Ay-oh, I couldn't let my name be sullied on that hack's blog. We should all be thrilled at the extravadanza that is Al's new tunes being mastered in surround sound, and instead this totally non-danztastic guy is raining on our parade. I'm glad we are no longer feeding hits to his site! He is definitely NOT the boss.algonacchick @ May 23 2006, 04:00 PM wrote: Well, I'm happy that our Tony Danza posted in there. Ron Wheeler hasn't responded to what he said. Probably because he's right. Way to go, Tony! Ay-oh!
Tony, after an entire day of being sick, you (in total- I had also watched your show today) have made my day.Tony Danza @ May 25 2006, 08:37 PM wrote: He is definitely NOT the boss.
I really agree with what you say. When I made my first post on the blog, I really had hoped that what I said wouldn't be taken as a fire starting insult...because honestly, all of those in support of Al who commented only tried to reason with Ron, not to make him change his opinion (well at least of not enjoying Al's music fully), but to just try to help him understand the hard work that Al does to make his fans happy. I do have to say that of all the people who commented over there, the Al fans were the most composed and mature. If that doesn't say something about Al and his fans, then I don't know what possibly could. Just a bunch of immaturity over there is all...algonacchick @ May 25 2006, 03:33 PM wrote: But this guy was not only attacking Al and his music, but the fans who responded to his initial comments. I think most of us also realize now that maybe we shouldn't have said anything, but some of us couldn't stand by without making a comment.
You can click here for more information about DualDiscs, direct from SONY/BMG, the company who owns AL's label. This page really explains things.CatraDhtem @ May 24 2006, 07:18 AM wrote: Most likely, but if I'm not mistaken that would be the side with the 5.1 mixes anyway. Please, anyone, if I'm incorrect on this aspect of Dualdiscs, I'd like to know.
Thanks for passing along the link.Dustin @ May 27 2006, 01:26 AM wrote: This page really explains things.
So according to this, the 5.1 mixes will be on the DVD side.One side is the full-length CD audio album. The other side offers DVD content. This may include enhanced album audio, 5.1 surround sound, music videos, artist interviews, behind-the-scenes footage, documentary films, photo galleries, lyrics, computer-ready digital song files, and Web links. It all depends on the artist.
That's right! I completely forgot. That's exactly how it was done on "Songs For Silverman". The surround sound mixes are on the DVD side of the DualDisc. So the issue of whether your CD player has surround sound is pretty much rendered moot. Now, the issue is whether your TV/computer has surround sound.CatraDhtem @ May 27 2006, 03:29 AM wrote:
