The Band was a Canadian-American roots rock group that originally consisted of Rick Danko (bass guitar, double bass, fiddle, trombone, vocals), Levon Helm (drums, mandolin, guitar, vocals), Garth Hudson (keyboard instruments, saxophones, trumpet), Richard Manuel (piano, drums, baritone saxophone, vocals) and Robbie Robertson (guitar, vocals). The members of the Band first came together as they joined rockabilly singer Ronnie Hawkins' backing group The Hawks one by one between 1958 and 1963. Cahoots is the fourth studio album by Canadian/American rock group the Band released in 1971 and was their last all-original studio album for four years. It received only mixed reviews when it first appeared. Robbie Robertson wrote or co-wrote all but one of the album tracks, Bob Dylan's "When I Paint My Masterpiece". Robertson's occasional co-writers include Danko and Helm on "Life is a Carnival", and Van Morrison on "4% Pantomime". Tracklist: 1. "Life Is a Carnival" 3:55 2. "When I Paint My Masterpiece" 4:21 3. "Last of the Blacksmiths" 3:41 4. "Where Do We Go from Here?" 3:47 5. "4% Pantomime" 4:32 6. "Shoot Out in Chinatown" 2:51 7. "The Moon Struck One" 4:09 8. "Thinkin' Out Loud" 3:19 9. "Smoke Signal" 5:11 10. "Volcano" 3:05 11. "The River Hymn" 4:40 DFF files extracted with Scarletbook from the 2009 Hybrid Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab SACD MFSL-SACD-ISO-DFF-1Bit-2.8Mhz

Hal,
You are the bomb for posting these Band SACD files. I know there is some contention about the necessity for conversion to anything better than Redbook standards, but the difference is crystal clear with even entry level DAC equipment on a minimum audio system. Thanks so much for continuing The Band SACD series. Can't wait to hear this addistion and can't wait for what is yet to come.
Thanks beyond thanks!

You're welcome mate.
Just to keep things clear, this is NOT
a conversion.
Just the DSD-DFF files extracted, not
converted or touched in any way. (And not meant to be be converted, heheh...)
Enjoy...

HAL400 If you need Rock of Ages and Northern Lights I can UL them for you in DSD. I am doing the mostly complete collection in 24-48 starting this week. All from ISO files. Let me know if you need those 2.
I have to use a DAC to play digital files on me stereo, including DSD-DFF files. I was just sayin' that the DSD-DFF (SACD) files are revelatory.
I definitely want Northern Lights SACD files, PLEASE!!!

I will wait to hear from HAL4000 to see if he has plans to UL them. If not I will...
Relatively recently did I become capable of and discovered high bitrate audio. When my ol’ relic PC was no longer able, and with an update to my stereo rig (bluray player w/WIFI), I’ve gotten some enlightenment. Let me know if I can do better. For now, I use foobar (UPnP, SACD, WASAPI, ASIO components/add-ons) to allow bluray player to receive decoded signal and pass it to stereo. The PC is not near or hard-wire connected to stereo – though that would be the best I presume. I like it that selecting DLNA, Play Stream Capture on the bluray player allows me to use the foobar GUI to select, sort, play – better than bluray’s own… Other programs I’ve tried (exp JRiver) don’t show up on bluray as “Play Stream Capture”, so it’s the awkward (bluray player sees) folders method media play (playlist, genre, artist, etc) that is available. Play Stream Capture is so strait forward and with what I’ve discovered so far, foobar is unique in the way I can get audio files to stereo, including file types my receiving streaming device(s) can’t decode. I don’t have a physical SACD/DVD-A player (or do I?). Sounds like I do because most, not all, high bit-rate audio files sound less like a stereo and more like the real thing. It seems like I upgraded my stereo, and my stereo is better than I thought it could be. I’m discovering new to me music and right now that’s what’s now playing instead of the TV.
OMG!
You're gonna butcher some good sounding files again?
What a shame, but anyway, you do what you have to do .
About Southern Cross, that one is coming one of these days. (Don't know exactly when though)
And Rock of ages is not, since it is just too damn big for me to upload. (About 3.8Gb)
But do whatever you want man, I'm not interested in it if is converted/downsampled/castrated. I still don't get it though why you have to convert if there's already professionally converted CD layers, (These are hybrids and have CD layers) which were made converting the SACD layer into PCM Redbook by MFSL.
Unlike some discs that use different masters for them. So why don't you just rip the CD layer from the ISO's and post them in FLAC? Now THAT would be useful and appreciated by many I think.

I was just thinking that the ISO off course doesn't have the CD layer. So forget my comment about that.
You would need the physical disc.

One more thing,
if you could upload the "Rock of Ages" ISO, that would be great, 'cause I can't do it and I guess there's ppl out there who want it.
Have fun...

Upping both as ISO. As for the quality of the rips...they sound damn good. Done with Saracon...
I thought size was not an issue...lol. Hence the reason for the rips. I think you will be quite surprised how good these rips sound...
Size is not the issue, it is my third world connection that is the problem. If I upload 4Gb, it will take me like 2 whole days to get it done.
That's just too much, I need to do other things as well on my system.
I don't really care if a good sounding track is the size it is. If they would be 40Gb, or 400 I would still be listening to them, without converting them.

For many I know size is an issue. However they want the best quality they can get in a reasonable size. That is why I have done the 24-48 rips. The first few I did without Saracon were ok. However these with Saracon sound as good as the ISO files IMHO. Many have been quite happy with them...
Tx for upping those ISO's.
NP you're welcome...
Just a thought. The idea behind audio compression such as FLAC and ALAC is to have the same quality sound in a smaller file. That is the same concept behind my conversions. I have tried to maintain the same quality in a smaller file. Of course the only way to know for sure is have someone else play them both for you while you try to pick the larger one with consistency. In that way bias is removed. However I think you get to a point where even the best ears in the world would have a very hard time...
