The Searchers and Deep Purple SACD's

I acquired these two new Audio Fidelity SACD releases last week.

I was very surprised that the SACD layer is 89 minutes long on the Deep Purple title. "Lucille" had to be left off of the Redbook layer because of the time constraints. Also, the last two tracks, "Hush" and "River Deep Mountain High" are (great sounding) studio takes. The live tracks on this recording sound fantastic as well.

The Searchers title is great all the way through! I would say it is a must have if you like that era in music.
