I picked that one up locally myself. Not sure if you are SACD capable, but it does sound pretty good. (I'm not sure if later issues of this disc have the SACD layer or not: ABKCO also did the Rolling Stones, and the second pressing run eliminated the SACD layer. )

Like Mike says--I'm into just about anything! My want list at Amazon is over 400 items long. Actually, a lot of the high-res and/or surround titles that were out on SACD and DVD-Audio are on my short list. Starting in March (?) this year, the first of the three Genesis surround disc releases will be coming out in the UK. (IIRC, the first run includes everything from 'Trick Of The Tail" through "Abacab".) Fortunately, shipping from the UK via Amazon is quite affordable. I bought three Adam & The Ants remasters a few years ago that cost me about $37 total, for all three discs, including shipping. From Japan, there are a few SACD titles by Miles Davis I've wanted, along with "Caravanserai" by Santana.
