Title: Request - Chinese Democracy on HDtracks!
Post by: LeviSnuts on December 20, 2013, 12:41:08 PM
Jarmo, et al

Is there any way to get through to Guns, Geffen, Universal, etc. to let them know how amazing it would be to have Chinese Democracy available in 24/192 or 24/96 on HDtracks?

The vinyl release, which should have been great, was flawed with clipped vocals and other issues.

I would love to be able to experience this album in it's full glory - is there anything a fan can do to make this request heard by the band and label?

Not sure what the costs involved would be for the record company to do something like this. After all, they just want to make money.

For us fans it would be great!

thanks for replying.  is there anyway you can at least put in a word to Axl & Co. that it's something many of us would buy in the interim period before the Vegas DVD or a possible new album?  Would be a great thing to release to coincide with the tour starting.

Plus, digital releases don't require as much overhead.

thanks!  happy holidays

I've forwarded your question to management.

It's a great idea.

Cool idea yes,but why not release the next album on HDtracks? and leave CD in the past.

From what I know it's a music application-site like Spotify.

hey jarmo -- I know it's 2 years later, but any chance of seeing this happen?

I still would love to hear ChiDem in 24/192 from HDTracks

They have a "vote for higher upgrade" on the Pono page.

Wouldn't this require permissions and signatures from both the band as well as the label?
