On a previous post I said I had asked them the same question and that I hadn't received any answer. Well, the answer is here and what a great answer!

Thank you, both, for the news and the link. I just (pre) ordered all of them, minus Blue Train since I have that on SACD already.
The RVG remastering on the Blue Note SACD sounds horrible. All previous CD versions are preferable, and the new SACD is certain to be a huge improvement as well.

Steve Hoffman said on his forum that he is only going to start mastering these SACDs.
So it will take a few months until the first come out.

I received an email yesterday from Acoustic Sounds.
"We're already bringing you 25 cherry-picked Blue Notes as the best-sounding LP versions ever. Now, we offer you those same 25 titles in what will unquestionably be the best sounding digital versions!
That's right: 25 Blue Note titles on SACD - all Hybrid and all but two titles Stereo - shipping at two or three per month beginning in July 2008. Nine of these 25 titles will include bonus tracks not available on the LP versions. Stay tuned for which titles will include bonus tracks.
As we've done with the LPs, we're offering you the chance to sign up for the complete series for free shipping. We'll charge your card as the titles ship to you and we'll pick up the freight. To sign up for the series email Leesa at bluenote@acousticsounds.com.
The first three titles - Lee Morgan/Lee-Way, Kenny Dorham/Whistle Stop, Jackie McLean/Capuchin Swing - will ship in July.
By the way, whoever said SACD is dead spoke too soon. This is gonna be BIG!!"
