original field recordings of the best-known songs recorded by

Donovan - Storyteller (hybrid stereo) (Audio Fidelity)  $14.99 
This collection combines British Invasion folk superstar Donovan
Leitch’s Pye/Hickory recordings and his Epic label releases mastered
for SACD by Steve Hoffman. This is definitely the best-sounding rock
SACD Audio Fidelity has put out, albeit many the tracks are in mono
and taken from the UK single mixes. The early solo acoustic recordings
("Catch The Wind", "Universal Soldier") finally have tremendous
presence and the multi-layered psychedelia of "Hurdy Gurdy Man" has
never been as enchanting. 
 
The Rolling Stones - Sympathy For The Devil Remix (hybrid stereo)
(ABKCO)  $6.99 
This EP features the 6 new remixes of the Rolling Stones classic
''Sympathy for the Devil'' done by The Neptunes, Fat Boy Slim. and

the tracks on the album will appear in three different audio formats -
5.1 SACD Surround Sound, SACD Stereo and CD Stereo. 
 
Spandau Ballet - True (hybrid stereo) (imp) (Chrysalis)  $34.99 
From Britain's New Romantic movement of the early '80's, Spandau
Ballet reached their artistic and commercial peak with this new soul
classic, True. The gorgeous and dramatic title cut was a major hit on
both sides of the Atlantic and the rest of the album matches it in
style. This album also includes the hits ''Gold'' and
''Communication''. 
 
Return To Forever - Romantic Warrior (single layer stereo) (imp)
(Sony)  $49.99 
The band's most successful and classic line-up (Chick Corea, Stanley
Clarke, Lenny White, and Al Di Meola) recorded this final album in
1976. A traditional jazz approach tempered with flashes of progressive
rock, baroque voicings and funk. 
 
Barry Manilow - A Christmas Gift Of Love (single layer surround)
(Sony)  $14.99 
Manilow is awash in strings on a set of holiday standards which are
arranged festively. Manilow is in an appropriately festive mood,
really throwing himself into the proceedings and it's his enthusiasm
that makes this Christmas album a winner. This is an enjoyable
Christmas album in a traditional pop style likely to please both
Manilow fans and others. 
 
Neil Norman - Presents Sci-Fi In Hi-Fi (hybrid stereo)(Audio Fidelity)
$15.99

usually relying heavily on synthesizers. This disc was specifically
mastered for SACD by Steve Hoffman. 
 
Florilegium - Volume 1 Haydn ARR. Salomon London Symphonies (hybrid
multichannel) (Channel Classics)  $19.99 
For the listener, these delightful arrangements will come as a
surprise in their much reduced scale compared to Haydn’s original,
well known versions, and they are guaranteed to draw a smile for
Salomon’s quirky choices of instrumentation. For the performer, they
are valuable additions to the chamber repertoire, fully conveying the
enterprising spirit of the late 18th century musical scene.
