Edition (which I skipped). But what really appears odd is the inclusion of 'Philadelphia Freedom' and 'Pinball Wizard', both of which were released in 1975—well after the Caribou album, and a few weeks ahead of Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy. Discs 3 and 4 contain a concert recorded at London's Hammersmith Odeon by the BBC. It's too bad this wasn't released back in the '70s; it's easily superior to the highly polished Here and There live album (one of those 'contractual obligation' releases)—and you still get Ray Cooper's 'duck call' solo in 'Honky Cat'. For most folks, disc 5 will be the reason to opt for this edition. Disc 5, of course, is a DVD of the 1973 documentary Elton John & Bernie Taupin Say Goodbye Norma Jean and Other Things, which has never been available on home video before now. Long-time fans (in the US, anyway) will probably remember the documentary from its screening as a special episode of ABC's In Concert. The video is surprisingly fuzzy; without updated credits, it is unclear how much (if any) work was done to clean it up for video release. It's also surprisingly short (45 minutes)—but then the aforementioned In Concert was a 90-minute program. The documentary itself is still entertaining. There are plenty of concert clips (including the intro from the famous Hollywood Bowl concert) for those who want to hear the music, footage shot during the recording of the album, and interview segments with. In the interviews, Elton John comes off as quite humble and self-deprecating, even as he expresses some lofty ambition ('I'd like to become a legend…'). The 100-page hardcover book that accompanies the package is quite nice. There's a decent essay, lots of photos, and (of course) the song lyrics. It's nicely put together; if sold as a stand-alone item, it could probably sell for half the price of the full box set. The book is also frustrating in spots. (1) The song lyrics are interspersed throughout the book—interrupting the essay—and, though the accompanying illustrations from the LP are kept, the lyrics themselves are printed only in black, and all in Gill Sans (or a similar typeface), instead of the different-color typewriter typeface used on the original LP. (2) The essay does not have a clear ending. After reading what turned out to be the last page, I expected more to follow—only to get 40 pages consisting mostly of photos of Elton John's Bob Mackie-designed stage costumes instead. (3) The credits are woefully inadequate. With this kind of 'super deluxe' treatment, one would expect to see information on original release dates and catalog numbers at least. Plus there's nothing to explain the connection of 'Philadelphia Freedom' or 'Pinball Wizard' to the Goodbye Yellow Brick Road story. Quibbling aside, Universal kept the album proper to a single disc this time, included lots of material for the price, and gave the set nice packaging. It even sounds good. But it's the inclusion of the documentary that made this a must-buy for me. ... show more

  • 2nd copy great
1st copy I had had a scratch/smug mark on the actual record. I sent for a replacement and 2nd copy is perfect.

  • An Audiophile Wet Dream
This review is not about the actual recording of GOODBYE YELLOW BRICK ROAD. I will go that most people, if not all, have some form of this recording, be it vinyl, cassette, CD or SACD. This is about the blu ray audio. This is my first blu ray audio I have purchased. It looks like I will be converting my SACD and CD collection over yet once again as more titles are released. First and foremost, this format will NOT play on a conventional DVD or CD player, you must own a blu ray. Second, because of the audio formats, it also helps if your blu ray player can play DTS-HD, TrueHD, PCM or DTS 5.1. Luckily my OPPO player plays all that and SACD, so I can decide on the format I wish to hear. The sound. Unparalleled. First the "surround" format is the SACD format, so if you have the SACD (which I do), you can give away the SACD. Not only is it the SACD format, BUT because it is on blu ray, like blu ray picture, the sound is that much crisper...you can hear musicians breathing. Of the three "stereo" formats - DTS, TrueHD and PCM, the weakest of the three is the TrueHD. As with TrueHD blu ray video/and the audio track on those blu rays, it is much quieter and subdued...you have to turn the volume up substantially, and the mix is identical to the DTS mix, just not as dynamic. The DTS and PCM mixes are without a doubt, the two stereo options. Like with all DTS, it is a more dynamic sound range, jumps out of the speakers. It is a full, crystal clear sound and very closely resembles the original vinyl mix (slight, slight changes). The difference between the DTS mix and the "remastered" version Island issued back in the early 2000s is very noticeable. While I thought the remastered was a vast improvement over the original CD, just as SACD was a vast improvement over the remastered, this is light years better. The balance between speakers and the mid section sound is much more pronounced, giving an overall better "stereo" experience. The PCM version is terms of mix is the DTS mix, but with the vocals much more pronounced. The vocals are more out front or "louder" than on the DTS mix, that would be the only difference that I was able to distinguish. Again, I am not speaking about this recording in terms of its musical validity or not...you either like the LP or you do not. I selected this as my first blu ray audio to purchase only because there are only about 20-25 to select from and I thought this was the safest bet. As more titles come available, I will be converting. Another expensive musical transition...but worth it. *****ADDENDUM: It has baffled me for two days why I sense a difference between the SACD and DTS 5.1 version. Tonight I found the answer after listening to my vinyl copy. The blu ray 5.1 DTS is the correct speed. The SACD version is sped up slightly. The blu ray 5.1 DTS is the way the song tempos are to sound, identical to the vinyl if played on a direct drive table (I always found that belt drives speed the LP up slightly). The most noticeable difference and what made me go back to the vinyl is Elton's pronunciation. The SACD on many songs sound "garbled" On the blu ray 5.1 you can understand every single word, especially on YOUR SISTER CAN TWIST and SATURDAY NIGHT. I am still unsure if I like blu ray 5.1 DTS better than SACD, but what a difference hearing it at the correct speed makes.***** ... show more
