What is your opinion of After It All? Even though it's been out quite awhile now, I haven't formed a full opinion of it yet.

Pierre Monteux, London Symphony Orchestra - Ravel: Daphnis et Chloé, Elgar: Enigma Variation
Alois Haba - Complete Nonets
King Crimson - Larks' Tongues in Aspic
This is the 40th Anniversary Edition, CD+DVD-A, with the 5.1 mix by Steven Wilson. Absolutely wonderful. A real pain to rip, but I'll get to that. I chanced upon a 40th Anniversary copy of In the Court through...various (possibly questionable) means, and it blew my old copy away (had to downmix it for headphone listening though). The 2004 OME copy that came with it was fantastic too. So grabbed the Larks' copy a few weeks ago. Now with fb2k it's probably not as difficult to rip, but being on *nix, the only real solution was to cut the tracks manually with ffmpeg, or use dvdae. Ended up going with the latter (despite some misgivings) since I didn't really have time for the former. Managed to get the tracks off but had to tag them all manually according to the booklet info.
All in all very enjoyable listening, though the jump from my old copy was not as revelatory as with the In the Court experience. Have pleny of other of Wilsons' remasters but never got to the King Crimson ones, and I'm happy I finally got the chance to. Can't wait for the Fragile remaster...!

Yes... I've been collecting them, as well; they sound fantastic. Highly recommend the Jethro Tull remasters, if you are a fan.

I must live in a cave or something, as I've never heard of him 'til now. Pretty awesome stuff. Will be getting more!

Have the Thick as a Brick DVD (really good-sounding!) but not his Aqualung. The only ways to get the 5.1 mix are the DVD or BD from the boxset, a bit too spendy for me at the moment. Might settle for trying out just the stereo, either the CD or the one on HDTracks (looks to be the Wilson remaster), but I'm reasonably happy with my current copy (25th Anniversary).
