"Just picked up a Sony Super Audio CD player yesterday and they have come down in price significantly. I got mine from a major retailer for (dollar amount). The first CD I got was "Tapestry" and it was worth it. You can hear all of the subtle nuances of Carole's voice and you really feel the emotion she exudes. The remastering for the SACD is superb and this new stlye lends itself to Carole's singing.Only drawback is that this SACD is not multi-channel and ,unlike what the previous reviewer said, only hybrid SACDs can be used in regualar CD players, and they are few and far between right now.Go buy this disc!"

Tapestry gets even better...in multi-channel!

"Wow. Paul Klingberg is quickly becoming my #1 remixer for 5.1 sound. First EWF and now this...but he outdoes himself on Tapestry. The gorgeous title song sends shivers up my spine with the vibes moved to the rear speakers and her voice just everywhere, with incredible presence. I could've used a little less tape hiss, but doing so would've taken out the dynamics of her voice. No...you're not going to mistake it as a 2002 recording with its stridency in spots, but trust me, any fan of this seminal album will be absolutely blown away by this painstaking mix. "Beautiful" and "Tapestry" are reason enough to either 1) Sell the original Stereo SACD release asap or 2) Get a Multi SACD player outright. THIS (and BJ's "Stranger")is the reason I splurged for the Pioneer multi-player. Yes...it's that good. I'm going back to listen some more!"

AMAZING.....
