I've been waiting forever for this! There is a UK version that will have SACDs and DVDs. The only bummer is that they seem to have left out the Genesis Live album.
Yeah, I was confused about the status of whether or not they were SACDs in the Rhino American version, but I assume they are. I thought maybe they weren't labeled that way because they can still play on regular CD players. The omission of "Live" is extremely unfortunate, because it definitely has the definitive versions of "Get 'Em Out...", "The Musical Box", and "The Knife." Oh well.
I don't know if this would be a good place to start Enlighten. It's quite an investment (two copies of every studio album) especially if you don't know whether you like it or not. Check out "Foxtrot" or "Live" or "Nursery Cryme". Those are good places to start and see if you want to get into the rest of the early material. As for DVDs from what I was reading on Steve Hackett's website there will be live footage included in the simply labeled "Bonus Materials." But do a google search on it and I'm sure you'll find a fan site with more in depth info. I might just put this on my wishlist and eventually pick it up. Maybe after you can give me a review Kev.
