Free Music Review: Wanted: More Blu-ray Audio Discs!!
Hit: 5 Stars

This was originally a reply to another review of the blu-ray audio version of the latest Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers album. But I figured I may as well write my own review. The album itself is very good. Maybe the best TP album out of the last several. But this is more a review of the blu-ray audio disc itself. Just got it in today, as well as a new subwoofer (great timing!). All I can say is...WOW!!! Hooked up my new sub for my first 5.1 setup in my main TV room (I have had 5.0 for many years but just now adding a sub) and this was the first thing I played. The 5.1 mix sounds glorious on my setup: Yamaha receiver, JBL fronts, Infinity center and surrounds, and my new 10 inch sub. This disc sounds simply fantastic. Crystal clear even cranked way up. Great use of the surround speakers with some background vocals, guitar sounds coming from specific left or right front speakers. All of it mixing together to produce an outstanding audio experience. I hope more artists begin to put out blu-ray audio discs. But I am afraid it probably will not catch on. Truly a shame because this is a fantastic way to listen to an album. Not that many people do that anymore. Which is another true shame. Oh well, at least I can enjoy this incredible Tom Petty blu-ray audio disc.

If you have a blu-ray player and even a decent surround sound system you have to get this version of this album. Yeah it cost a little more but believe me it is well worth it. You can come back here and thank me later!

Mojo (Blu-ray Audio w/ Bonus Download) Poster

Some time in the last few years Tom Petty And the Heartbreakers took a left turn. Maybe it was when Petty woke up in the night with the idea of reuniting his first band, Mudcrutch, to cut the album they never got a chance to make back in the early 70's. Maybe it was when the Heartbreakers assembled the mammoth multi-disc 'The Live Anthology,' which detailed thirty years of concerts. Maybe it was when they gave all their home movies, outtakes and live footage to director Peter Bogdanovich to create the Grammy-winning four-hour career documentary 'Runnin Down A Dream.' There have been side projects and experiments since the band last went into the studio to cut a new Tom Petty And the Heartbreakers album.
With 'MOJO,' they have taken their recent freedom and experimentation to heart. They have gone off the reservation and all signs indicate they aren't coming back.

The first thing that hits you about 'MOJO' is that the spirit of the Mudcrutch sessions has carried on with the Heartbreakers. This is the sound of a band playing together in a room not a studio - facing each other, all singing and playing at the same time. The music is alive, with no overdubs or studio trickery. What you hear is what they created on the spot at that time.

Tom Petty says, 'With this album, I want to show other people what I hear with the band. 'MOJO' is where the band lives when it's playing for itself.'

As for the songs, 'MOJO' showcases a wide variety of American music from rock 'n' roll to country and both electric and acoustic blues. And then there are the images in Petty's lyrics which slip in on the melodies and set up a home in your head: The barefoot girl in the high grass chewing on a stick of sugar cane, the run-in with the law that begins when a carload of buddies decide to party with the motel maids, and the hilariously audacious idea of opening an album with an electric blues rocker about Thomas Jefferson's love affair with Sally Hemings. Petty would probably chuck a rock at anyone who called him a poet, but he sure is a southern writer of humor and sensitivity.

'MOJO' has juice and guts but it also has some sweet balladry for the slow dancers and even a wacked-out reggae number that is unlike anything that the Heartbreakers have done before. It's the kind of album nobody's supposed to be able to make anymore. It got here just in time.


PRODUCER'S NOTE:
ABOUT THIS HIGH RESOLUTION BLU-RAY AUDIO DISC

This disc contains all 15 tracks from 'Mojo' in high-resolution 48K 24 bit PCM stereo and DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround sound.
It is an audio-only disc, with basic navigation and song information
displayed on screen.

The 48K 24 bit audio on this disc has 256 times more resolution than a CD, providing greater detail and reproducing the music's full
dynamic range, from the softest to the loudest sounds. To achieve
full dynamic range it's necessary to master with less overall level, so
this disc might not sound as 'loud' as a standard CD or film soundtrack.
To compensate for this, turn up the volume!

The screensaver switches song information to non-static images
of the cover art 30 seconds after each song begins.

Thanks for caring enough to invest in high quality sound. With this disc you are now able to hear at home what we hear in the studio.

The Blu-Ray audio package also includes a code to download the album in one of three formats: 320kbs Mp3, Apple Lossless, or FLAC.
