The Police - Reggatta de Blanc 1979 ( 2013 Japanese SHM-SACD re-issue )

With this, all the sonic shortcomings of the previous SACD have been addressed and what we have here is probably the ultimate version of this album. The new-generation SHM-SACD packaging is very cool and the sound is superlative. Close your eyes, lean back and picture Sting and Summers scowling at each other while Copeland gets ready to pull them off each other again...

Thin Lizzy - Renegade 1981 ( 2013 Japanese SHM-CD remastered Deluxe Edition )

Frequently referred to as Thin Lizzy`s worst effort. Nah...unless you are among the fans who wanted them to just keep making Jailbreak over and over. The HTFU effect of being caught up in the NWBHM continues a toughening of the band`s sound which began with the previous Lizzy effort, Chinatown. Renegade offers up some really nice guitar work from Scott Gorham and second guitarist Snowy White who would leave the band after this record. Some diverse songwriting here as well, most notably the finger-snappin' Fats Waller tribute Fats, the swingingest Lizzy tune since Dancing In The Moonlight.
Like all the Thin Lizzy albums which were part of the most recent remastering effort, the SQ of this re-issue is absolutely exemplary. I have SACD's which don't approach these in that respect. The mini-LP packaging of the Japanese versions will put a smile on your face. Really well-done and a delight to listen to on a good system.
