Is HDCD realy dead? Interestingly, the Grateful Dead, who just reformed under the name "The Dead", have been issuing complete concerts in their Dick's Picks series, and these are HDCD encoded. Additionally, every Arista release over the past few years for both the Grateful Dead, Mickey Hart, The Other Ones, and The Jerry Garcia Band, have been HDCD encoded.Well reviewed sonic marvels put out by Jerry Garcia's pal, David Grisman, under the Acoustic Disc label have likewise been encoded.
In this sense, I guess you could say that HDCD is very DEAD, and in this corner of the audio world, very alive.
These CDs are very fine, especially the more recent vintage concerts, and the Acoustic Disc releases are stunning. This is not meant to be a blatant endorsement of HDCD, but just another log on the fire for consideration.
If it's worth playing, it's worth playing loud!
Good listening.
