Summary: An all time favorite
Comment: Despite Amazon's description that the album was released in 2003, the record was actually released in the early '80s... 1982 to be exact... vinyl 12"... 2 sides and handle with kid gloves to keep away additional snap crackle pop that we had to live with in those days. The album has remained a high point in my collection though I have retired the vinyl to storage and replaced it with CD. I think so much of it that it is a favorite CD to give away to new people in my life on occasion. And I always purchase new ones to give away... it just has more class, doesn't cost much and makes a better impression. I very highly recommend this amazing sounding CD.

Comment: Very nice SACD, the 2 channel version is great, the multichannel surround version is great in a different way.
Nice SACD!

Summary: A Great Album Gets Better With Age! And a 5.1 Re-Mix!
Comment:
When I first heard this CD I was living in Germany in the middle 80's in Frankfurt while in the USAF... Being lucky enough to live across the street from an Audio Video store I listened to alot of music being used as "demo" music on a lot of nice systems... Although only stereo, this CD quickly grew on me it's definitely not an 80's sounding recording as Aja is not a 70's sounding recording! The stereo version of this album is beautiful the 5.1 SACD is "Figgin Sweet!"
If you have have an SACD player and you can get a copy of "Avalon", DO IT!!!! If you only have a stereo, get the stereo version!

Summary: Steller work
Comment: I dont have much to say about the actual content. We all know how amazing Roxy is. Iam mainly writing the review for SACD quality. It is very well done. It is very hard to get a excellent sound stage while using 5 speakers. The stage never floats, instruments are very well balanced. Voice comes out nice and clear. Stage feels large and deep, with lot air.
If you are looking for one definitive SACD this is it. Again there are few other good ones too.
