Mr. JD Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 My copy arrived here at my home this past Saturday. I've yet to fully immerse myself in the entire set, having only had time to listen to a song or two. That being said, I will say that the packaging/presentation is absolutely fantastic. Most certainly, I received great value for my money. I would wholeheartedly recommend this, without question. Nice packaging is cool, but how is the production? Does it sound $70.00 worth better than the CD? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytserush Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 The board bootleg tracks- “Between Sun & Moon” and “Vital Signs”- are both on this release. Good to know. Doesn't figure into me getting it at all, but at least those that do get it won't be cheated there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ytserush Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Just found this really great review... https://drewsreviews...h-in-rio-vinyl/ Not too much mention about the vinyl itself though. We know what the concert was like. I'd still love to know who mastered this one and how it sounds when compared with the CD/DVD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taurus Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I doubt there will be any improvements in sq over what is already released, I think it's just the novelty and desire to have the material on vinyl and enjoy the packaging. This is not a knock against the product or the people who want this, but much of the recent releases appeal is for the packaging as opposed to unreleased material. I hope that changes but I'm not above being lured by a nice wrapper. I bought every vinyl re-issue including the expanded box sets, save for ASOH, Presto and the recent Hemispheres box - and I still may buy those. I also ended up buying the blue vinyl 2112 after posting I was taking a hard pass on such a pointless release, so it's not like I shun these products but there's no way that if there's any improvement in sound quality of Rush in Rio, that it's a $100 [CDN] improvement. We're buying this as completists and/or vinyl fetishists. I don't know what there mid or long range plan is but I would like to see unreleased shows pressed to vinyl or cd or maybe a download subscription. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Rush In Rio wouldn't be Rush In Rio without the dvd. That show was a classic. Up there with Exit Stage Left. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not against the "nice wrapper" either, but unless it resonates with me in some way I'm not convinced. I guess the "completeists and vinyl fetishists" are kind of obligated.
