Who else is looking forward to the SACD release of Surfer Rosa? I have high hopes for this one, since it's supposed to be re-mastered from the original analog tapes, and it's MoFi, so at least on paper, it looks like a winning combination.

Wow, count me in!

It's coming out on April 24th, and it's not exactly cheap: $29.99 on MoFi's website, $5 dollars off if you pre-order from Amazon.

Wow I didn't even know this was coming out thanks for the heads up!

Yes, I'm pretty excited about this. So long as it is up to par with recent MFSL releases it should be outstanding.

dammit... times like this make me wish I had an SACD player.

OMFG...drool...the pixies freaking rule! Even though I am more of a DCC/hoffman fan myself, I will take any Pixies remastered by anyone from the original tapes. I hope it is a hybrid though as I don't have a SACD player nor do I plan on owning one.

Now if hoffman did some pixies on DCC or his current label Audio Fidelity, that would be fantastic, but I don't think it would ever happen. Steve does have a song writing credit on one of the pixies albums, bossanova, however.
