The latest album by Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, Mojo,
will be released on June 29 on audio Blu-ray, two weeks after the CD.
The BD will contain all 15 tracks from Mojo in high-resolution
stereo LPCM (at 24 bits and 48kHz), and DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1
surround. It is an audio-only disc, with basic navigation and song
information displayed on screen; a screensaver switches to non-static
images of the cover art 30 seconds after each song begins.
Note that the Amazon page erroneously lists this title as DVD-Audio, but
the logo on the cover denotes that this is actually a BD.
The track listing is as follows:
- Jefferson Jericho Blues
- First Flash Of Freedom
- Running Man's Bible
- The Trip To Pirate's Cove
- Candy
- No Reason To Cry
- I Should Have Known It
- U.S. 41
- Takin' My Time
- Let Yourself Go
- Don't Pull Me Over
- Lover's Touch
- High In The Morning
- Something Good Coming
- Good Enough
It must be noted that Tom Petty is an ardent supporter of Blu-ray for
music. In an interview with Sound
and Vision Magazine, he said that Blu-ray is "the closest you can
get to sitting in the control room. I don't know how many people it will
immediately appeal to, but more and more people are going to come this
way." He considered that "to disregard the hi-fi end of what we do is
wrong."
