"Mobile Fidelity is BACK! In a big way, wow. . . I had forgotten all about this underrated R&B classic featuring "Chef" from South Park, but dear God, this is the real thing, oozing soul and sensuality. This is also a two for one treat as it will play on CD players and the new SACD format.I bought it for the CD layer alone and was not disappointed, but when I brought it over to my friend Steve's crib & popped the disc into the SACD player - Isaac Hayes jumped out of the speakers & gave us a freakin' concert!"

A great album but is it worth getting the sacd version?

"The album is great...doesn't matter if it is only cd or sacd. The thing with this disc, or at least the advertising is that it is not a 5.1 sacd, only stereo. If you have a 5.1 sound system, you will only get playback through the front two speakers."

The best copy, but why no 5.1?

"I have been a Mobile Fidelity fan for years. To be sure their product is always top shelf. This release is no exception...it beats the socks off of the regular issue in terms of musical presentation. Still, this recording would shine in 5.1 surround, so come on MoFi, give us a 5.1 presentation. Sure I know your contract with Sony (CBS) prohibits you from releasing 5.1 CDs of their products, but this is NOT a CBS product. If you got the original master tapes, getting the original 8 track master would not be much more difficult. Please try a little harder next time."
