CD 22060
[Multichannel SACD]
30th Anniversary Cellebration Album
• In 1977, Benny Waters "Live at the Pawnshop" was recorded before Opus 3 came into being. This was remedied by releasing it as a CD in 1999.
• 1983 saw the release of the first Opus 3 CD, "Test Record 1, Depth of Image". In 1996, The "20th Anniversary Celebration Disc" release was the first in Europe in HDCD format. In 1999 the SACD format was launched, quickly morphing into the Hybrid SACD format that has become very popular with audiophiles. This marked a new phase in the life of Opus 3, after 25 years the much-loved Telefunken tape recorder was retired and the first album in Northern Europe on SACD to be released was Eric Bibb's "Just Like Love" in the year 2000.
• 2001 saw the complete change from 2-channel analogue recording to 8-channel high-resolution digital recording with surround sound. This was marked by the release of Global Percussion Network's "Rauk".
• In 2003, Jan-Eric Persson was awarded the Swedish Golden Microphone Award as the best studio recording engineer in Sweden.
• In 2004, the change from 8 to 16 channel recording came into being. The first album that resulted was Peder af Ugglas' "Autumn Shuffle".
• This collection is Opus 3's 26th SACD release, taken from recordings that were made 1976-2006. Opus 3 is 30!
