Japan released SUPERB HDCD "remasters" of Neil Young (ST) through Reactor. The only cd missing of course, was Time Fades Away. In 2007 though, Neil was once again, due to the popularity of these Japanese releases, considering releasing Time Fades Away once again. He approved a handful of "Promotional only" silver, HDCD masters, to be sent to key market heads. These of course became INSTANT mega-collectibles. I happened to "steal" one on E-bay, for 60.00. The sound is EXACTLY like the other Japanese HDCD's, as well as the first 4 NY releases, as well as On the Beach, American Stars and Bars, Hawks and Doves, and Reactor. Journey Through the Past, Tonights the Night, Zuma, Comes a Time, Rust never Sleeps, Live Rust, as well as Stills Young Band, Long May You Run, are ALL REMARKABLE HDCD "Japanese Remasters". They are MEGA rare now, but keep an eye out on E-bay and Amazon. Copies periodically pop up, and will run you between 30 and 80 dollars U.S. usually. I HIGHLY doubt Neil will release these at all in the States, as the other 8 mentioned above, did not sell well in the U.S. market, and many can be found in the cut out bins now, which is VERY SAD. Along with the Eagles, Bad company Neil Youngs original cd's were in the MOST dire need of remastering. His U.S. fans should have made a bee line to these, JACKED up sales, which may have made him re-think releasing the other 6 mentioned above, though I still doubt he will EVER release Time Fades Away. Good hunting.!!!Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13891339351273903048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155039173386175412.post-69828758140551643162011-11-03T21:01:11.841-04:002011-11-03T21:01:11.841-04:00I have one of the few original "silver" ...I have one of the few original "silver" Japan Promo HDCD Pressings. It is AWESOME.!!! Neil is VERY strange when it comes to his refusal to release this on cd...I dont even think that NYAII will have it. I believe it will have some live stuff maybe from the era, but I just dont think he will ever release this cd. Too bad, because along with On The Beach, it is his BEST IMHO. I am glad I found this pristine HDCD Original, silver pressing though. I just wish he would release it for everyone else.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13891339351273903048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155039173386175412.post-78458439070090524072011-07-24T08:08:36.161-04:002011-07-24T08:08:36.161-04:00Many thanks for this fantastic album and olso for ...Many thanks for this fantastic album and olso for "FLAC"...kobilicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06970501075601595268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155039173386175412.post-22806959799228824572011-07-06T23:17:33.072-04:002011-07-06T23:17:33.072-04:00@Paul: Could be.

Aren't HDCD files, in essence, 20-bit files (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Definition_Compatible_Digital)? I know programs like dbPoweramp will rip the 16-bit HDCD files as 24-bit wav files.<br /><br />Can these files be written to a disc as HDCD? That is, will it be an HDCD-encoded disc then? Or will it play like an HDCD when played in a disc player that doesn't have the HDCD chip?

I've cherished a vinyl copy of this record for 30+ years. It's been played nearly to death. I even ripped the songs to MP3 about 10 years ago on my old Mac 7600. I can assure that these tracks will receive heavy rotation once the DL is done. If this was available on CD, it would be in my collection.<br /><br />Also, thanks for the background on the recording. Some of the stuff was on Thrasher's Wheat, but not the detail about the recordings themselves. I had no clue there were so many parts to each track.<br /><br />Cheers!zweiradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05771646029376763132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155039173386175412.post-47990653261113553782010-11-09T04:07:36.912-05:002010-11-09T04:07:36.912-05:00Thank you very much, your blog is great!Thank you very much, your blog is great!Merlo.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06546382141332517618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155039173386175412.post-66983102559747399922010-06-20T15:23:30.801-04:002010-06-20T15:23:30.801-04:00@bibit: thanks for the kind words.
