Last of the decently priced SACD’s - Popular Rock

[LMonaco]

Hi guys. I would like this to be a thread for some decently priced SACD’s (pop rock) that we could all use.
I would like these disks to be part of your personal collection so if someone wants to know if they are worth buying - you can give them your own advice. Please no sellers - just people helping other people out. If there is enough interest maybe I’ll (or someone else can) start one for DVD-Audio.

I just crossed referenced my library at SACDnet, all but one of these you can get thru Amazon.

This is a great idea.

I would like to add some of my favorites that are still available at Amazon to the list. These are also available in other places like Amazon UK for less. BTW, IMO any good SACD priced below $40 is still decent.

The Police Every Breath You Take: The Classics $38.99

Genesis Invisible Touch $37.99

Depeche Mode Ultra $37.99

[LMonaco]

Forgot one.

Under $5.00

Rolling Stones: Sympathy For The Devil

Thanks ManUtd.
The more the merrier.

Doesn't this require some sort of membership or something?

Yes, you are forced to purchase at least one album per month, for $6.99 shipped. It might be worth it if the selection was better, but all the major labels have dropped YourMusic except Universal and its subsidiaries.

Yep. It is $6.99 a month. For the price of membership, you receive one CD of your choice per month. Just like Netflix, you can build a queue of CDs that will automatically ship - one per month. Each CD you purchase is $6.99, 2-CD sets are $13.98. All prices include shipping.

Sounds like a cool deal. I just hope they've got a wide selection of genre's...

Good thread BTW.

So sad that there (almost) won't be any new pop/rock releases.

Hope one day Blu-ray Audio wil get the support of Major Record Companies (Stereo Mix + Surround Mix), but that's wishful thinking I'm afraid.

I see that both places have it on back order. What do you guys think are the chances that they can actually get this OOP album? I'd like to add this to my collection.

My bad, I didn't go that far to order them. I guess the best bet is if any are left - that they go to clear them out.

The chances are likely zero.
