But this is hardly nostalgia -- this is the sound of an artist returning to his strengths, what feels most familiar, as he accepts a traumatic situation, namely the breakdown of his marriage. This is an album alternately bitter, sorrowful, regretful, and peaceful, easily the closest he ever came to wearing his emotions on his sleeve. That's not to say that it's an explicitly confessional record, since many songs are riddles or allegories, yet the warmth of the music makes it feel that way. The original version of the album was even quieter -- first takes of \"Idiot Wind\" and \"Tangled Up in Blue,\" available on The Bootleg Series, Vols. 1-3, are hushed and quiet (excised verses are quoted in the liner notes, but not heard on the record) -- but Blood on the Tracks remains an intimate, revealing affair since these harsher takes let his anger surface the way his sadness does elsewhere. As such, it's an affecting, unbearably poignant record, not because it's a glimpse into his soul, but because the songs are remarkably clear-eyed and sentimental, lovely and melancholy at once. And, in a way, it's best that he was backed with studio musicians here, since the professional, understated backing lets the songs and emotion stand at the forefront. Dylan made albums more influential than this, but he never made one better. » AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBob Dylan was at several crossroads in the mid-1970s. Artistically, he was largely written off as being past his prime. Emotionally, he was suffering through a painful divorce from his then-wife Sara Lowndes. Creatively, he appeared at a stalemate, his previous decade's unprecedented run of transformational brilliance finished.

While three-step processing is designed for optimum yield and efficiency, UD1S is created for the ultimate in sound quality. Just as Mobile Fidelity pioneered the UHQR (Ultra High-Quality Record) with JVC in the 1980s, UD1S again represents another state-of-the-art advance in the record-manufacturing process. MFSL engineers begin with the original master tapes and meticulously cut a set of lacquers. These lacquers are used to create a very fragile, pristine UD1S stamper called a \"convert.\" Delicate \"converts\" are then formed into the actual record stampers, producing a final product that literally and figuratively brings you closer to the music. By skipping the additional steps of pulling another positive and an additional negative, as done in the three-step process used in standard pressings, UD1S produces a final LP with the lowest noise floor possible today. The removal of the additional two steps of generational loss in the plating process reveals tremendous amounts of extra musical detail and dynamics, which are otherwise lost due to the standard copying process. The exclusive nature of these very limited pressings guarantees that every UD1S pressing serves as an immaculate replica of the lacquer sourced directly from the original master tape. Every conceivable aspect of vinyl production is optimized to produce the most perfect record album available today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMoFi SuperVinyl:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe World's Quietest Surfaces and Cleanest Grooves: Developed by NEOTECH and RTI, MoFi SuperVinyl is the most exacting-to-specification vinyl compound ever created. Analog lovers have never seen (or heard) anything like it. Extraordinarily expensive and extremely painstaking to produce, the special proprietary compound addresses two specific areas of improvement: noise floor reduction and enhanced groove definition. The vinyl composition features a new carbonless dye (hold the disc up to the light and see) and produces the world's quietest surfaces. This high-definition formula also allows for the creation of cleaner grooves that are indistinguishable from the original lacquer.

The very title of Son of Schmilsson implies that it's a de facto sequel to its smash predecessor but, as always with Nilsson, don't take everything at face value. Yes, he's back with producer Richard Perry and he's working from the same gleefully melodic, polished pop\/rock territory as before, but this is an incredibly schizoid record, an album by an enormously gifted musician deciding that, since he's already going unhinged, he might as well indulge himself while he's at it. And, wow, are the results ever worth it. Opening with a song to a groupie -- he sang his balls off, baby, he nearly broke the microphone -- and ending with an ode to \"The Most Beautiful World in the World,\" this record careens all over the place, bouncing from one idea to another, punctuated with B-horror movie sound effects, bizarre humor, profanity, and belches. There are song parodies, seemingly straight piano ballads, vulgar hard rock, lovely love songs, and a cheerful singalong with retirees at an old folks home who all proclaim, \"I'd rather be dead than wet my bed.\" The sheer perversity of it all would be fascinating, yet if that's all it had to offer, it'd merely be a curiosity, the way his post-Pussy Cats records are. Instead, this is all married to a fantastic set of songs that illustrate what a skilled, versatile songsmith Nilsson was. No, it may not be the easiest album to warm to -- and it's just about the weirdest record to reach number 12 and go gold -- but if you appreciate Nilsson's musicality and weirdo humor, he never got any better.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 4,03 \/ 5 , Discogs : 4,5 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40883976667287,"sku":"MFSL2-499","price":71.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/harry-nilsson-son-of-schmilsson-2lp-45rpm-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719853281"},{"product_id":"eagles-desperado","title":"Eagles - Desperado (2LP, Box set, 1STEP, 45RPM, SuperVinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/eagles\" title=\"vinyl featuring Eagles\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/eagles\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Eagles]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGlenn Frey – acoustic and electric guitars, vocals; keyboards, harmonica\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDon Henley – drums, vocals; acoustic guitar\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBernie Leadon – electric and acoustic guitars, vocals; banjo, mandolin, dobro\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRandy Meisner – bass guitar, vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2 LPs, Box set\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLimited to 7,500 copies\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal analog Master tape : YES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy Press : 180g SuperVinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord color : black\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpeed : 45RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize : 12”\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStereo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStudio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord Press : RTI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel : MOFI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Label : Asylum Records\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecorded in 1973 at Island Studios, London\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e by Glyn Johns\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduced by Glyn Johns\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginally released in 1973\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReissued in 2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracks:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide A:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoolin-Dalton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwenty-One\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOut of Control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTequila Sunrise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesperado\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide B:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertain Kind of Fool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutlaw Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSaturday Night\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBitter Creek\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoolin-Dalton (Reprise)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesperado (Reprise)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"If Don Henley was the sole member of the Eagles underrepresented on their debut album, Eagles, with only two lead vocals and one co-songwriting credit, he made up for it on their follow-up, the \"concept\" album Desperado. The concept had to do with Old West outlaws, but it had no specific narrative. On Eagles, the group had already begun to marry itself to a Southwest sound and lyrical references, from the Indian-style introduction of \"Witchy Woman\" to the Winslow, AZ, address in \"Take It Easy.\" All of this became more overt on Desperado, and it may be that Henley, who hailed from Northeast Texas, had the greatest affinity for the subject matter. In any case, he had co-writing credits on eight of the 11 selections and sang such key tracks as \"Doolin-Dalton\" and the title song. What would become recognizable as Henley's lyrical touch was apparent on those songs, which bore a serious, world-weary tone. Henley had begun co-writing with Glenn Frey, and they contributed the album's strongest material, which included the first single, \"Tequila Sunrise,\" and \"Desperado\" (strangely never released as a single). But where Eagles seemed deliberately to balance the band's many musical styles and the talents of the band's members, Desperado, despite its overarching theme, often seemed a collection of disparate tracks -- \"Out of Control\" was a raucous rocker, while \"Desperado\" was a painfully slow ballad backed by strings -- with other bandmembers' contributions tacked on rather than integrated. Randy Meisner was down to two co-writing credits and one lead vocal (\"Certain Kind of Fool\"), while Bernie Leadon's two songs, \"Twenty-One\" and \"Bitter Creek,\" seemed to come from a different record entirely. The result was an album that was simultaneously more ambitious and serious-minded than its predecessor and also slighter and less consistent.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by William Ruhlmann\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltraDisc One-Step :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eInstead of utilizing the industry-standard three-step lacquer process, Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab's new UltraDisc One-Step (UD1S) uses only one step, bypassing two processes of generational loss. While three-step processing is designed for optimum yield and efficiency, UD1S is created for the ultimate in sound quality. Just as Mobile Fidelity pioneered the UHQR (Ultra High-Quality Record) with JVC in the 1980s, UD1S again represents another state-of-the-art advance in the record-manufacturing process. MFSL engineers begin with the original master tapes and meticulously cut a set of lacquers. These lacquers are used to create a very fragile, pristine UD1S stamper called a \"convert.\" Delicate \"converts\" are then formed into the actual record stampers, producing a final product that literally and figuratively brings you closer to the music. By skipping the additional steps of pulling another positive and an additional negative, as done in the three-step process used in standard pressings, UD1S produces a final LP with the lowest noise floor possible today. The removal of the additional two steps of generational loss in the plating process reveals tremendous amounts of extra musical detail and dynamics, which are otherwise lost due to the standard copying process. The exclusive nature of these very limited pressings guarantees that every UD1S pressing serves as an immaculate replica of the lacquer sourced directly from the original master tape. Every conceivable aspect of vinyl production is optimized to produce the most perfect record album available today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMoFi SuperVinyl:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe World's Quietest Surfaces and Cleanest Grooves: Developed by NEOTECH and RTI, MoFi SuperVinyl is the most exacting-to-specification vinyl compound ever created.

The vinyl composition features a new carbonless dye (hold the disc up to the light and see) and produces the world's quietest surfaces.

A remarkably expressive and intimate record, it's a work of consummate craftsmanship. Always a superior pop composer, King reaches even greater heights as a performer; new songs like the hits \"It's Too Late\" and \"I Feel the Earth Move\" rank solidly with past glories, while songs like \"Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow,\" and \"(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman\" take on added resonance when delivered in her own warm, compelling voice. With its reliance on pianos and gentle drumming, Tapestry is a light and airy work on its surface, occasionally skirting the boundaries of jazz, but it's also an intensely emotional record, the songs confessional and direct; in its time it connected with listeners like few records before it, and it remains an illuminating experience decades later.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Jason Ankeny\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltraDisc One-Step :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eInstead of utilizing the industry-standard three-step lacquer process, Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab's new UltraDisc One-Step (UD1S) uses only one step, bypassing two processes of generational loss. While three-step processing is designed for optimum yield and efficiency, UD1S is created for the ultimate in sound quality. Just as Mobile Fidelity pioneered the UHQR (Ultra High-Quality Record) with JVC in the 1980s, UD1S again represents another state-of-the-art advance in the record-manufacturing process. MFSL engineers begin with the original master tapes and meticulously cut a set of lacquers. These lacquers are used to create a very fragile, pristine UD1S stamper called a \"convert.\" Delicate \"converts\" are then formed into the actual record stampers, producing a final product that literally and figuratively brings you closer to the music. By skipping the additional steps of pulling another positive and an additional negative, as done in the three-step process used in standard pressings, UD1S produces a final LP with the lowest noise floor possible today. The removal of the additional two steps of generational loss in the plating process reveals tremendous amounts of extra musical detail and dynamics, which are otherwise lost due to the standard copying process. The exclusive nature of these very limited pressings guarantees that every UD1S pressing serves as an immaculate replica of the lacquer sourced directly from the original master tape. Every conceivable aspect of vinyl production is optimized to produce the most perfect record album available today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMoFi SuperVinyl:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe World's Quietest Surfaces and Cleanest Grooves: Developed by NEOTECH and RTI, MoFi SuperVinyl is the most exacting-to-specification vinyl compound ever created.

Extraordinarily expensive and extremely painstaking to produce, the special proprietary compound addresses two specific areas of improvement: noise floor reduction and enhanced groove definition. The vinyl composition features a new carbonless dye (hold the disc up to the light and see) and produces the world's quietest surfaces. This high-definition formula also allows for the creation of cleaner grooves that are indistinguishable from the original lacquer.

roll, folk, and country, overlaid by vocal harmonies alternately suggestive of doo wop, the Beach Boys, and the Everly Brothers. If the group kicks up its heels on rockers like \"Chug All Night,\" \"Nightingale,\" and \"Tryin',\" it is equally convincing on ballads like \"Most of Us Are Sad\" and \"Train Leaves Here This Morning.\" The album is also balanced among its members, who trade off on lead vocal chores and divide the songwriting such that Glenn Frey, Bernie Leadon, and Randy Meisner all get three writing or co-writing credits. (Fourth member Don Henley, with only one co-writing credit and two lead vocals, falls a little behind, while Jackson Browne, Gene Clark, and Jack Tempchin also figure in the writing credits.) The album's overall balance is worth keeping in mind because it produced three Top 40 hit singles (all of which turned up on the massively popular Eagles: Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975) that do not reflect that balance. \"Take It Easy\" and \"Peaceful Easy Feeling\" are similar-sounding mid-tempo folk-rock tunes sung by Frey that express the same sort of laid-back philosophy, as indicated by the word \"easy\" in both titles, while \"Witchy Woman,\" a Henley vocal and co-composition, initiates the band's career-long examination of supernaturally evil females. These are the songs one remembers from Eagles, and they look forward to the eventual dominance of the band by Frey and Henley. But the complete album from which they come belongs as much to Leadon's country-steeped playing and singing and to Meisner's melodic rock \u0026amp; roll feel, which, on the release date, made it seem a more varied and consistent effort than it did later, when the singles had become overly familiar.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by William Ruhlmann\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltraDisc One-Step :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eInstead of utilizing the industry-standard three-step lacquer process, Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab's new UltraDisc One-Step (UD1S) uses only one step, bypassing two processes of generational loss. While three-step processing is designed for optimum yield and efficiency, UD1S is created for the ultimate in sound quality. Just as Mobile Fidelity pioneered the UHQR (Ultra High-Quality Record) with JVC in the 1980s, UD1S again represents another state-of-the-art advance in the record-manufacturing process. MFSL engineers begin with the original master tapes and meticulously cut a set of lacquers. These lacquers are used to create a very fragile, pristine UD1S stamper called a \"convert.\" Delicate \"converts\" are then formed into the actual record stampers, producing a final product that literally and figuratively brings you closer to the music. By skipping the additional steps of pulling another positive and an additional negative, as done in the three-step process used in standard pressings, UD1S produces a final LP with the lowest noise floor possible today. The removal of the additional two steps of generational loss in the plating process reveals tremendous amounts of extra musical detail and dynamics, which are otherwise lost due to the standard copying process. The exclusive nature of these very limited pressings guarantees that every UD1S pressing serves as an immaculate replica of the lacquer sourced directly from the original master tape. Every conceivable aspect of vinyl production is optimized to produce the most perfect record album available today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMoFi SuperVinyl:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe World's Quietest Surfaces and Cleanest Grooves: Developed by NEOTECH and RTI, MoFi SuperVinyl is the most exacting-to-specification vinyl compound ever created. Analog lovers have never seen (or heard) anything like it. Extraordinarily expensive and extremely painstaking to produce, the special proprietary compound addresses two specific areas of improvement: noise floor reduction and enhanced groove definition. The vinyl composition features a new carbonless dye (hold the disc up to the light and see) and produces the world's quietest surfaces. This high-definition formula also allows for the creation of cleaner grooves that are indistinguishable from the original lacquer.

Thanks also to a more consistent set of songs, the results are magnificent -- given room to breathe, Joplin's trademark rasp conveys an aching, desperate passion on funked-up, bluesy rockers, ballads both dramatic and tender, and her signature song, the posthumous number one hit \"Me and Bobby McGee.\" The unfinished \"Buried Alive in the Blues\" features no Joplin vocals -- she was scheduled to record them on the day after she was found dead.

Even more than usual, Cooder refuses to recognize borders -- geographical or musical -- presenting \"Stand By Me\" as a gospel song with a norteño arrangement, or giving the Jim Reeves country-pop classic, \"He'll Have to Go,\" a bolero rhythm, featuring the interplay of Flaco Jimenez's accordion and Pat Rizzo's alto sax. Elsewhere, he teams with a pair of Hawaiian greats -- steel guitarist and singer Gabby Pahinui and slack key guitar master Atta Isaacs -- on the Hank Snow hit \"Yellow Roses\" and the beautiful instrumental \"Chloe.\" If Cooder's approach to the music is stylistically diverse, his choice of material certainly follows suit. Bookended by a couple of Leadbelly compositions, Chicken Skin Music sports a collection of songs ranging from the aforementioned tracks to the charming old minstrel\/medicine show number \"I Got Mine\" and the syncopated R\u0026amp;B of \"Smack Dab in the Middle.\" Also included is Appalachian songwriter Blind Alfred Reed's \"Always Lift Him Up,\" complete with a Hawaiian gospel tune, \"Kanaka Wai Wai,\" woven into the instrumental section. As he explains in the album's liner notes, Cooder understands the connection between these seemingly disparate styles. This is not merely eclecticism for its own sake. Chicken Skin Music is probably Ry Cooder's most eccentric record since his first, but it's also one of his most entertaining.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Brett Hartenbach\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed. A typical 33 1\/3 rpm record is cut at 16 2\/3 rpm. The source material is also slowed down (reducing the pitch in the process) meaning the final record will still sound normal when played back. Slowing the whole process down allows more time, which means the end result sounds better and is more efficient — allowing engineering to minimize the effects of inherent limitations within the vinyl format.

Time has muted some of its daring, radical nature, elements of which were appropriated by practically every metal band (and most arena rock bands) that followed. Truth was almost as groundbreaking and influential a record as the first Beatles, Rolling Stones, or Who albums. Its attributes weren't all new -- Cream and Jimi Hendrix had been moving in similar directions -- but the combination was: the wailing, heart-stoppingly dramatic vocalizing by Rod Stewart, the thunderous rhythm section of Ron Wood's bass and Mickey Waller's drums, and Beck's blistering lead guitar, which sounds like his amp is turned up to 13 and ready to short out. Beck opens the proceedings in a strikingly bold manner, using his old Yardbirds hit \"Shapes of Things\" as a jumping-off point, deliberately rebuilding the song from the ground up so it sounds closer to Howlin' Wolf. There are lots of unexpected moments on this record: a bone-pounding version of Willie Dixon's \"You Shook Me\"; a version of Jerome Kern's \"Ol' Man River\" done as a slow electric blues; a brief plunge into folk territory with a solo acoustic guitar version of \"Greensleeves\" (which was intended as filler but audiences loved); the progressive blues of \"Beck's Bolero\"; the extended live \"Blues Deluxe\"; and \"I Ain't Superstitious,\" a blazing reworking of another Willie Dixon song.

Hiring Barbra Streisand producer Richard Perry as a collaborator, Nilsson made a streamlined, slightly domesticated, unashamed set of mature pop\/rock, with a slight twist. This is an album, after all, that begins by pining for the reckless days of youth, then segues into a snapshot of suburban disconnectedness before winding through a salute to and covers of old R\u0026amp;B tunes (\"Early in the Morning\" and \"Let the Good Times Roll,\" respectively), druggie humor (\"Coconut\"), and surging hard rock (\"Jump Into the Fire\"). There are certainly hints of the Nilsson of old, particularly in his fondness for Tin Pan Alley and McCartney melodicism -- as well as his impish wit -- yet he hadn't made a record as cohesive as this since his first time out, nor had he ever made something as shiny and appealing as this. It may be more accessible than before, yet it's anchored by his mischievous humor and wonderful idiosyncrasies. Chances are that those lured in by the grandly melodramatic \"Without You\" will not be prepared for either the subtle charms of \"The Moonbeam Song\" or the off-kilter sensibility that makes even his breeziest pop slightly strange. In short, it's a near-perfect summary of everything Nilsson could do; he could be craftier and stranger, but never did he achieve the perfect balance as he did here.\" \u003cspan

new studio album of Paul Simon's post-Simon \u0026amp; Garfunkel career was a musical and lyrical change of pace from his first two, Paul Simon and There Goes Rhymin' Simon. Where Simon had taken an eclectic approach before, delving into a variety of musical styles and recording all over the world, Still Crazy found him working for the most part with a group of jazz-pop New York session players, though he did do a couple of tracks (\"My Little Town\" and \"Still Crazy After All These Years\") with the Muscle Shoals rhythm section that had appeared on Rhymin' Simon and another (\"Gone at Last\") returned to the gospel style of earlier songs like \"Loves Me Like a Rock.\" Of course, \"My Little Town\" also marked a return to working with Art Garfunkel, and another Top Ten entry for S\u0026amp;G. But the overall feel of Still Crazy was of a jazzy style subtly augmented with strings and horns. Perhaps more striking, however, was Simon's lyrical approach. Where Rhymin' Simon was the work of a confident family man, Still Crazy came off as a post-divorce album, its songs reeking of smug self-satisfaction and romantic disillusionment. At their best, such sentiments were undercut by humor and made palatable by musical hooks, as on \"50 Ways to Leave Your Lover,\" which became the biggest solo hit of Simon's career. But elsewhere, as on \"Have a Good Time,\" the singer's cynicism seemed unearned. Still, as out of sorts as Simon may have been, he was never more in tune with his audience: Still Crazy topped the charts, spawned four Top 40 hits, and won Grammys for Song of the Year and Best Vocal Performance.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by William Ruhlmann\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 12.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Segoe UI',sans-serif; color: #212b36;\"\u003eUltraDisc One-Step :\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Segoe UI',sans-serif; color: #212b36;\"\u003e Instead of utilizing the industry-standard three-step lacquer process, Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab's new UltraDisc One-Step (UD1S) uses only one step, bypassing two processes of generational loss. While three-step processing is designed for optimum yield and efficiency, UD1S is created for the ultimate in sound quality. Just as Mobile Fidelity pioneered the UHQR (Ultra High-Quality Record) with JVC in the 1980s, UD1S again represents another state-of-the-art advance in the record-manufacturing process. MFSL engineers begin with the original master tapes and meticulously cut a set of lacquers. These lacquers are used to create a very fragile, pristine UD1S stamper called a \"convert.\" Delicate \"converts\" are then formed into the actual record stampers, producing a final product that literally and figuratively brings you closer to the music. By skipping the additional steps of pulling another positive and an additional negative, as done in the three-step process used in standard pressings, UD1S produces a final LP with the lowest noise floor possible today. The removal of the additional two steps of generational loss in the plating process reveals tremendous amounts of extra musical detail and dynamics, which are otherwise lost due to the standard copying process. The exclusive nature of these very limited pressings guarantees that every UD1S pressing serves as an immaculate replica of the lacquer sourced directly from the original master tape. Every conceivable aspect of vinyl production is optimized to produce the most perfect record album available today.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; word-spacing: 0px; margin: 0cm 0cm 12.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Segoe UI',sans-serif; color: #212b36;\"\u003eMoFi SuperVinyl:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Segoe UI',sans-serif; color: #212b36;\"\u003e The World's Quietest Surfaces and Cleanest Grooves: Developed by NEOTECH and RTI, MoFi SuperVinyl is the most exacting-to-specification vinyl compound ever created. Analog lovers have never seen (or heard) anything like it. Extraordinarily expensive and extremely painstaking to produce, the special proprietary compound addresses two specific areas of improvement: noise floor reduction and enhanced groove definition. The vinyl composition features a new carbonless dye (hold the disc up to the light and see) and produces the world's quietest surfaces. This high-definition formula also allows for the creation of cleaner grooves that are indistinguishable from the original lacquer.

Even the one suspect choice -- Sonny Bono's \"Bang Bang\" -- turns out to be rivaled only by Mott the Hoople's version of \"Laugh at Me\" in putting Bono's songwriting in the kindest possible light. Most of the tracks here share the common structure of a disjointed warm-up jam, a Hammond-heavy dirge of harmonized vocals at the center, and a final flat-out jam. Still, some succeed better than others: \"You Keep Me Hanging On\" has a wonderfully hammered-out drum part, and \"She's Not There\" boasts some truly groovy organ jams.

Their first album was a wild swing, their second had flown just barely foul, but with their third -- the unstoppable Stay Hungry -- the New York veterans finally hit one out of the park. And few bands were as deserving. Having paid their dues on the tough as nails N.Y.C. club scene (half of the band looked like the Ramones, the other half like the Dictators, and Dee Snider looked like, well, Dee Snider), Twisted Sister had finally worn down the opposition and truly arrived. With their comedic videos and bubblegum undertones, hit singles \"We're Not Gonna Take It\" and \"I Wanna Rock\" helped the band bridge the \"beauty gap\" into MTV acceptance, and a competent power ballad in \"The Price\" would cement their consumer-friendly status. But it was the irrefutable menace of tracks like \"The Beast,\" \"S.M.F.,\" and the massive \"Burn in Hell\" that connected with their loyal fans and displayed Twisted Sister's true power. Equally grim, \"Captain Howdy\" and \"Street Justice\" -- the two songs comprising the \"Horror-teria\" suite (later the basis for Snider's ill-fated movie project Strangeland) -- are a cross between Alice Cooper and its stated source of influence, Stephen King. And don't forget the all-out metal ambition of the title track. Ironically, the album's very mainstream appeal would alienate their core heavy metal fan base and spell the band's overexposure-induced fall from grace, but for this brief moment, Twisted Sister were truly the \"talk of the town, top of the heap.\"\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Eduardo Rivadavia\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed. A typical 33 1\/3 rpm record is cut at 16 2\/3 rpm. The source material is also slowed down (reducing the pitch in the process) meaning the final record will still sound normal when played back. Slowing the whole process down allows more time, which means the end result sounds better and is more efficient — allowing engineering to minimize the effects of inherent limitations within the vinyl format. The result is a more accurate and more open high-frequency response in the half speed vinyl when compared with a normal speed recording.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 4,5 \/ 5 , Discogs : 4,24 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40931686219927,"sku":"MFSL1-492","price":99.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/twisted-sister-stay-hungry-ultra-analog-half-speed-mastering-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719853489"},{"product_id":"train-drops-of-jupiter","title":"Train - Drops of Jupiter (Ultra Analog, Half-speed Mastering)","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePat Monahan - lead vocals, percussion, saxophone, trumpet, vibraphone\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJimmy Stafford - lead guitar, backing vocals, mandolin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRob Hotchkiss - rhythm guitar, backing vocals, bass, harmonica\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCharlie Colin - bass, backing vocals, rhythm guitar\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScott Underwood - drums, keyboards, percussion, programming\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaul Buckmaster - conductor, string arrangements, orchestral arrangements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrendan O'Brien - keyboards\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDavid Campbell - string arrangements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCarl Gorodetzky - violin, concert master\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuzie Katayama - cello\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChuck Leavell - piano\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMichael Markman - violin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBob Mason - cello\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFleming McWilliams - backing vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDan Smith - cello\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKris Wilkinson - viola\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEvan Wilson - viola\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1 LP, standard sleeve\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLimited to 3,000 copies\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal analog Master tape : YES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed Mastering\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ LP \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy Press : 180g\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord color : black\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpeed : 33RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize : 12”\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStereo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStudio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord Press : RTI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel : MOFI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Label : Columbia\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecorded February - March 2001 \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eat Southern Tracks\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngineered \u0026amp; mixed by Brendan O'Brien\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduced by Brendan O'Brien\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRemastered by Krieg Wunderlich, Shawn R.

Train is a classic rock wannabe band in the mold of Counting Crows, although that's not always a bad thing. In fact, the best moments on Drops of Jupiter are the most blatant rip-offs, which means the band can sound endearing even when they don't sound unique. Does the hit title track remind you of Madman Across the Water-era Elton John? Well, it's no coincidence. Paul Buckmaster, who arranged the soaring strings on much of John's best work, reprises that role here, and session keyboardist extraordinaire Chuck Leavell channels John on the piano.

Rex's transformation from hippie folk-rockers into flamboyant avatars of trashy rock \u0026amp; roll. There are a few vestiges of those early days remaining in the acoustic-driven ballads, but Electric Warrior spends most of its time in a swinging, hip-shaking groove powered by Marc Bolan's warm electric guitar. The music recalls not just the catchy simplicity of early rock \u0026amp; roll, but also the implicit sexuality -- except that here, Bolan gleefully hauls it to the surface, singing out loud what was once only communicated through the shimmying beat. He takes obvious delight in turning teenage bubblegum rock into campy sleaze, not to mention filling it with pseudo-psychedelic hippie poetry. In fact, Bolan sounds just as obsessed with the heavens as he does with sex, whether he's singing about spiritual mysticism or begging a flying saucer to take him away. It's all done with the same theatrical flair, but Tony Visconti's spacious, echoing production makes it surprisingly convincing. Still, the real reason Electric Warrior stands the test of time so well -- despite its intended disposability -- is that it revels so freely in its own absurdity and willful lack of substance. Not taking himself at all seriously, Bolan is free to pursue whatever silly wordplay, cosmic fantasies, or non sequitur imagery he feels like; his abandonment of any pretense to art becomes, ironically, a statement in itself. Bolan's lack of pomposity, back-to-basics songwriting, and elaborate theatrics went on to influence everything from hard rock to punk to new wave. But in the end, it's that sense of playfulness, combined with a raft of irresistible hooks, that keeps Electric Warrior such an infectious, invigorating listen today.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Steve Huey\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

Run-D.M.C. and King of Rock had established the crew's fusion of hip-hop and hard rock, but that sound didn't blossom until Raising Hell, partially due to the presence of Rick Rubin as producer. Rubin loved metal and rap in equal measures and he knew how to play to the strengths of both, while slipping in commercial concessions that seemed sly even when they borrowed from songs as familiar as \"My Sharona\" (heard on \"It's Tricky\"). Along with longtime Run-D.M.C. producer Russell Simmons, Rubin blew down the doors of what hip-hop could do with Raising Hell because it reached beyond rap-rock and found all sorts of sounds outside of it. Sonically, there is simply more going on in this album than any previous rap record -- more hooks, more drum loops (courtesy of ace drum programmer Sam Sever), more scratching, more riffs, more of everything. Where other rap records, including Run-D.M.C.'s, were all about the rhythm, this is layered with sounds and ideas, giving the music a tangible flow. But the brilliance of this record is that even with this increased musical depth, it still rocks as hard as hell, and in a manner that brought in a new audience. Of course, the cover of Aerosmith's \"Walk This Way,\" complete with that band's Steven Tyler and Joe Perry, helped matters considerably, since it gave an audience unfamiliar with rap an entry point, but if it were just a novelty record, a one-shot fusion of rap and rock, Raising Hell would never have sold three million copies. No, the music was fully realized and thoroughly invigorating, rocking harder and better than any of its rock or rap peers in 1986, and years later, that sense of excitement is still palpable on this towering success story for rap in general and Run-D.M.C. in specific.” AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed. A typical 33 1\/3 rpm record is cut at 16 2\/3 rpm. The source material is also slowed down (reducing the pitch in the process) meaning the final record will still sound normal when played back. Slowing the whole process down allows more time, which means the end result sounds better and is more efficient — allowing engineering to minimize the effects of inherent limitations within the vinyl format. The result is a more accurate and more open high-frequency response in the half speed vinyl when compared with a normal speed recording.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 5 \/ 5 , Discogs : 4,39 \/ 5  ,  The Absolute Sound, February 2021 : Music 3.5\/5, Sonics 5\/5\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40931988471959,"sku":"MFSL2-494","price":125.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/run-dmc-raising-hell-2lp-45rpm-ultra-analog-half-speed-mastering-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719853509"},{"product_id":"kc-and-the-sunshine-band","title":"KC and the Sunshine Band (MOFI Silver Label, 140g)","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarry Wayne Casey – keyboards, vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJerome Smith – guitar\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard Finch – bass guitar, drum, percussion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRobert Johnson – drums\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOliver C.

Fueled by such addictive funk hits as \"That's the Way (I Like It)\" and \"Get Down Tonight,\" the album established K.C. as one of the top stars of the disco era. But while K.C. was labeled a disco artist, the truth is that many of these slick yet gritty songs have more in common with the Ohio Players than Silver Convention or Donna Summer. When Rhino reissued this album on CD in 1995 as KC and the Sunshine Band...And More, the company generously included several early K.C. smokers (including \"I'm a Pushover\") from Do It Good as bonus tracks. The invigorating material proves that even before the outfit hit big, its distinctive sound had been established.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Alex Henderson\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 4,5 \/ 5 , Discogs : 3,96 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40932227514519,"sku":"MOFI1-012","price":55.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/kc-and-the-sunshine-band-mofi-silver-label-140g-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719853509"},{"product_id":"johnny-cash-i-walk-the-line","title":"Johnny Cash - I Walk the Line (2LP, Ultra Analog, Half-speed Mastering, Mono, 45RPM)","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCOMPILATION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJohnny Cash - vocals, guitar \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/johnny-cash\" title=\"vinyl featuring Johnny Cash\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Johnny Cash]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2 LP, gatefold jacket\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLimited to 3,000 copies\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal analog Master tape : YES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed Mastering\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy Press : 180g\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord color : black\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpeed : 45RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize : 12”\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMono\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStudio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord Press : RTI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel : MOFI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Label : Columbia\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduced by Don Law, Frank Jones \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRemastered by Krieg Wunderlich\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginally released in 1964\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReissued in 2020\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracks:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Side A:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Walk the Line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBad News\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFolsom Prison Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide B:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGive My Love to Rose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHey Porter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Still Miss Someone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide C:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnderstand Your Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWreck of the Old 97\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStill in Town\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide D:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBig River\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoodbye Little Darlin' Goodbye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTroublesome Waters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"These 17 songs are offered with no information, but they are, in fact, some of the cornerstone songs and recordings of Johnny Cash's long and remarkable career.

It was a stunning song in the tradition of Bacharach's classic '60s work and it was successful enough that the composers decided to collaborate on a full album, Painted from Memory. Wisely, they chose to work within the stylistic parameters of Bacharach's '60s material, but Painted from Memory never sounds like a stylistic exercise. Instead, it's a return to form for both artists. Bacharach hasn't written such graceful, powerful melodies since his glory days, and Costello hasn't crafted such a fully realized album since King of America. It's a testament to both that even if the album is clearly in Bacharach's territory, it feels like a genuine collaboration. Often, the music not only evokes the spirit of Dionne Warwick, it's reminiscent of Elvis' torching ballads for Trust. Costello keeps Bacharach from his schmaltzier tendencies, and Bacharach keeps Costello from overwriting. With its lush arrangements, sighing brass and strings, gentle pianos, and backing vocals, it's clearly a classicist album, yet it sounds utterly timeless. Its melodies are immediate, its emotions subtle, its impact lasting -- and, with that timeless sound, Painted from Memory illustrates that craft cannot only be its own reward, it can be genuinely moving.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

Analog lovers have never seen (or heard) anything like it. Extraordinarily expensive and extremely painstaking to produce, the special proprietary compound addresses two specific areas of improvement: noise floor reduction and enhanced groove definition. The vinyl composition features a new carbonless dye (hold the disc up to the light and see) and produces the world's quietest surfaces. This high-definition formula also allows for the creation of cleaner grooves that are indistinguishable from the original lacquer.

There are none of the foreboding, apocalyptic warnings that permeated Time Out of Mind and even underpinned \"Things Have Changed,\" his Oscar-winning theme to Curtis Hanson's 2000 film Wonder Boys. Just as important, Daniel Lanois' deliberately arty, diffuse production has retreated into the mist, replaced by an uncluttered, resonant production that gives Dylan and his ace backing band room to breathe. And they run wild with that liberty, rocking the house with the grinding \"Lonesome Day Blues\" and burning it down with the fabulously swinging \"Summer Days.\" They're equally captivating on the slower songs, whether it's the breezily romantic \"Bye and Bye,\" the torch song \"Moonlight,\" or the epic reflective closer, \"Sugar Baby.\" Musically, Dylan hasn't been this natural or vital since he was with the Band, and even then, those records were never as relaxed and easy or even as hard-rocking as these. That alone would make Love and Theft a remarkable achievement, but they're supported by a tremendous set of songs that fully synthesize all the strands in his music, from the folksinger of the early '60s, through the absurdist storyteller of the mid-'60s, through the traditionalist of the early '70s, to the grizzled professional of the '90s. None of this is conscious, it's all natural. There's an ease to his writing and a swagger to his performance unheard in years -- he's cracking jokes and murmuring wry asides, telling stories, crooning, and swinging. It's reminiscent of his classic records, but he's never made a record that's been such sheer, giddy fun as this, and it stands proudly among his very best albums.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Blood, desperation and wicked gallows humor are in the air as Dylan and his road band provide a raucous tour of twentieth-century musical America via jump blues, slow blues, rockabilly, Tin Pan Alley ballads and country swing. \"Summer Days\" sounds like the exact moment when R↦B morphed into rock \u0026amp; roll. \" - www.rollingstone.com\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed. A typical 33 1\/3 rpm record is cut at 16 2\/3 rpm. The source material is also slowed down (reducing the pitch in the process) meaning the final record will still sound normal when played back. Slowing the whole process down allows more time, which means the end result sounds better and is more efficient — allowing engineering to minimize the effects of inherent limitations within the vinyl format. The result is a more accurate and more open high-frequency response in the half speed vinyl when compared with a normal speed

Tracks was an unapologetically intimate affair, Desire is unwieldy and messy, the deliberate work of a collective. And while Bob Dylan directly addresses his crumbling relationship with his wife, Sara, on the final track, Desire is hardly as personal as its predecessor, finding Dylan returning to topical songwriting and folk tales for the core of the record. It's all over the map, as far as songwriting goes, and so is it musically, capturing Dylan at the beginning of the Rolling Thunder Revue era, which was more notable for its chaos than its music. And, so it's only fitting that Desire fits that description as well, as it careens between surging folk-rock, Mideastern dirges, skipping pop, and epic narratives. It's little surprise that Desire doesn't quite gel, yet it retains its own character -- really, there's no other place where Dylan tried as many different styles, as many weird detours, as he does here. And, there's something to be said for its rambling, sprawling character, which has a charm of its own. Even so, the record would have been assisted by a more consistent set of songs; there are some masterpieces here, though: \"Hurricane\" is the best-known, but the effervescent \"Mozambique\" is Dylan at his breeziest, \"Sara\" at his most nakedly emotional, and \"Isis\" is one of his very best songs of the '70s, a hypnotic, contemporized spin on a classic fable. This may not add up to a masterpiece, but it does result in one of his most fascinating records of the '70s and '80s -- more intriguing, lyrically and musically, than most of his latter-day affairs.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

Analog lovers have never seen (or heard) anything like it. Extraordinarily expensive and extremely painstaking to produce, the special proprietary compound addresses two specific areas of improvement: noise floor reduction and enhanced groove definition. The vinyl composition features a new carbonless dye (hold the disc up to the light and see) and produces the world's quietest surfaces. This high-definition formula also allows for the creation of cleaner grooves that are indistinguishable from the original lacquer.

The disc was likewise the third to be issued on their own Grateful Dead Records label. When the LP hit shelves in September of 1975, the Dead were still not back on the road -- although they had played a few gigs throughout San Francisco. Obviously, the time off had done the band worlds of good, as Blues for Allah -- more than any past or future studio album -- captures the Dead at their most natural and inspired. The opening combo of \"Help on the Way,\" \"Slipknot!,\" and \"Franklin's Tower\" is a multifaceted suite, owing as much to Miles Davis circa the E.S.P. album as to anything the Grateful Dead had been associated with. \"Slipknot!\" contains chord changes, progressions, and time signatures which become musical riddles for the band to solve -- which they do in the form of \"Franklin's Tower.\" Another highly evolved piece is the rarely performed \"King Solomon's Marbles,\" an instrumental that spotlights, among other things, Keith Godchaux's tastefully unrestrained Fender Rhodes finger work displaying more than just a tinge of Herbie Hancock inspiration. These more aggressive works contrast the delicate musical and lyrical haiku on \"Crazy Fingers\" containing some of lyricist Robert Hunter's finest and most beautifully arranged verbal images for the band. Weir's guitar solo in \"Sage \u0026amp; Spirit\" is based on one of his warm-up fingering exercises. Without a doubt, this is one of Weir's finest moments. The light acoustic melody is tinged with an equally beautiful arrangement. While there is definite merit in Blues for Allah's title suite, the subdued chant-like vocals and meandering melody seems incongruous when compared to the remainder of this thoroughly solid effort.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Lindsay Planer \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

From the Mars Hotel, while not a classic, represents one of their better studio albums. Jerry Garcia sounds engaged throughout and takes the vocal reigns for most of the songs on the album -- although he's not the most gifted vocalist, he proves himself able and versatile. He sings the rollicking opener, \"U.S. Blues,\" with a tongue-in-cheek seriousness that gives the political song an edge, and he lends emotional sincerity to the atmospheric ballad \"China Doll.\" Garcia shines on guitar during the funk workout \"Scarlet Begonias,\" but the ensemble work is best displayed on the album's centerpiece, \"Unbroken Chain.\" During this song, all the musicians are allowed to shine: Phil Lesh, the bassist and songwriter, provides tender vocals over a piano-based arrangement while the bridge allows the guitars and drums to stretch out in classic Grateful Dead style. This album is highly recommended for fans, but casual listeners should start with American Beauty or Workingman's Dead.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Vik Iyengar\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

According to legend, the group was so stoned when they recorded the track that they could neither pronounce the title \"In the Garden of Eden\" or end the track, so it rambles on for a full 17 minutes, which to some listeners sounds like eternity. But that's the essence of its appeal -- it's the epitome of heavy psychedelic excess, encapsulating the most indulgent tendencies of the era. Iron Butterfly never matched the warped excesses of \"In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida,\" either on their debut album of the same name or the rest of their catalog, yet they occasionally made some enjoyable fuzz guitar-driven psychedelia that works as a period piece. The five tracks that share space with their magnum opus on In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida qualify as good artifacts, and the entire record still stands as the group's definitive album, especially since this is the only place the full-length title track is available.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

Paul Gonsalves' 27-chorus tenor solo on \"Diminuendo in Blue and Crescendo in Blue\" practically started a riot at Newport and made headlines around the world. The momentum generated by this concert led to Ellington's comeback and never let up during his 18 remaining years. A double CD put out in 1999 presents the entire concert performance, previously unheard material, and a few revelations. After a brief truncated set that was cut short because four of Ellington's musicians could not be found, the Ellington Orchestra returned to the stage three hours later. They played \"Take the 'A' Train,\" \"Newport Jazz Festival Suite,\" a showcase for Harry Carney on \"Sophisticated Lady,\" and a so-so Jimmy Grissom vocal outing on \"Day In, Day Out.\" Then came \"Diminuendo in Blue and Crescendo in Blue.\" The saxophone interlude caused crazed dancing, and soon the crowd was as loud as the band. When the crowd would not quiet down, Ellington saved the day by closing with a long version of \"Skin Deep.\" But unknown to most people is that on July 9, the orchestra went to the studios to reproduce the program. The earlier version of the \"Newport Jazz Festival Suite\" had been a bit sloppy and Gonsalves' famous tenor solo on \"Diminuendo\" had actually been played into the wrong microphone. Ellington's band therefore performed the entire \"Newport Jazz Festival Suite\" again and it was issued (with phony applause, introductions, and crowd noises) on the original LP.

The first of two meetings on record in a duo format with guitarist Jim Hall, the collaborations are often exquisite. Both Evans and Hall had introspective and harmonically advanced styles along with roots in hard-swinging bebop. There is more variety than expected on the fine set with some cookers, ballads, waltzes, and even some hints at classical music. Recommended.

mid-'80s when one couldn't go out for a cup of coffee without encountering Cyndi Lauper in one form or another. Her videos were playing constantly on MTV, her music was everywhere on the radio, and, best of all, children were even dressing up as Cyndi for Halloween. In retrospect, it was a Lauper-ish time but it was all over quite quickly; in fact, the period in the ultra-limelight didn't even span the period covered by two album releases, which means that this follow-up to her smash debut album was relegated to the also-ran pile, with sad results such as only one sort-of hit single (the title track) and nobody apparently interested in imitating the skirt she wore on the back cover photo, which seems like it is made of slashed-up concert posters. Kind of a shame since so much love and attention went into this album. Guest stars and high-dollar session musicians abound, including other '80s icons such as the Bangles and the manic Pee Wee Herman, who provides a great little answering-machine bit at the end of \"911.\" Lauper is a fantastic vocalist, meaning that any record producer worth hiring would be happy to dream up endless settings for her. This album is nothing if not ambitious, and some of the stretches really pay off, such as the ultimately endearing cover of Marvin Gaye's \"What's Going On.\" Other aspects date badly. For example, highly reverberated and artificial sounding drums and keyboards were really popular at the time, but a vocalist with a clear voice such as Lauper sounds much better in the context of real instruments with their warmer sounds. When it comes to tunes such as the nice Cajun number \"The Faraway Nearby,\" drums should have been turned way down and other instrumental colors brought up. Despite these sorts of problems, there really wasn't that much music recorded by this artist during her most popular period, so fans will no doubt want to own it all.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Eugene Chadbourne\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed. A typical 33 1\/3 rpm record is cut at 16 2\/3 rpm. The source material is also slowed down (reducing the pitch in the process) meaning the final record will still sound normal when played back. Slowing the whole process down allows more time, which means the end result sounds better and is more efficient — allowing engineering to minimize the effects of inherent limitations within the vinyl format. The result is a more accurate and more open high-frequency response in the half speed vinyl when compared with a normal speed recording.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 3,5 \/ 5 , Discogs : 3,97 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40934371000471,"sku":"MOFI1-028","price":55.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/cyndi-lauper-true-colors-mofi-silver-label-ultra-analog-half-speed-mastering-140g-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719853529"},{"product_id":"cyndi-lauper-shes-so-unusual-ultra-analog","title":"Cyndi Lauper - She's So Unusual (MOFI Silver Label, Ultra Analog, Half-speed Mastering, 140g)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCyndi Lauper – lead vocals, backing vocals, arrangements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRob Hyman – keyboards, backing vocals, arrangements (A1-2, A4-B6)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard Termini – synthesizers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeter Wood – synthesizers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEric Bazilian – arrangements (A1, A2, A4-B6), melodica, guitars, bass, saxophone (B6), backing vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRick DiFonzo – guitars\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeil Jason – guitars, bass\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWilliam Wittman – guitars, arrangements (A3)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnton Fig – drums, percussion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRick Chertoff – percussion, arrangements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKrystal Davis – backing vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEllie Greenwich – backing vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJules Shear – backing vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaeretha Stewart – backing vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiane Wilson – backing vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1 LP, gatefold jacket\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLimited numbered edition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal analog Master tape : Silver Label (Copy of original Mastertape)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed Mastering\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGain 2 Ultra Analog\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy Press : 140g\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord color : black\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpeed : 33RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize : 12”\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStereo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStudio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord Press : RTI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel : MOFI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Label : Portrait\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecorded \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMay–August 1983 at Record Plant, New York City\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngineered \u0026amp;

Then again, Lauper's voice suits her musical persona, since its chirpiness adds depth, or reconfigures the songs, whether it's the call to arms of \"Girls Just Want to Have Fun\" or the tearjerking \"Time After Time.\" Lauper is at her very best on the first side, all of which were singles or received airplay, and this collection of songs -- \"Money Changes Everything,\" \"Girls,\" \"When You Were Mine,\" \"Time,\" \"She Bop,\" \"All Through the Night\" -- is astonishing in its consistency, so strong that it makes the remaining tracks -- all enjoyable, but rather pedestrian -- charming by their association with songs so brilliantly alive. If Lauper couldn't maintain this level of consistency, it's because this captured her persona better than anyone could imagine -- when a debut captures a personality so well, let alone a personality so tied to its time, the successive work can't help but pale in comparison. Still, when it's captured as brightly and brilliantly as it is here, it does result in a debut that retains its potency, long after its production seems a little dated.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed. A typical 33 1\/3 rpm record is cut at 16 2\/3 rpm. The source material is also slowed down (reducing the pitch in the process) meaning the final record will still sound normal when played back. Slowing the whole process down allows more time, which means the end result sounds better and is more efficient — allowing engineering to minimize the effects of inherent limitations within the vinyl format. The result is a more accurate and more open high-frequency response in the half speed vinyl when compared with a normal speed recording.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 3,5 \/ 5 , Discogs : 4,09 \/ 5  ,  Michael Fremer Rated 8\/11 Music, 8\/11 Sound \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40934626918551,"sku":"MOFI1-027","price":55.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/cyndi-lauper-she-s-so-unusual-mofi-silver-label-ultra-analog-half-speed-mastering-140g-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719853529"},{"product_id":"copy-of-cyndi-lauper-shes-so-unusual-ultra-analog","title":"Willie Nelson – Stardust (MOFI Silver Label, 140g)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWillie Nelson, vocals, guitar \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/willie-nelson\" title=\"vinyl featuring Willie Nelson\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/willie-nelson\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Willie Nelson]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBobbie Nelson, piano\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaul English, drums\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRex Ludwig, drums\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJody Payne, guitar\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBee Spears, bass\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChris Ethridge, bass\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMickey Raphael, harmonica\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBooker T.

He set aside originals, country, and folk and recorded Stardust, a collection of pop standards produced by Booker T. Jones. Well, it's not entirely accurate to say that he put away country and folk, since these are highly idiosyncratic interpretations of \"Georgia on My Mind,\" \"All of Me,\" \"Moonlight in Vermont,\" and \"Don't Get Around Much Anymore,\" blending pop, country, jazz, and folk in equal measures. It's not that Willie makes these songs his own, it's that he reimagines these songs in a way that nobody else could, and with his trusty touring band, he makes these versions indelible. It may be strange to think that this album, containing no originals from one of America's greatest songwriters, is what made him a star, and it continues to be one of his most beloved records, but it's appropriate, actually. Stardust showcases Nelson's skills as a musician and his entire aesthetic -- where there is nothing separating classic American musical forms, it can all be played together -- perhaps better than any other album, which is why it was a sensation upon its release and grows stronger with each passing year.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 5 \/ 5 , Discogs : 4,24 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40934763593879,"sku":"MOFI1-026","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/willie-nelson-stardust-mofi-silver-label-140g-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719853529"},{"product_id":"men-at-work-cargo-ultra-analog","title":"Men at Work - Cargo (MOFI Silver Label, 140g)","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColin Hay - lead vocals (except on A3 \u0026amp; B4), guitar, Synclavier, background vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGreg Ham - flute, keyboards, saxophone, harmonica, background vocals, lead vocals on B4\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRon Strykert - guitar, background vocals, lead vocals on A3\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJohn Rees - bass, background vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJerry Speiser - drums, background vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1 LP, standard sleeve\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLimited numbered edition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal analog Master tape : Silver Label (Copy of original Mastertape)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy Press : 140g\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord color : black\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpeed : 33RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize : 12”\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStereo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStudio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord Press : RTI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel : MOFI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Label : CBS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecorded in 1982 at AAV Studios, Melbourne, Paradise Studios, Sydney and Westlake Audio, Los Angeles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngineered \u0026amp; mixed by Peter McIan\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduced by Peter McIan\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRemastered by Paul Stubblebine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginally released in 1983\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReissued in 2013\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracks:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide A:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverkill\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSettle Down My Boy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpstairs In My House\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo Sign of Yesterday\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide B:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt's a Mistake\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh Wire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue for You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Like To\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo Restrictions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Cargo was bashed out fairly quickly, but its release was delayed because of the success of Men at Work's debut, Business as Usual. Though it was recorded on the road, Cargo is considerably more diverse -- but not necessarily more ambitious -- than its predecessor. Again, the album is anchored by two extraordinary singles. Fortunately, the soaring ballad \"Overkill\" and the satiric, anti-nuclear \"It's a Mistake\" aren't rewrites of \"Who Can It Be Now?\" and \"Down Under,\" demonstrating more depth than anything on the debut. Despite this growth, the remainder of Cargo is weighed down by filler. \"Doctor Heckyll and Mr. Jive\" might be goofy fun and \"High Wire\" and \"Blue for You\" are tight pop songs, but the rest are simply pleasant, occasionally embarrassing (\"I Like To,\" \"Settle Down My Boy\") new wave pop.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 4,5 \/ 5 , Discogs : 3,83 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40934871629975,"sku":"MOFI 1-025","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/men-at-work-cargo-mofi-silver-label-140g-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719853530"},{"product_id":"men-at-work-business-as-usual","title":"Men at Work - Business as Usual (Ultra Analog, Half-speed Mastering)","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eColin Hay – guitar, lead vocals (A1–4, B1-5)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGreg Ham – flute, keyboards, saxophone, background vocals (A1–4, B1-5), lead vocals (A5)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRon Strykert – guitar, background vocals,\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJohn Rees – bass, background vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJerry Speiser – drums, background vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1 LP, gatefold\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLimited edition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal analog Master tape : YES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed Mastering\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGAIN 2 Ultra Analog System™\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy Press : 180g\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord color : black\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpeed : 33RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize : 12”\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStereo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStudio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord Press : RTI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel : MOFI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Label : CBS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecorded \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMarch–September 1981 \u003c\/span\u003eat Richmond Recorders, Melbourne\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngineered \u0026amp;

Colin Hay's keening vocals uncannily recall Sting, and the band's rhythmic pulse and phased guitars also bring to mind a bar band version of the Police. And that helps make the remainder of Business as Usual enjoyable. There's a fair amount of filler on the record, but \"Be Good Johnny,\" \"I Can See It in Your Eyes,\" and \"Down by the Sea\" are all fine new wave pop songs, making Business as Usual one of the more enjoyable mainstream-oriented efforts of the era.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed. A typical 33 1\/3 rpm record is cut at 16 2\/3 rpm. The source material is also slowed down (reducing the pitch in the process) meaning the final record will still sound normal when played back. Slowing the whole process down allows more time, which means the end result sounds better and is more efficient — allowing engineering to minimize the effects of inherent limitations within the vinyl format. The result is a more accurate and more open high-frequency response in the half speed vinyl when compared with a normal speed recording.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 4,5 \/ 5 , Discogs : 3,93 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40935596458135,"sku":"MOFI1-024","price":55.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/men-at-work-business-as-usual-ultra-analog-half-speed-mastering-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719853541"},{"product_id":"the-b-52s-cosmic-thing-ultra-analog","title":"The B-52's - Cosmic Thing (MOFI Silver Label, Ultra Analog, Half-speed Mastering, 140g)","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCarl Beatty – horns (A4)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCrispin Cioe – horns (A4)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLeroy Clouden – drums (B1, B1, B4-5)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCharley Drayton – drums (A4-5 \u0026amp;

Granted, the album was completed in the wake of Ricky Wilson's death, but the group appeared bereft of new musical ideas and were sounding rather stale. In other words, the last thing anyone expected was a first-class return to form, which is what they got with Cosmic Thing. Working with producers Don Was and Nile Rodgers, the B-52's updated their sound with shiny new surfaces and deep, funky grooves -- it was the same basic pattern as before, only refurbished and contemporized. Just as importantly, they had their best set of songs since at least Wild Planet, possibly since their debut. \"Cosmic Thing\" and \"Channel Z\" were great up-tempo rockers; \"Roam\" had a groovy beat blessed with a great Cindy Wilson vocal; and \"Deadbeat Club\" was one of their rare successful reflective numbers.

Opening with the driving two-part hymn \"Dominion\/Mother Russia,\" Sisters leader Andrew Eldritch (along with bassist Patricia Morrison) creates a black soundscape that is majestic and vast. While the earlier Sisters releases were noisy, sometimes harsh affairs, Floodland is filled with lush production (thanks to Meat Loaf writer\/producer Jim Steinman and the New York Choral Society) and lyric imagery that is both scary and glorious. The slower tracks, like \"Flood\" and \"1959,\" are some of the best ethereal sounds goth has to offer, and the downright regal \"This Corrosion\" is one of the best songs of the genre.

While Speak and Spell is, by far, the more consistent record, Upstairs at Eric's is wholly more satisfying, beating the Depeche record on substance and ambition, and is light years ahead in emotion. \"Don't Go\" and \"Situation\" are absolutely killer with Clarke's bubbling synth and singer Alison Moyet's bluesy and powerful delivery. They're both rightful dance floor staples, and have since undergone numerous remixes, both official and bootleg. \"Bring Your Love Down (Didn't I)\" is just as good a thumper, adding a wonderful mumbled bridge that shows how much Clarke enjoyed messing with pop music. The softer \"Only You\" would have sounded silly and robotic if it had appeared on Speak and Spell, but Moyet's vocals makes it bittersweet and engaging. The clumsier experimental tracks make most people head for the hits collection, but to do so would be to miss the album's great twist. The loony tape loop of \"I Before E Except After C,\" the skeletal \"Winter Kills,\" and a disruptive phone call in the middle of the naïve \"Bad Connection\" offer up more complex and intimate moments. Like its curious cover, Upstairs at Eric's presents a fractured, well-lit, and paranoid urban landscape.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by David Jeffries\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

While Wild Planet is not the rarefied wonder their first platter is, it's still darn good. The songs here are generally faster, tighter, and punchier than previously, though production values are not as wonderfully quirky and detailed; fewer songs here are as over-the-top crazy as the first album's \"Rock Lobster\" or \"52 Girls.\" These formless selections continue to exhibit a cunning mix of girl group, garage band, surf, and television theme song influences, all propelled along by an itchy dance beat. \"Give Me Back My Man\" allows Cindy Wilson a unique opportunity to croon a broad, expressive melodic line. Fred Schneider parades his inimitably nervous vocals on chucklesome ditties like \"Quiche Lorraine\" and \"Strobe Light.\" The best songs here are \"Private Idaho,\" a wonderfully jittery number that employs a variant on the famous melodic snippet from the Twilight Zone theme music, and \"Devil in My Car,\" a delightfully loopy hoot that lays the craziness on very thickly. Performances and sound quality are fine. This album is well worth hearing and recommended.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by David Cleary\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 4,5 \/ 5 , Discogs : 4,16 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40936285307031,"sku":"MOFI1-014","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/the-b-52-s-wild-planet-mofi-silver-label-140g-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719853541"},{"product_id":"the-sisters-of-mercy-first-and-last-and-always-ultra-analog","title":"The Sisters of Mercy - First and Last and Always (MOFI Silver Label, Ultra Analog, Half-speed Mastering, 140g)","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAndrew Eldritch – vocals, sleeve design, mixing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCraig Adams – bass guitar\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWayne Hussey – guitar, vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGary Marx – guitar\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoktor Avalanche (drum machine) – drums\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1 LP, gatefold sleeve\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLimited numbered edition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal analog Master tape : Silver Label (Copy of original Mastertape)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed Mastering\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGAIN 2 Ultra Analog System™\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy Press : 140g\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord color : black\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpeed : 33RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize : 12”\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStereo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStudio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord Press : RTI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel : MOFI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Label : Merciful Release \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecorded \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJune – November 1984 at \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStrawberry Studio (Stockport) and \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenetic (Reading)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngineered \u0026amp;

With static drumbeats and jangle-angled guitars backing Andrew Eldritch's atonic, graveyard vocals, the songs on First and Last and Always paid to play alongside the ghosts of myriad forgotten post-punkers as well as the band's own goth forebears. From the opening air-fire claustrophobia of \"Black Planet\" to the melancholy \"No Time to Cry,\" Eldritch continually assured listeners that \"everything's gonna be alright\" -- but, really, coming out of that mouth, did anyone actually believe him? Even on the occasional wobbly patches imbedded in the now classic \"Marian\" and the title track, where the song threatens to dissolve into irrelevance despite Eldritch's chirky vocal, they pull up wonderfully on the bass-driven, bee-stung guitar gem \"Possession\" and the closing \"Some Kind of Stranger,\" an untouchable epic that, clocking in at over seven minutes, is the best of its kind from any time -- period. \"Some Kind of Stranger\" not only became a love song for the doom and gloom crowd, but was also an anthemic, anemic declaration of intent laid bare in a haze of sonic smoke and mirrors. Copied to death, its brilliance has never been replicated. Indeed, the entire album remains unequaled in the genre, permanently granted top place on a pedestal from which it cannot be toppled.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Amy Hanson \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

The result is a more accurate and more open high-frequency response in the half speed vinyl when compared with a normal speed recording.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 4 \/ 5 , Discogs : 4,43 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40936488599703,"sku":"MOFI1-006","price":55.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/the-sisters-of-mercy-first-and-last-and-always-mofi-silver-label-ultra-analog-half-speed-mastering-140g-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719853552"},{"product_id":"the-b-52s-the-b-52s","title":"The B-52's - The B-52's (MOFI Silver Label, 140g)","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKate Pierson – vocals, organ, keyboard bass, additional guitar (A2, B3)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFred Schneider – vocals, walkie-talkie, toy piano (A3), keyboard bass (B3)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKeith Strickland – drums, percussion, Claire sounds\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCindy Wilson – vocals, bongos, tambourine, additional guitar (B2)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRicky Wilson – guitars, smoke alarm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1 LP, standard sleeve\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLimited numered edition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal analog Master tape : Silver Label (Copy of original Mastertape)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy Press : 140g\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord color : black\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpeed : 33RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize : 12”\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStereo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStudio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord Press : RTI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel : MOFI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Label : Warner Bros\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecorded at Compass Point Studios\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngineered \u0026amp;

Unabashed kitsch mavens at a time when their peers were either vulgar or stylish, the Athens quintet celebrated all the silliest aspects of pre-Beatles pop culture -- bad hairdos, sci-fi nightmares, dance crazes, pastels, and anything else that sprung into their minds -- to a skewed fusion of pop, surf, avant-garde, amateurish punk, and white funk. On paper, it sounds like a cerebral exercise, but it played like a party. The jerky, angular funk was irresistibly danceable, winning over listeners dubious of Kate Pierson and Cindy Wilson's high-pitched, shrill close harmonies and Fred Schneider's campy, flamboyant vocalizing, pitched halfway between singing and speaking. It's all great fun, but it wouldn't have resonated throughout the years if the group hadn't written such incredibly infectious, memorable tunes as \"Planet Claire,\" \"Dance This Mess Around,\" and, of course, their signature tune, \"Rock Lobster.\" These songs illustrated that the B-52's' adoration of camp culture wasn't simply affectation -- it was a world view capable of turning out brilliant pop singles and, in turn, influencing mainstream pop culture. It's difficult to imagine the endless kitschy retro fads of the '80s and '90s without the B-52's pointing the way, but The B-52's isn't simply an historic artifact -- it's a hell of a good time.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 5 \/ 5 , Discogs : 4,33 \/ 5 , Audio Beat Rated 4.5\/5 Music, 4.5\/5 Sound\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40936529428631,"sku":"MOFI 1-014","price":65.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/the-b-52-s-the-b-52-s-mofi-silver-label-140g-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719853552"},{"product_id":"yes-fragile-2lps-45-rpm-box-ud1s-supervinyl","title":"Yes - Fragile (2LP, 45 RPM, Box, 1STEP, SuperVinyl)","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca title=\"vinyl featuring Yes\" href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/yes\" style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/yes\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl from Yes]\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJon Anderson – lead vocals, percussion, acoustic guitar on “We Have Heaven”\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSteve Howe – electric and acoustic guitars, backing vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChris Squire – bass guitars, backing vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRick Wakeman – Hammond organ, grand piano, RMI 368 Electra-Piano and Harpsichord, Mellotron, Minimoog synthesiser\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBill Bruford – drums\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWritten by \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJon Anderson (A1, B1-2, C2, D1), Johannes Brahms (A2 extracts from Brahms' 4th Symphony In E Minor, Third Movement), Chris Squire (B2, C3, D1), Bill Bruford (C1, D1), Steve Howe (A1, C4)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e2 LPs, box set, gatefold jacket\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLimited to 7,500 numbered copies\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOriginal analog Master tape : YES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUD1S (UltraDisc One-Step)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHeavy Press : 180g - \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSuperVinyl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord color : black\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpeed : 45RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize : 12”\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStereo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStudio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord Press : RTI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel : MOFI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Label : Atlantic\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecorded \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e11 August - 5 September 1971 \u003c\/span\u003eat Advision Studios, London\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngineered \u0026amp;

The science-fiction and fantasy elements that had driven the more successful songs on their preceding record, The Yes Album, were pushed much harder here, and not just in the music but in the packaging of the album: the Roger Dean-designed cover was itself a fascinating creation that seemed to relate to the music and drew the purchaser's attention in a manner that few records since the heyday of the psychedelic era could match. Having thrown original keyboard player Tony Kaye overboard early in the sessions -- principally over his refusal to accept the need for the Moog synthesizer in lieu of his preferred Hammond organ -- the band welcomed Rick Wakeman into its ranks. His use of the Moog, among other instruments, coupled with an overall bolder and more aggressive style of playing, opened the way for a harder, hotter sound by the group as a whole; bassist Chris Squire sounds like he's got his amp turned up to \"12,\" and Steve Howe's electric guitars are not far behind, although the group also displayed subtlety where it was needed. The opening minute of \"Roundabout,\" the album opener -- and the basis for the edited single that would reach number 13 on the Billboard charts and get the group onto AM radio in a way that most other prog rock outfits could only look upon with envy -- was dominated by Howe's acoustic guitar and Bill Bruford's drums, and only in the middle section did the band show some of what they could do with serious amperage. Elsewhere on the record, as on \"South Side of the Sky,\" they would sound as though they were ready to leave the ground (and the planet), between the volume and intensity of their playing. \"Long Distance Runaround,\" which also served as the B-side of the single, was probably the most accessible track here apart from \"Roundabout,\" but they were both ambitious enough to carry most listeners on to the heavier sides at the core of this long-player. The solo tracks by the members were actually a necessity: they needed to get Fragile out in a hurry to cover the cost of the keyboards that Wakeman had added to the group's sonic arsenal. But they ended up being more than filler. Each member, in effect, took a \"bow\" in mostly fairly serious settings, and Squire's \"The Fish\" and Howe's \"Mood for a Day\" pointed directly to future, more substantial projects as well as taking on a life of their own on-stage. If not exactly their peak, Fragile was as perfect a record as the group would ever make, and just as flawless in its timing as its content.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Bruce Eder\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"...The overall breadth of this One-Step offering brings into further focus both the collective and singular strengths of this definitive Yes incarnation. In fact, that's how you should listen to it - first to enjoy the compositional prowess of the whole, next to zero in on the contributions of the individual band members. That way, each successive spin will bear additional aural witness to Jon Anderson's clever \"sharp, distance\" whisper-to-a-scream lead-vocal choices saturating \"Heart of the Sunrise\", Bill Bruford's deft cymbal and stickwork throughout \"Roundabout\", Rick Wakeman's piano-key resonance during the transitional break in \"South Side of the Sky\", Steve Howe's adroit acoustic-string touches on \"Mood for a Day\", and Chris Squire's low-end thunder percolating the transition from \"Long Distance Runaround\" into \"The Fish (Shindleria Praematurus).\" There's no roundabout way of saying it: MoFi's One Step \u003ci\u003eFragile\u003c\/i\u003e is a true heavyweight SuperVinyl champion.\"\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e- Mike Mettler, \u003ci\u003eThe Absolute Sound Magazine, \u003c\/i\u003eApril 2020\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltraDisc One-Step :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eInstead of utilizing the industry-standard three-step lacquer process, Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab's new UltraDisc One-Step (UD1S) uses only one step, bypassing two processes of generational loss. While three-step processing is designed for optimum yield and efficiency, UD1S is created for the ultimate in sound quality. Just as Mobile Fidelity pioneered the UHQR (Ultra High-Quality Record) with JVC in the 1980s, UD1S again represents another state-of-the-art advance in the record-manufacturing process. MFSL engineers begin with the original master tapes and meticulously cut a set of lacquers. These lacquers are used to create a very fragile, pristine UD1S stamper called a \"convert.\" Delicate \"converts\" are then formed into the actual record stampers, producing a final product that literally and figuratively brings you closer to the music. By skipping the additional steps of pulling another positive and an additional negative, as done in the three-step process used in standard pressings, UD1S produces a final LP with the lowest noise floor possible today. The removal of the additional two steps of generational loss in the plating process reveals tremendous amounts of extra musical detail and dynamics, which are otherwise lost due to the standard copying process. The exclusive nature of these very limited pressings guarantees that every UD1S pressing serves as an immaculate replica of the lacquer sourced directly from the original master tape. Every conceivable aspect of vinyl production is optimized to produce the most perfect record album available today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMoFi SuperVinyl:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe World's Quietest Surfaces and Cleanest Grooves: Developed by NEOTECH and RTI, MoFi SuperVinyl is the most exacting-to-specification vinyl compound ever created.

The vinyl composition features a new carbonless dye (hold the disc up to the light and see) and produces the world's quietest surfaces. This high-definition formula also allows for the creation of cleaner grooves that are indistinguishable from the original lacquer.

Replacing the fiery Michael Bloomfield with the intense, weaving guitar of Robbie Robertson, Bob Dylan led a group comprised of his touring band the Hawks and session musicians through his richest set of songs. Blonde on Blonde is an album of enormous depth, providing endless lyrical and musical revelations on each play. Leavening the edginess of Highway 61 with a sense of the absurd, Blonde on Blonde is comprised entirely of songs driven by inventive, surreal, and witty wordplay, not only on the rockers but also on winding, moving ballads like \"Visions of Johanna,\" \"Just Like a Woman,\" and \"Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands.\" Throughout the record, the music matches the inventiveness of the songs, filled with cutting guitar riffs, liquid organ riffs, crisp pianos, and even woozy brass bands (\"Rainy Day Women #12 \u0026amp; 35\").

No other artist in popular music knew so well, and expressed through his music so naturally, the shades of gray inherent in contemporary inner-city life. His debut solo album, 1970's Curtis, had shown in vivid colors that the '60s optimist (author of the civil-rights anthems \"Keep On Pushing\" and \"People Get Ready\") had added a layer of subtlety to his material; appearing on the same LP as the positive and issue-oriented \"Move On Up\" was an apocalyptic piece of brimstone funk titled \"(Don't Worry) If There's a Hell Below, We're All Going to Go.\" For Super Fly, Mayfield wisely avoids celebrating the wheeling-and-dealing themes present in the movie, or exploiting them, instead using each song to focus on a different aspect of what he saw as a plague on America's streets. He also steers away from explicit moralizing; through his songs, Mayfield simply tells it like it is (for the characters in the film as in real life), with any lessons learned the result of his vibrant storytelling and knack of getting inside the heads of the characters. \"Freddie's Dead,\" one of the album's signature pieces, tells the story of one of the film's main casualties, a good-hearted yet weak-willed man caught up in the life of a pusher, and devastatingly portrays the indifference of those who witness or hear about it. \"Pusherman\" masterfully uses the metaphor of drug dealer as businessman, with the drug game, by extension, just another way to make a living in a tough situation, while the title track equates hustling with gambling (\"The game he plays he plays for keeps\/hustlin' times and ghetto streets\/tryin' ta get over\"). Ironically, the sound of Super Fly positively overwhelmed its lyrical finesse. A melange of deep, dark grooves, trademarked wah-wah guitar, and stinging brass, Super Fly ignited an entire genre of music, the blaxploitation soundtrack, and influenced everyone from soul singers to television-music composers for decades to come. It stands alongside Saturday Night Fever and Never Mind the Bollocks Here's the Sex Pistols as one of the most vivid touchstones of '70s pop music.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by John Bush\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed. A typical 33 1\/3 rpm record is cut at 16 2\/3 rpm. The source material is also slowed down (reducing the pitch in the process) meaning the final record will still sound normal when played back. Slowing the whole process down allows more time, which means the end result sounds better and is more efficient — allowing engineering to minimize the effects of inherent limitations within the vinyl format.

From these meager beginnings grew his greatest album. Duane Allman joined the band shortly after recording began, and his spectacular slide guitar pushed Clapton to new heights. Then again, Clapton may have gotten there without him, considering the emotional turmoil he was in during the recording. He was in hopeless, unrequited love with Pattie Boyd, the wife of his best friend, George Harrison, and that pain surges throughout Layla, especially on its epic title track. But what really makes Layla such a powerful record is that Clapton, ignoring the traditions that occasionally painted him into a corner, simply tears through these songs with burning, intense emotion. He makes standards like \"Have You Ever Loved a Woman\" and \"Nobody Knows You (When You're Down and Out)\" into his own, while his collaborations with Bobby Whitlock -- including \"Any Day\" and \"Why Does Love Got to Be So Sad?\" -- teem with passion. And, considering what a personal album Layla is, it's somewhat ironic that the lovely coda \"Thorn Tree in the Garden\" is a solo performance by Whitlock, and that the song sums up the entire album as well as \"Layla\" itself.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

Naturally, this means that Mark Knopfler's ambitions as a songwriter are growing, as the storytelling pretensions of Making Movies indicate. Fortunately, his skills are increasing, as the lovely \"Romeo and Juliet,\" \"Tunnel of Love,\" and \"Skateaway\" indicate. And Making Movies is helped by a new wave-tinged pop production, which actually helps Knopfler's jazzy inclinations take hold. The record runs out of steam toward the end, closing with the borderline offensive \"Les Boys,\" but the remainder of Making Movies ranks among the band's finest work.\" AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

Mark Knopfler and co. had established a sound (derived largely from J.J. Cale) of laid-back shuffles and intricate, bluesy guitar playing, and Communiqué provided more examples of it. But there was no track as focused as \"Sultans of Swing,\" even if \"Lady Writer\" (a lesser singles chart entry on both sides of the Atlantic) nearly duplicated its sound.

Driven by Mark Knopfler's spare, tasteful guitar lines and his husky warbling, the album is a set of bluesy rockers. And while the bar band mentality of pub-rock is at the core of Dire Straits -- even the group's breakthrough single, \"Sultans of Swing,\" offered a lament for a neglected pub rock band -- their music is already beyond the simple boogies and shuffles of their forefathers, occasionally dipping into jazz and country. Knopfler also shows an inclination toward Dylanesque imagery, which enhances the smoky, low-key atmosphere of the album. While a few of the songs fall flat, the album is remarkably accomplished for a debut, and Dire Straits had difficulty surpassing it throughout their career.\" \u003cspan\u003eAllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

It isn't as rich as Freewheelin', and Dylan has tempered his sense of humor considerably, choosing to concentrate on social protests in the style of \"Blowin' in the Wind.\" With the title track, he wrote an anthem that nearly equaled that song, and \"With God on Our Side\" and \"Only a Pawn in Their Game\" are nearly as good, while \"Ballad of Hollis Brown\" and \"The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll\" are remarkably skilled re-castings of contemporary tales of injustice. His absurdity is missed, but he makes up for it with the wonderful \"One Too Many Mornings\" and \"Boots of Spanish Leather,\" two lovely classics. If there are a couple of songs that don't achieve the level of the aforementioned songs, that speaks more to the quality of those songs than the weakness of the remainder of the record.

The result is a more accurate and more open high-frequency response in the half speed vinyl when compared with a normal speed recording.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 4,5 \/ 5 , Discogs : 4,38 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41053091266711,"sku":"MFSL2-460M","price":95.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/bob-dylan-the-times-they-are-a-changin-2lp-mono-ultra-analog-half-speed-mastering-45-rpm-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719854100"},{"product_id":"bob-dylan-bob-dylan-2lp-mono-ultra-analog-45-rpm","title":"Bob Dylan - Bob Dylan (2LP, Mono, Ultra Analog, Half-speed Mastering, 45 RPM)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBob Dylan – vocals, acoustic guitar, harmonica \u003ca title=\"vinyl featuring Bob Dylan\" href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/bob-dylan\" style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Bob Dylan]\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWritten by Bob Dylan\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2 LPs, gatefold sleeve\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumbered edition limited to 3,000 copies\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal analog Master tape : YES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed Mastering\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGain 2™ Ultra Analog\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy Press : 180g\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord color : black\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpeed : 45RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize : 12”\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMono\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStudio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord Press : RTI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel : MOFI\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Label : Columbia\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecorded \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNovember 20 and 22, 1961\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e in \u003c\/span\u003eColumbia Studio A, 799 Seventh Avenue, New York City\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduced by John Hammond\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRemastered by Krieg Wunderlich\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginally released in 1962\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReissued in 2018\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracks:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide A :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou're No Good\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTalkin' New York\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn My Time Of Dyin'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMan Of Constant Sorrow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide B :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"5\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFixin' To Die\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePretty Peggy-O\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighway 51\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide C :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"8\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGospel Plow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaby, Let Me Follow You Down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHouse Of The Risin' Sun \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide D :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"11\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFreight Train Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSong To Woody\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSee That My Grave Is Kept Clean\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Bob Dylan's first album is a lot like the debut albums by the Beatles and the Rolling Stones -- a sterling effort, outclassing most, if not all, of what came before it in the genre, but similarly eclipsed by the artist's own subsequent efforts. The difference was that not very many people heard Bob Dylan on its original release (originals on the early-'60s Columbia label are choice collectibles) because it was recorded with a much smaller audience and musical arena in mind. At the time of Bob Dylan's release, the folk revival was rolling, and interpretation was considered more important than original composition by most of that audience. A significant portion of the record is possessed by the style and spirit of Woody Guthrie, whose influence as a singer and guitarist hovers over \"Man of Constant Sorrow\" and \"Pretty Peggy-O,\" as well as the two originals here, the savagely witty \"Talkin' New York\" and the poignant \"Song to Woody\"; and it's also hard to believe that he wasn't aware of Jimmie Rodgers and Roy Acuff when he cut \"Freight Train Blues.\" But on other songs, one can also hear the influences of Bukka White, Blind Lemon Jefferson, Blind Willie Johnson, and Furry Lewis, in the playing and singing, and this is where Dylan departed significantly from most of his contemporaries. Other white folksingers of the era, including his older contemporaries Eric Von Schmidt and Dave Van Ronk, had incorporated blues in their work, but Dylan's presentation was more in your face, resembling in some respects (albeit in a more self-conscious way) the work of John Hammond, Jr., the son of the man who signed Dylan to Columbia Records and produced this album, who was just starting out in his own career at the time this record was made. There's a punk-like aggressiveness to the singing and playing here. His raspy-voiced delivery and guitar style were modeled largely on Guthrie's classic '40s and early-'50s recordings, but the assertiveness of the bluesmen he admires also comes out, making this one of the most powerful records to come out of the folk revival of which it was a part. Within a year of its release, Dylan, initially in tandem with young folk\/protest singers like Peter, Paul \u0026amp; Mary and Phil Ochs, would alter the boundaries of that revival beyond recognition, but this album marked the pinnacle of that earlier phase, before it was overshadowed by this artist's more ambitious subsequent work. In that regard, the two original songs here serve as the bridge between Dylan's stylistic roots, as delineated on this album, and the more powerful and daringly original work that followed. One myth surrounding this album should also be dispelled here -- his version of \"House of the Rising Sun\" here is worthwhile, but the version that was the inspiration for the Animals' recording was the one by Josh White.\" AllMusic Review by Bruce Eder  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

up the '60s. Here, the Jefferson Airplane presents itself in full revolutionary rhetoric, issuing a call to \"tear down the walls\" and \"get it on together.\" \"We Can Be Together\" and \"Volunteers\" bookend the album, offering musical variations on the same chord progression and lyrical variations on the same theme. Between these politically charged rock anthems, the band offers a mix of words and music that reflect the competing ideals of simplicity and getting \"back to the earth,\" and overthrowing greed and exploitation through political activism, adding a healthy dollop of psychedelic sci-fi for texture. Guitarist Jorma Kaukonen's beautiful arrangement of the traditional \"Good Shepherd\" is a standout here, and Jerry Garcia's pedal steel guitar gives \"The Farm\" an appropriately rural feel. The band's version of \"Wooden Ships\" is much more eerie than that released earlier in the year by Crosby, Stills \u0026amp; Nash. Oblique psychedelia is offered here via Grace Slick's \"Hey Frederick\" and ecologically tinged \"Eskimo Blue Day.\" Drummer Spencer Dryden gives an inside look at the state of the band in the country singalong \"A Song for All Seasons.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe musical arrangements here are quite potent. Nicky Hopkins' distinctive piano highlights a number of tracks, and Kaukonen's razor-toned lead guitar is the recording's unifying force, blazing through the mix, giving the album its distinctive sound. Although the political bent of the lyrics may seem dated to some, listening to Volunteers is like opening a time capsule on the end of an era, a time when young people still believed music had the power to change the world.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Jim Newsom\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

And decades later the album still comes off as strong as any of those artists' best work. From the Top Ten singles \"White Rabbit\" and \"Somebody to Love\" to the sublime \"Embryonic Journey,\" the sensibilities are fierce, the material manages to be both melodic and complex (and it rocks, too), and the performances, sparked by new member Grace Slick on most of the lead vocals, are inspired, helped along by Jerry Garcia (serving as spiritual and musical advisor and sometimes guitarist). Every song is a perfectly cut diamond, too perfect in the eyes of the bandmembers, who felt that following the direction of producer Rick Jarrard and working within three- and four-minute running times, and delivering carefully sung accompaniments and succinct solos, resulted in a record that didn't represent their real sound. Regardless, they did wonderful things with the music within that framework, and the only pity is that RCA didn't record for official release any of the group's shows from the same era, when this material made up the bulk of their repertory. That way the live versions, with the band's creativity unrestricted, could be compared and contrasted with the record. The songwriting was spread around between Marty Balin, Slick, Paul Kantner, and Jorma Kaukonen, and Slick and Balin (who never had a prettier song than \"Today,\" which he'd actually written for Tony Bennett) shared the vocals; the whole album was resplendent in a happy balance of all of these creative elements, before excessive experimentation (musical and chemical) began affecting the band's ability to do a straightforward song.

The band was the Jefferson Airplane from San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district-the counterculture's ground zero. The 1967 blockbuster release harboring these hits was Surrealistic Pillow, whose 11 tracks were in reality less trippy psychedelia and more a fusion of rock and folk, with harmonies echoing the Byrds, the Yardbirds, or The Mamas and the Papas. It was the Airplane's second release and crucially the first with added power-vocalist Grace Slick and drummer Spencer Dryden, who joined singer Marty Balin, singer\/guitarist Paul Kantner, guitarist Jorma Kaukonen, and bassist Jack Casady. MoFi's 45rpm double LP is a beautifully packaged gatefold. Sides are short but surfaces are quiet, the sound vintage analog. But what makes this remastering significant is the use of the monaural mix. Much less reverb was applied compared to the stereo originals, giving each track a stunning clarity and detail and intimacy-and a far heavier, more cohesive energy that places the spotlight on the musicianship and enlivens classic tracks like \"Today\" and \"Plastic Fantastic Lover.\" If you've only known the stereo version, you're in for a real treat.\" Neil Gader, \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Absolute Sound\u003c\/i\u003e, October 2016\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

The result is a more accurate and more open high-frequency response in the half speed vinyl when compared with a normal speed recording.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 5 \/ 5 , Discogs : 4,38 \/ 5  ,  \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Absolute Sound : \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e 5\/5 Music, 5\/5 Sonics  ,  Michael Fremer : Music = 10\/11; Sound = 11\/11\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41053841096855,"sku":"MFSL2-456","price":95.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/jefferson-airplane-surrealistic-pillow-2lp-mono-ultra-analog-half-speed-mastering-45-rpm-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719854101"},{"product_id":"alan-parsons-project-i-robot-2lp-ultra-analog-45-rpm","title":"Alan Parsons Project - I Robot (2LP, 45RPM, Ultra Analog, Half-speed Mastering)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/the-alan-parsons-project\" title=\"vinyl featuring The Alan Parsons Project\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 128, 0);\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring The Alan Parsons Project]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAlan Parsons – keyboards, vocoder, backing vocals, acoustic guitar\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDavid Paton – bass, acoustic guitar, backing vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStuart Tosh – drums, percussion, backing vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIan Bairnson – electric and acoustic guitars, backing vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEric Woolfson – keyboards, vocoder, backing vocals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDuncan Mackay – keyboards\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eB.J.

Borrowing not just its title but concept from Isaac Asimov's classic sci-fi Robot trilogy, this album explores many of the philosophies regarding artificial intelligence -- will it overtake man, what does it mean to be man, what responsibilities do mechanical beings have to their creators, and so on and so forth -- with enough knotty intelligence to make it a seminal text of late-'70s geeks, and while it is also true that appreciating I Robot does require a love of either sci-fi or art rock, it is also true that sci-fi art rock never came any better than this. Compare it to Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds, released just a year after this and demonstrating some clear influence from Parsons: that flirts voraciously with camp, but this, for all of its pomp and circumstance, for all of its overblown arrangements, this is music that's played deadly serious. Even when the vocal choirs pile up at the end of \"Breakdown\" or when the Project delves into some tight, glossy white funk on \"The Voice,\" complete with punctuations from robotic voices and whining slide guitars, there isn't much sense of fun, but there is a sense of mystery and a sense of drama that can be very absorbing if you're prepared to give yourself over to it. The most fascinating thing about the album is that the music is restless, shifting from mood to mood within the course of a song, but unlike some art pop there is attention paid to hooks -- most notably, of course, on the hit \"I Wouldn't Want to Be Like You,\" a tense, paranoid neo-disco rocker that was the APP's breakthrough. It's also the closest thing to a concise pop song here -- other tunes have plenty of hooks, but they change their tempo and feel quickly, which is what makes this an art rock album instead of a pop album. And while that may not snare in listeners who love the hit (they should turn to Eye in the Sky instead, the Project's one true pop album), that sense of melody when married to the artistic restlessness and geeky sensibility makes for a unique, compelling album and the one record that truly captures mind and spirit of the Alan Parsons Project.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHalf-speed mastering. \u003c\/strong\u003eIn half-speed mastering, the whole process is slowed down to half of the original speed.

Thanks also to a more consistent set of songs, the results are magnificent -- given room to breathe, Joplin's trademark rasp conveys an aching, desperate passion on funked-up, bluesy rockers, ballads both dramatic and tender, and her signature song, the posthumous number one hit \"Me and Bobby McGee.\" The unfinished \"Buried Alive in the Blues\" features no Joplin vocals -- she was scheduled to record them on the day after she was found dead. Its incompleteness mirrors Joplin's career: Pearl's power leaves the listener to wonder what else Joplin could have accomplished, but few artists could ask for a better final statement.\" \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic Review by Steve Huey\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUltra Analog™\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e : The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog™ Series stems from the use of the Gain 2 system, mastered at half speed from the original master tapes where possible, capturing and uncovering as before undiscovered sonic information.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic : 5 \/ 5 , Discogs : 4,33 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41054110515351,"sku":"MFSL2-454","price":95.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/janis-joplin-pearl-2lp-ultra-analog-45rpm-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719854110"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/collections\/mofi.png?v=1719821055","url":"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/label-mobile-fidelity-sound.oembed?page=8","provider":"AudioSoundMusic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
