"The chances of anyone coming from Mars was a million to one, but still they come!" That's the first thing that comes into my head when I hear of this. Great album, almost worth it for Richard Burton's narration alone. | |||

For thows that have not hard it befor hear is a link to give you a tast "I remember thirty years ago, my neighbour playing this. It scared the shit out of me and I couldn't wait for my mum to come home. I can't forget how terrified I was, even after so long. But it definitely is something that stuck with me, and I enjoy. I remember listening to it a second time shortly after that night, and looking through the artwork that came with the double LP. It definitely was something that engrossed me as a kid. In fact pretty much anything war of the world's did. I love the old film adaptation. I would love to hear the Orson Welles radio version too | |||

"Reading on the net, a Blu-ray player will play sacd" Some Blu-Ray players will play SACD, not all. I've got a Cambridge universal player that will play pretty much anything you throw at it but it's the exception, rather than the norm. | |||

I don't think I have anything that plays SACDs at full resolution (though I need to check my Blu-Ray player)....but I can play 24/196 DVD-Audio. Remakes tend not to be so good, though Mike Oldfield's re-recorded Tubular Bells in 5.1 DVD-A was quite good. | |||

"years agomy mum was throwing out her cliff richard lp's i kept them there like 50 years old now" My wife knows that my record collection is my life insurance....plenty to pay for a good send-off and give her a nest egg. I never did understand the mania for throwing away LPs in the 80s and 90s....but am grateful so many people did because that is when I amassed half my collection. The day I picked up mint, first presses of the first three Yes records for a total of £30 sticks out as particularly good... | |||

"Some of us still have the original vinyl "We've got a copy each
I generally listen to it on my iPod, vinyl is a bit too fragile for my liking.
In my opinion, War of the Worlds is one of the best pieces of art to ever grace the world. I'd love to see the live stage version at some point.
