The 5.1 versions of these songs bring a new life to these great songs. You can really hear all the musical instraments that made these recordings great and truly show off the excellent voice of Marvin Gaye. I just wish that more Mowtown allstars had 5.1 mixes of there music.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
clean, open, fresh, spacious...Like hearing Marvin Gaye again for the very first time! The engineering mostly tends to be very realistic in the 5.1 SACD mix. not to gimmicky with the surround (which is okay, perhaps even favorable with hip-hop, or Pink Floyd, but not so much with other genres, such as classical, or this style of more organic R&B) Conclusion: A must-have for any audiophile, or classic R&B enthusiast who owns a Super Audio Compact Disc player! -Lord Byron
Vocals are crisp and clear. Music comes through well. Still, some songs feel like they are missing something. Rated a 4 out of 5 for that reason. With that said, I would still say that this SACD is a must have for any Marvin Gaye fan or anyone who appreciates the upgraded sound of SACD.
These are great Motown tunes and in SACD you have the realism of a Multichannel mix. This is a great SACD collection of Marvin Gaye's best songs. Anyone would love this SACD. Quadraphonic and SACD Music Lover.
Great music compilation, A+. The sound is B+. Lack of deep bass and the highs are somewhat too bright , even in SACD layer mode.
