~ Release by Roxy Music (see all versions of this release, 33 available)

Annotation

* Both CD layer and SACD layer on this Hybrid SACD feature the album in its original 10-track form.

* Track "11", "Always Unknowing" is accessible only on the 5.1 SACD layer.

* The Redbook CD layer of this SACD is NOT actually HDCD-encoded the way all other CD releases of this remaster were and as the label claims, as can be verified by running the WAV files through FFMPEG's HDCD decoder. The CD artwork was reused for the SACD, and the HDCD logo was incorrectly left in.
