О диске
Kamakiriad is the second solo album by Steely Dan singer Donald Fagen, released in 1993. It was his first collaboration since 1980 with Steely Dan partner Walter Becker, who produced the album.
This album is a futuristic optimistic 8 song-cycle about the journey of the narrator in his high-tech car, the Kamakiri (Japanese for praying mantis). It was nominated for a Best Album Grammy Award.
The album follows a lengthy writer's block for Fagen; the songs are based on personal observations about middle age (as 1982's The Nightfly is lyrically described as fantasies of Fagen's youth and 2006's Morph the Cat ruminations of old age and death).
Fagen and Becker would embark on their first tour as Steely Dan since 1974 to support the album, leading gradually to a permanent reunion.
От автора
* Stereo layer (8 standard songs, 4 bonus tracks, 1 interview audio track
* Multichannel layer (8 standard songs)
* Edited scans of artwork for printing on disc and/or jewel case inserts
* All standard songs in this ISO were sourced from the DVD-Audio release and transcoded. The stereo bonus tracks were sourced from the MVI discs of The Nightfly Trilogy and then transcoded to DSD.
* DST compression was used to reduce disc space usage and upload size
* Only playable when burned good DVD blank media at low speeds. I recommend UltraISO.
* Only playable on universal or SACD players that do not honour Pit Signal Processing.
* Or you can just extract the individual tracks for conversion back to PCM/FLAC, although a more direct way would be to just get the DVD-Audio tracks.
* This is an experimental ISO created from scratch using SuperAuthor. I still have a lot to learn, so if you encounter any glitches, please forgive me and let me know what I can do to fix the problem or avoid similar ones in future.
* Please spread this release around if it is deemed competently authored. No other Kamakiriad SACD exists currently, so this is a one-of-a-kind release for fans of Donald Fagen/Steely Dan.
* If response is good, I can try doing the same for the third and most recent DF DVD-A, Morph The Cat..
* Those who own the DVD-Audio tracks can compared the DSD form of these tracks here, to evaluate the same content sounds on the DSD decoder of their system.
* Photoshop artwork with layers is supplied -- please use it to correct some typos that slipped my proofreading
* This disc contains 4 bonus tracks transcoded from The Nightfly Trilogy
Please spread this special home-made {experimental} edition around the web.
Thanks hardlok
