I'm not really familiar with DCD, but have listened to some sound clips and find the music interesting. I want to add some of their SACD's to my collection and would appreciate some recommendations on which ones would be best to begin with.

Mahalo Nui Loa,

Well, I was looking at the box set on elusive disc. I may pick that up in a couple weeks. I saw a Genesis box on amazon today and went for it. DCD is on my to get list. For 100.00 I jumped on the Genesis. Compared to what I have seen those going for, I thought that was a good deal and didn't wanna miss out. I will be getting some DCD eventually E. Like so many poor Americans, I gotta allocate from payday to payday. ;)

You are not practicing "deficit spending"? Come on, you need to do your part to stimulate the economy!! :D

I'm going for "Into The Labyrinth" SACD myself.

Into The Labyrinth is one of my Favs and a great place to start!
DCD has been on of my favs for years....a Buddy that spent 2yrs in France for the Rotary Club turned me onto them.
They are VERY popular over seas...anyone who hasn't checked em out I think will enjoy em.

Any questions on DCD or this typa music lemme know!

I finally got around to picking up Into The Labyrinth, SACD. This is great stuff! The one guy on lead vocals eeriely reminds me of Jim Morrison. Interesting mix of chants and music. Absolutely putting more of DCD on my Get List. Thanks for the recommendations.

Been a fan of DCD for years....one of my Buddies that spend a coupla years in France turned me onto them.
They were/are huge over seas.
Into The Labyrinth is one of their best Cd's but all of em are great cept the first one.
They hadn't critiqued their style yet at that point I guess.
It's awful compaired to their later ones IMHO.
They broke up for some reason.
Lisa Gerrard has gone solo and so has Branden Perry and their solo Cd's are also great!
