In early 1963, pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Jimmy Cobb left to form their own trio, and Davis was forced to form a new band, which included Memphis tenor player George Coleman and bassist Ron Carter. When Davis next entered the studio in Hollywood, he added local drummer Frank Butler and British studio ace Victor Feldman, who ultimately decided not to go on the road with Davis. It's easy to see why Davis liked Feldman, who contributed the dancing title tune and \"Joshua\" to the session. On three mellifluous standards -- particularly a cerebral \"Basin Street Blues\" and a broken-hearted \"I Fall in Love Too Easily\" -- the pianist plays with an elegant, refined touch, and the kind of rarefied voicings that suggest Ahmad Jamal. Davis responds with some of his most introspective, romantic ballad playing. When Davis returned to New York he finally succeeded in spiriting away a brilliantly gifted 17-year-old drummer from Jackie McLean: Tony Williams. On the title tune you can already hear the difference, as his crisp, driving cymbal beat and jittery, aggressive syncopations propel Davis into the upper reaches of his horn. On \"So Near, So Far\" the drummer combines with Carter and new pianist Herbie Hancock to expand on a light Afro-Cuban beat with a series of telepathic changes in tempo, texture, and dynamics. Meanwhile, Feldman's \"Joshua\" (with its overtones of \"So What\" and \"All Blues\") portends the kind of expressive variations on the basic 4\/4 pulse that would become the band's trademark, as Davis and Coleman ascend into bebop heaven.\" AllMusic Review by Rovi Staff\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllMusic 4.5\/5  ,   Discogs 4.5 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40995199123607,"sku":"AAPJ 8851","price":65.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/miles-davis-seven-steps-to-heaven-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719853798"},{"product_id":"miles-davis-seven-steps-to-heaven-2lp-45rpm","title":"Miles Davis - Seven Steps to Heaven (2LP, 45RPM)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrumpet – Miles Davis \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/miles-davis\" title=\"vinyl featuring Miles Davis\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/miles-davis\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Miles Davis]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePiano – Herbie Hancock (B1, C1, D1) \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/herbie-hancock\" title=\"vinyl featuring Herbie Hancock\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/herbie-hancock\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Herbie Hancock]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePiano - Victor Feldman (A1, B2, C2)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrums – Anthony Williams (B1, C1, D1), Frank Butler (A1, B2, C2)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBass – Ron Carter \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003ca title=\"Vinyl featuring Ron Carter\" href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/ron-carter\" style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/ron-carter\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Ron Carter]\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTenor Saxophone – George Coleman \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/george-coleman\" title=\"vinyl featuring George Coleman\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/george-coleman\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring George Coleman]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2 LPs, Gatefold jacket\u003c\/strong\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\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 :  Quality Record Pressings\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel :  Analogue Productions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Label :  Columbia \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecorded at Columbia 30th Street Studio and Columbia Studios, Hollywood\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngineered by Fred Plaut\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduced by Teo Macero\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRemastered by Ryan K.

In early 1963, pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Jimmy Cobb left to form their own trio, and Davis was forced to form a new band, which included Memphis tenor player George Coleman and bassist Ron Carter. When Davis next entered the studio in Hollywood, he added local drummer Frank Butler and British studio ace Victor Feldman, who ultimately decided not to go on the road with Davis. It's easy to see why Davis liked Feldman, who contributed the dancing title tune and \"Joshua\" to the session. On three mellifluous standards -- particularly a cerebral \"Basin Street Blues\" and a broken-hearted \"I Fall in Love Too Easily\" -- the pianist plays with an elegant, refined touch, and the kind of rarefied voicings that suggest Ahmad Jamal. Davis responds with some of his most introspective, romantic ballad playing. When Davis returned to New York he finally succeeded in spiriting away a brilliantly gifted 17-year-old drummer from Jackie McLean: Tony Williams. On the title tune you can already hear the difference, as his crisp, driving cymbal beat and jittery, aggressive syncopations propel Davis into the upper reaches of his horn. On \"So Near, So Far\" the drummer combines with Carter and new pianist Herbie Hancock to expand on a light Afro-Cuban beat with a series of telepathic changes in tempo, texture, and dynamics. Meanwhile, Feldman's \"Joshua\" (with its overtones of \"So What\" and \"All Blues\") portends the kind of expressive variations on the basic 4\/4 pulse that would become the band's trademark, as Davis and Coleman ascend into bebop heaven.\" AllMusic Review by Rovi Staff\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings

It’s the fourth, and first non-sequential, entry in this series that commenced late last year with Steely Dan’s November 1972 debut Can’t Buy a Thrill, followed by July 1973’s Countdown to Ecstasy, and then February 1974’s Pretzel Logic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNow, rather than rush-post my review of the Aja UHQR just to coincide with the release date (having only gotten it in hand that midweek), I instead chose to live with this particular collection a bit longer in order to properly compare it with some of my other cherished LP copies of Aja — namely, my original September 1977 ABC AA-1006, 1980 Mobile Fidelity MFSL 1-033, and 2007 Cisco CLP-1006.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe shared the balance of the Aja release stats in our News post back on August 8, but to summarize the most vital portion of its core vitals, the Aja UHQR was remastered by Bernie Grundman from an analog, non-EQ’d, tape copy. The reason for this tape-copy exception to the full-original-source AAA standard that we prefer and the balance of the UHQR series proffers is that parent label UMe confirmed there is “no evidence” the original tapes containing the flat mixes of Aja were delivered to the record label, and it remains presumed those tapes “no longer exist.” (The tape boxes pics you see here both directly below and a little further on in this review are what’s shown in the Aja UHQR liner notes booklet.) \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat all being said, there are indeed numerous threads out on the interwebs about the source material for this release, as well as that 2007 Cisco reissue overseen by Elliot Scheiner, one of Aja’s original engineers, the one that Kevin Gray and Robert Pincus mastered from “the original analog tape” at AcousTec, not to mention the other Aja LP offerings that can be found here, there, and everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor additional source-centric perspective — and to reiterate the balance of one of the extended Comments I made underneath that initial August 8 Aja News post — I went back to the transcript of my firsthand interview with the late, great Steely Dan co-founder Walter Becker that took place by phone on January 25, 2005, a landline call that started at 1:20 p.m. Eastern time. We were both in New York City at the time of that interview, and Becker had also just recently appeared on a panel I hosted at CES in Las Vegas just a few weeks prior, one that was centered on multichannel sound. (Dweezil Zappa was also on that panel, but I digress.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring our interview, when I asked Becker about the status of any\/all Steely Dan reissues at that point in time in 2005, he said, direct quote, “Aja is missing some of the master tapes. At one point, we offered $600 for their return, but there were no takers.” When I then suggested, “Maybe if you had offered $750, you would’ve gotten somewhere,” he replied, “Yeah, in Euros. Not American, not Canadian.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e So, just what did he mean by “their return”? Well, if we go back to the liner notes Becker and Donald Fagen provided for the 1999 MCA CD reissue of Aja and get to the part where they discuss what happened when they “sent for” the multitrack masters of Aja, they, quote, “discovered that the two-inch multitracks of the songs “Aja” and “Black Cow” were nowhere to be found. They had somehow become separated from the other boxes. which the producer [whom we can reasonably presume is a reference to Gary Katz] had abandoned here and there (studios, storage lockers, etc.) almost twenty years before.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter providing a then-management address and phone number to reach out to for “anyone having information about the whereabouts of these missing two-inch tapes,” the final kicker they added was, “There will be a $600.00 reward for anyone who successfully leads us to the tapes. This is not a joke. Happy hunting.” And, as Becker had confirmed with me as quoted above, which was at a time between five and six years after that initial offer was made, no one had taken them up on it — at least not at that particular reward amount, I should add.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdmittedly, both of those above-cited direct comments each occurred a few years before the aforementioned Cisco LP was released in 2007, so perhaps the missing two-inch multitrack tapes were indeed found and returned in the interim, but I’m honestly not so sure about that. Scheiner didn’t recall it that way about having the originals in hand when I asked him about it in 2017, and Gray has since offered his own theories about what tape materials the UMe parent company gave him to work with (and why) elsewhere on the interwebs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt any rate, I felt including all that source-centric preamble upfront gives you some extended food for thought as you contemplate adding the Aja UHQR to your own SD LP collection. So, how does it stack up? Let’s dive into it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Overall, I experienced no inner-groove distortion nor any pops and\/or clicks each time through all four sides of the Aja UHQR. Both clarity-vinyl LPs are well-centered, quiet, and flat. Even better than all that important needle-drop data, the UHQR Aja is an exciting listen. It’s engaging. The top is there, the mids are there, and the low end is where it belongs — in the intended pocket rather than being intrusive and\/or distracting like it is on a certain other Aja pressing that I’ll get further into later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the Side A album-opening track, “Black Cow,” Joe Sample’s clavinet has a presence that’s more dimensional than it is on the other pressings, and the four femmes background vocal blend (courtesy Clydie King, Sherlie Matthews, Venetta Fields, and Rebecca Louis) is upfront, precise, and clear on lines like “I can’t cry anymore \/ While you run around \/ (While you run around)” — ditto how they consistently complement Fagen’s leads. Plus, Tom Scott’s tenor sax just swings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrack 2, “Aja,” continues the UHQR excellence. Steve Gadd’s cymbal work, the right-channel guitar counters, and Sample’s left-channel Fender Rhodes at the outset, in addition to Victor Feldman’s percussion on the choruses, are all highlights — though I did notice Fagen’s lead vocal appears to be tightly clipped after he sings “you” in the first occurrence of the phrase “I run to you,” something that’s not that way on the other vintage pressings but is also noticeable on the concurrent Geffen\/UMe 180g 1LP Aja. (A “hmm” moment, to be sure — but not enough to qualify for a ratings demerit.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNaturally, I also zeroed in on the interplay between tenor saxman Wayne Shorter and drummer Steve Gadd during their solo sequence in the title song’s back half, wherein the two of them come across even bolder and on equal par on the UHQR, by far.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen I spoke with Gadd about his work on the song “Aja” during a phone interview conducted on February 7, 2018, he confirmed that the furious nature of that solo section (and the ensuing outro) was exactly what was called for there by the two main Dans, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen. “I was just trying to understand musically what they wanted me to do there in terms of how ‘busy’ it was,” Gadd explained, “and I was trying to play around those figures.” In effect, Gadd was responding to what Shorter had already laid down for the track, since the two artists didn’t play that sequence together. “It was building toward the end of the song, and that’s the way I would have approached it either way,” Gadd continued. “Those were the figures they wanted me to cover — so that’s what I did. And it was not normal for that to happen in pop music. It was more of a jazz thing at the end, which pulled it together and tied it all together.” Gadd’s sixteenth note triplets toward the very end, with those slabs of synths aswirl all around him, is as sublime as it gets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComparatively, the mix of “Aja” on my Cisco pressing is, frankly, too laid back and too polite for my taste — and I can say that for the balance of what I’ve heard (and continue to hear) overall on the Cisco LP time and again, for that matter. Sure, the Cisco is admittedly quite a good listen if it’s your main reference point, and it’s certainly preferable to the low-end-offending Mobile Fidelity pressing where the bass content consistently pops and burbles in places where it really shouldn’t. If I didn’t have that original AA-1006, perhaps I’d like the Cisco even more than I do, but it just doesn’t move me like the 1006 consistently has over all these years. That all said, none of those other pressings are as engagng a listen as the UHQR Aja is, period. It’s the next level up from the overall dynamism of the original 1006 — and, ultimately, isn’t that what we all want to experience if we’re going to invest our time and money in reissues and remasters that carry hefty price tags like the entries in the SD UHQR series do?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery time I’ve cued up all four sides of the Aja UHQR — sometimes respecting the running order and other times not, just to dive into it fresh — I’ve been fully engaged in what I’m hearing. It’s a thoroughly thrilling listening experience from beginning to end, and back again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Deacon Blues,” the only track on Side B, again comes through with the Fagen\/three femmes (King, Matthews, Fields) vocal blend — something that has been admittedly less so on other pressings. Pete Christlieb’s tenor sax is in the right support spot on the choruses and in the transitions to the ensuing verses, later coming to the forefront for his wonderful solo then laying down a fine sax bed amidst the wide guitar chucka-chuckas through the fade, all of which benefits from being able to breathe as this side’s lone track, rather than it being the third track at the end of the first side of the other LPs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI’ll get to “Peg,” which opens Side C, in a moment, but its Side C songmate, “Home at Last,” sees Feldman doing double duty on piano (clear and resonant, and all on its own during the intro) and vibraphone, with Becker taking a clean, tasteful guitar solo. Side D opens with the funkified “I Got the News,” where Chuck Rainey’s bass has got the right muscle and is in the right place, as are Feldman’s recurring piano stabs. Finally, “Josie” takes it all home to end the album — so good! The opening chimes wash clean across the soundstage, Fagen’s emphatic “No!” — his in-the-moment sneer\/response kicker to the previous line, “She’ll never say no”— exhibits the volume punch and coy swagger it requires, and then the full stop after the first guitar solo has exactly the right impact as intended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e111723.aprevSteely Dan Aja UHQRSideC.jpg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut now, back to the Side C opener “Peg,” a song that again delivers on the dynamics. Rick Marotta’s cymbal work spreads wide across the soundstage and his snare crack just a few seconds before Fagen’s lead vocals begin is super-tight. Rainey’s bass resides right where it belongs — though, on that youknowwhat MoFi, it’s much too prominent and pronounced on the verses. And, again, yes, the 1006 “Peg” is indeed closer to the UHQR, but still somewhat in its shadow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lilt in Fagen’s lead vocal seems to foreshadow that of the character he portrays while singing Gaucho’s “Hey Nineteen.” Meanwhile, Michael McDonald’s multitracked backing vocals on “Peg” are crystal-clear, smooth, and out front on each chorus, perhaps even taking some of the focus away from Fagen’s own singing, but that doesn’t bother me any. Those up\/down swoops of each syllable of “the shutter falls” and “3-D” are Master Class-level. (Yes, Paul Griffin also gets a backing vocal credit here, but apparently he’s the one doing all those vocal improvs in the back half. Maybe, just maybe, he’s giving a wink and a nod to a certain lead-vocal member of The Jacksons with that first brief “ohh-hoh!” outburst — or maybe not. Or maybe Fagen did that one.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMcDonald’s vocal character is less engaging on the Cisco, especially given how it is so distinct on the UHQR. In short, “Peg” is textbook McDonald. “I learned something about my voice in the sense of my doing backgrounds — when I sang with myself, there was a certain kind of ethereal quality to doing that that caused a certain kind of phasing and a certain kind of sound that I used, to a great extent, with the Doobies later,” McDonald told me when I asked him specifically about what he did on “Peg” during a phone interview we conducted on March 14, 2019. “There were songs where I realized, ‘If I do the backgrounds alone on this one, it’ll create that kind of vibe and that sound that I learned to do with Steely Dan.’” (See the 1978 Doobies classic single “What a Fool Believes” for the chart-topping evolution of that particular M.McD M.O., which also extends to his leads on the choruses.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith all that in mind, I’m very much looking forward to hearing just how McDonald’s backgrounds come across on other SD tracks like “Time Out of Mind” on the Gaucho UHQR that’s slated to come our way next month, as well as on “Bad Sneakers” and other entries on the Katy Lied UHQR, which should be forthcoming sometime in 2024. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo recap it: The Aja patterns I’ve outlined at length here essentially hold true from track to track and from LP to LP, the bottom line being that the UHQR wins every time. It’s the most exciting and engaging version of Aja I’ve heard to date. It’s a notch-plus above my 1006, which I’ve loved since inception.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDollar for dollar, here’s how they all measure up in terms of what I paid for them — and do note that current prices may vary on Discogs as of this posting, depending on any available NM and\/or, if lucky, M copy you might seek. I paid the original sticker price for my original 1006, $37 for my MoFi (which also has a split seam at the top, but I uncharacteristically decided to live with it), $29.99 for the 180g UMe that we reviewed back on October 11, and (yep) $300 for my Cisco — the latter of which is straight up double what the UHQR will cost you. And the UHQR Aja is indeed worth every bit of those 1,500 dime dances, mind you — a.k.a. $150 — and you can buy your copy of it right here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo quantify my ratings, musically, Aja is an 11 — and always has been. Soundwise, the UHQR Aja hits at an 11. It never fails to engage me, spin after spin after spin. The original ABC 1006 is a 9, the Cisco is an 8, the MoFi is 7.5 (mainly due to that pesky bass content issue), and that recent 180g Geffen\/UMe is a 7 — so there you have it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnward, then, to the UHQR for Gaucho, amigo, which is slated for an early December release and has reportedly been sourced from a 1980 analog tape copy originally EQ’d by Bob Ludwig. Needless to say, keep a keen eye out for our Gaucho UHQR review when the time comes — and, of course, we’ll also review the concurrent Geffen\/UMe 180g 1LP Gaucho for further comparative context.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the meantime, if you want to consistently experience the best of what this particular 200g 45rpm 2LP Steely Dan series has to offer, then the Analogue Productions Aja fits the bill for being the pride of the UHQR neighborhood, hands down.” Analog Planet Review by Mike Mettler\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUHQR :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUHQR pressing is inspired from JVC Japan, which 30 years ago was the pinnacle of high-quality vinyl.

:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Musically, Can’t Buy A Thrill feels more three-dimensional on this UHQR edition than on other versions I’ve heard. Overall, the sound is super-clear and crisp, but ultimately presents the music more warmly than the standard 180g 1LP edition does. When you compare them side by side, you start noticing the differences between the UHQR and the standard edition — the sizzling cymbals aren’t quite as sizzly on the standard version, for one thing, and, comparatively, the vocals take on a bit of that raw edge around them. Plus, the congas feel less natural-sounding on the standard edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(…) Everything about this edition is super deluxe. The whole consumer experience is sumptuous, down to the outer album box’s wooden-spined, drawer style design, loosely reminiscent of certain deluxe edition releases from the 1950s by labels such as Angel Records and Everest Records — albeit much more striking with this edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 200g clear vinyl has that heft of a vintage record from the 1950s and\/or early-1960s — and, frankly, it seems extra-substantial to me. Is it because these LPs were pressed in such limited quantity by hand? If I can get extra-obsessive about it for a moment, this vinyl just feels nice in my hands, with silky smooth curves crafted with a sort of handmade precision more akin to something you might pick up from a skilled blacksmith or a woodworker, as opposed to churned out of a machine press.” Mark Smotroff, AnalogPlanet, Nov 15, 2022\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Walter Becker and Donald Fagen were remarkable craftsmen from the start, as Steely Dan's debut, Can't Buy a Thrill, illustrates. Each song is tightly constructed, with interlocking chords and gracefully interwoven melodies, buoyed by clever, cryptic lyrics. All of these are hallmarks of Steely Dan's signature sound, but what is most remarkable about the record is the way it differs from their later albums. Of course, one of the most notable differences is the presence of vocalist David Palmer, a professional blue-eyed soul vocalist who oversings the handful of tracks where he takes the lead. Palmer's very presence signals the one major flaw with the album -- in an attempt to appeal to a wide audience, Becker and Fagen tempered their wildest impulses with mainstream pop techniques. Consequently, there are very few of the jazz flourishes that came to distinguish their albums -- the breakthrough single, \"Do It Again,\" does work an impressively tight Latin jazz beat, and \"Reelin' in the Years\" has jazzy guitar solos and harmonies -- and the production is overly polished, conforming to all the conventions of early-'70s radio. Of course, that gives these decidedly twisted songs a subversive edge, but compositionally, these aren't as innovative as their later work. Even so, the best moments (\"Dirty Work,\" \"Kings,\" \"Midnight Cruiser,\" \"Turn That Heartbeat Over Again\") are wonderful pop songs that subvert traditional conventions and more than foreshadow the paths Steely Dan would later take.” AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUHQR :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUHQR pressing is inspired from JVC Japan, which 30 years ago was the pinnacle of high-quality vinyl. Each UHQR vinyl is pressed, using hand-selected vinyl, on a manual Finebilt press with attention paid to every single detail of every single record. The 200-gram records feature the same flat profile that helped to make the original UHQR so desirable. From the lead-in groove to the run-out groove, there is no pitch to the profile, allowing your stylus to play truly perpendicular to the grooves from edge to center. Every UHQR is hand-inspected upon pressing completion, and only the truly flawless are allowed to go to market.\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 : 4.4 \/ 5

was cool, relaxed, and controlled; it sounded deceptively easy. Its follow-up, Gaucho, while sonically similar, is its polar opposite: a precise and studied record, where all of the seams show. Gaucho essentially replicates the smooth jazz-pop of Aja, but with none of that record's dark, seductive romance or elegant aura. Instead, it's meticulous and exacting; each performance has been rehearsed so many times that it no longer has any emotional resonance. Furthermore, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen's songs are generally labored, only occasionally reaching their past heights, like on the suave \"Babylon Sisters,\" \"Time Out of Mind,\" and \"Hey Nineteen.\" Still, those three songs are barely enough to make the remainder of the album's glossy, meandering fusion worthwhile.” AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUHQR :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUHQR pressing is inspired from JVC Japan, which 30 years ago was the pinnacle of high-quality vinyl.

Buy a Thrill became an unexpected hit, and as a response, Donald Fagen became the group's full-time lead vocalist, and he and Walter Becker acted like Steely Dan was a rock \u0026amp; roll band for the group's second album, Countdown to Ecstasy. The loud guitars and pronounced backbeat of \"Bodhisattva,\" \"Show Biz Kids,\" and \"My Old School\" camouflage the fact that Countdown is a riskier album, musically speaking, than its predecessor. Each of its eight songs have sophisticated, jazz-inflected interludes, and apart from the bluesy vamps \"Bodhisattva\" and \"Show Biz Kids,\" which sound like they were written for the stage, the songs are subtly textured. \"Razor Boy,\" with its murmuring vibes, and the hard bop tribute \"Your Gold Teeth\" reveal Becker and Fagen's jazz roots, while the country-flavored \"Pearl of the Quarter\" and the ominous, skittering \"King of the World\" are both overlooked gems. Countdown to Ecstasy is the only time Steely Dan played it relatively straight, and its eight songs are rich with either musical or lyrical detail that their album rock or art rock contemporaries couldn't hope to match.” Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUHQR :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUHQR pressing is inspired from JVC Japan, which 30 years ago was the pinnacle of high-quality vinyl.

:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Building from the jazz fusion foundation of Pretzel Logic, Steely Dan created an alluringly sophisticated album of jazzy pop with Katy Lied. With this record, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen began relying solely on studio musicians, which is evident from the immaculate sound of the album. Usually, such a studied recording method would drain the life out of each song, but that's not the case with Katy Lied, which actually benefits from the duo's perfectionist tendencies. Each song is given a glossy sheen, one that accentuates not only the stronger pop hooks, but also the precise technical skill of the professional musicians drafted to play the solos. Essentially, Katy Lied is a smoother version of Pretzel Logic, featuring the same cross-section of jazz-pop and blues-rock. The lack of innovations doesn't hurt the record, since the songs are uniformly brilliant. Less overtly cynical than previous Dan albums, the album still has its share of lyrical stingers, but what's really notable are the melodies, from the seductive jazzy soul of \"Doctor Wu\" and the lazy blues of \"Chain Lightning\" to the terse \"Black Friday\" and mock calypso of \"Everyone's Gone to the Movies.\" It's another excellent record in one of the most distinguished rock \u0026amp; roll catalogs of the '70s.” AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUHQR :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUHQR pressing is inspired from JVC Japan, which 30 years ago was the pinnacle of high-quality vinyl. Each UHQR vinyl is pressed, using hand-selected vinyl, on a manual Finebilt press with attention paid to every single detail of every single record. The 200-gram records feature the same flat profile that helped to make the original UHQR so desirable. From the lead-in groove to the run-out groove, there is no pitch to the profile, allowing your stylus to play truly perpendicular to the grooves from edge to center. Every UHQR is hand-inspected upon pressing completion, and only the truly flawless are allowed to go to

Hejira is the last in an astonishingly long run of top-notch studio albums dating back to her debut. Some vestiges of her old style remain here; \"Song for Sharon\" utilizes the static, pithy vocal harmonies from Ladies of the Canyon's \"Woodstock,\" \"Refuge of the Roads\" features woodwind touches reminiscent of those in \"Barangrill\" from For the Roses, and \"Coyote\" is a fast guitar-strummed number that has precedents as far back as Clouds' \"Chelsea Morning.\" But by and large, this release is the most overtly jazz-oriented of her career up to this point -- hip and cool, but never smug or icy. \"Blue Motel Room\" in particular is a prototypic slow jazz-club combo number, appropriately smooth, smoky, and languorous. \"Coyote,\" \"Black Crow,\" and the title track are by contrast energetically restless fast-tempo selections. The rest of the songs here cleverly explore variants on mid- to slow-tempo approaches. None of these cuts are traditionally tuneful in the manner of Mitchell's older folk efforts; the effect here is one of subtle rolls and ridges on a green meadow rather than the outgoing beauty of a flower garden. Mitchell's verses, many concerned with character portraits, are among the most polished of her career; the most striking of these studies are that of the decrepit Delta crooner of \"Furry Sings the Blues\" and the ambivalent speaker of \"Song to Sharon,\" who has difficulty choosing between commitment and freedom. Arrangements are sparse, yet surprisingly varied, the most striking of which is the kaleidoscopically pointillistic one used on \"Amelia.\" Performances are excellent, with special kudos reserved for Jaco Pastorius' melodic bass playing on \"Refuge of the Roads\" and the title cut. This excellent album is a rewarding listen.” AllMusic Review by David Cleary\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltraDisc One-Step :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\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\/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 : 3.5 \/ 5 ; Discogs : 4.29 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46518278095183,"sku":"MFSL45UD1S2-053","price":195.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/products\/joni-mitchell-hejira-2lp-45-rpm-box-1step-supervinyl-audiosoundmusic.jpg?v=1719861281"},{"product_id":"marvin-gaye-lets-get-it-on-ultra-analog-half-speed-mastering","title":"Marvin Gaye – Let's Get It On (Ultra Analog, Half-speed Mastering, Number 02908)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRARITY - SEALED\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePiano, lead vocals, background vocals (except B4) - Marvin Gaye \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e\u003ca style=\"color: #ff8000;\" title=\"vinyl featuring Marvin Gaye\" href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/marvin-gaye\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Marvin Gaye]\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBackground vocals - The Originals (B4)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBass - James Jamerson, Wilton Felder\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBongos - Bobbye Hall Porter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBongos, Drums - Eddie \"Bongo\" Brown\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrums - Paul Humphrey, Uriel Jones\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGuitar - David T.

Always a sexually charged performer, Gaye's passions reach their boiling point on tracks like the magnificent title hit (a number one smash) and \"You Sure Love to Ball\"; silky and shimmering, the music is seductive in the most literal sense, its fluid grooves so perfectly designed for romance as to border on parody. With each performance laced with innuendo, each lyric a come-on, and each rhythm throbbing with lust, perhaps no other record has ever achieved the kind of sheer erotic force of Let's Get It On, and it remains the blueprint for all of the slow jams to follow decades later -- much copied, but never imitated.” AllMusic Review by Jason Ankeny\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\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.

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.

:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e“New York City native Sonny Rollins matriculated  into a competitive local jazz scene. Inspired by Louis Jordan to play saxophone, he became a high-profile tenor player by his early 20’s. His early sessions with Thelonious Monk, Miles Davis and The Modern Jazz Quartet put him in the spotlight. After moving to Chicago, he joined the Clifford Brown\/Max Roach Quintet, further enhancing his resume. Rollins’ innovative style featured playing bop in 3\/4 time with calypso accents and theme improvisation. By the late 1950’s Rollins had emerged as a trend-setting solo artist. On his iconic Way Out West, “Newk” created a sound in a trio format with a double bassist and drummer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCraft Recordings has released a lavish re-mastered 180-gram boxed set, Sonny Rollins – Go West! The Contemporary Records Albums. Included are the re-mastered studio albums, Way Out West, Sonny Rollins And The Contemporary Leaders and a third vinyl of alternative takes. This represents Rollins’ studio output for Lester Koenig’s West Coast label, Contemporary Records in 1957 and 1958. Way Out West kicks off with the loping “cowboy” tune, “I’m An Old Cowhand” by Johnny Mercer. With Ray Brown and Shelly Manne, this trio transforms a corny pop tune into a fresh jazz statement. Rollins’ glides into the fluid rhythm, injecting moments of improvisational gravitas. Brown’s walking bass also includes a lithe solo. Manne follows with one of his trademark polyrhythmic runs. Rollins returns to the first verse with smoothness as a counterpoint to Manne’s “clip-clop” percussion. In a definitive mood shift, the trio takes on Duke Ellington’s iconic “Solitude”. Rollins, in subtle vibrato mode embraces the essence of this ballad with Brown and Manne delicately surrounding the saxophone lead. Picking up the pace, an original (“Come, Gone”) feels like straight-ahead jazz with edgier tonality, improvisation and swing dynamics. The unprecedented trio structure is compelling. Side Two opens with another vintage Western number, “Wagon Wheels”. Rollins and the rhythm section distill the original melody, but Rollins adds a bluesy perspective. Again, the Manne percussion adds texture, and Brown is a formidable instrumental counterpoint. Shifting to late night vibe, “There’s No Greater Love” (a jazz standard by Isham Jones) emerges as an atmospheric piece with Rollins executing several deft runs. The title cut is a worthy finale. There is a finger-snapping tempo and Brown’s buoyant lines are graceful, driving the trio. Rollins’ phrasing and timing are flawless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe second vinyl (Sonny Rollins And The Contemporary Leaders) retains Manne, but has a different group (Barney Kessel\/guitar; Leroy Vinnegar\/double bass; Hampton Hawes\/piano and Victor Feldman\/vibraphone). The result is a more traditional approach. The initial cut, “I’ve Told Every Little Star” is a medium swing jam. This embrace of swing is the nucleus of this album. The addition of Kessel, Hawes and Feldman help to create a cohesive structure, and Vinnegar fits in perfectly. Another pop ditty, “Rock-A-Bye Your Baby With A Dixie Melody” is more up tempo. Rollins’ deft notation is festive and glows with warmth. Kernel and Hawes offer articulate low-keyed runs. “How High The Moon” showcases Rollins and the quintet adapting popular music to jazz metrics. Vinnegar and Kessel are a formidable duo and play together seamlessly. The side’s last number (“You”) is reinvented as raucous blues\/swing. Rollins’ is magnetic and Feldman percolates on the vibraphone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis session has more than its share of swagger. Rollins and company are propulsive on “I’ve Found A New Baby”. The muscular saxophone is the man focal point on this 3:50 gem. Hawes delivers an extended jaunty piano intro to “Alone Together”. Kessel follows with a nimble active solo. At approximately the 2:20 mark, Rollins enters and infuses crispness before Vinnegar scampers on double bass. All of the arrangements are meticulous. Rollins and Kessel create a lyrical counterpoint. Most people associate “In The Chapel In The Moonlight” with crooner Dean Martin. Here, it is a relaxed jazzy performance with  gossamer lower register on saxophone. Picking up the pace, “The Song Is You” returns to the swing genre. Like many jazz reincarnations, this Rodgers\/Hammerstein Broadway song was relatively obscure, but these types of covers altered the stylistic trajectory. Both Rollins and Hawes are explosive on this one, and Manne’s drum fills are inspiring. The final vinyl has six alternative takes from both albums. The listener can gain insight into the creative process with these interesting versions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Contemporary Records Albums vinyl boxed set (also available as a 3-CD set) is another great achievement for Craft Recordings. In addition to the 180-gram vinyls, there is an expanded booklet by historian Ashley Kahn, including a 2021 interview with Rollins. The re-mastered mix by Bernie Grundman is excellent.

Although the band initially formed out of the early '60s Northeast folk scene, by the time this set was issued they had relocated to the pastoral Northern California county of Marin. Blending affective pop\/rock melodies and lyrics with their good time jug band roots, the Youngbloods were instantly embraced by the already blossoming Bay Area music community. This effort contains some of the band's strongest material to date, building on the considerable momentum of their 1967 self-titled release and further enhanced by their remarkable instrumental capabilities. Young's contributions are particularly notable as he vacillates between the edgy and electric \"Darkness, Darkness\" to the light and earthy \"Sunlight\" and \"Ride the Wind,\" or the bouncy tales \"Smug\" and \"Beautiful.\" Banana honors his new surroundings with the gorgeous and catchy instrumental \"On Sir Francis Drake\" (named after a heavily traveled Bay Area motorway). On this cut the textural combination of electric piano and harpsichord provides a jazzy counterbalance to Young's propulsive basslines and Bauer's nimble drumming. The \"Rain Song (Don't Let the Rain Bring You Down)\" is left over from Corbitt's tenure and recalls the earlier Youngbloods' sound which was more akin to the Sopwith Camel or the Lovin' Spoonful than the trio's then-current folk-rock leanings. \"Trillium\" is a hidden gem of a jam that examines the band's remarkably strong improvisational interaction. \"Sham\" is perhaps the most straightforward rocker on the album and recalls Bay Area acts like the Sal Valentino-led Stoneground. The disc concludes with the sublime \"Ride the Wind\" which sports a very sophisticated and slightly Latin-flavored melody.” AllMusic Review by Lindsay Planer\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 : 4.08 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48057137693007,"sku":"IMXLP6051","price":65.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/files\/the-youngbloods-elephant-mountain-audiosoundmusic-1.jpg?v=1719862884"},{"product_id":"miles-davis-seven-steps-to-heaven-ultra-analog","title":"Miles Davis - Seven Steps to Heaven (Ultra analog, SuperVinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eORDER LIMITED TO ONE ITEM PER CUSTOMER\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrumpet – Miles Davis \u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/miles-davis\" title=\"vinyl featuring Miles Davis\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/miles-davis\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Miles Davis]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePiano – Herbie Hancock (A2, B1, B3) \u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" title=\"vinyl featuring Herbie Hancock\" href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/herbie-hancock\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/herbie-hancock\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Herbie Hancock]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePiano - Victor Feldman (A1, A3, B2)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrums – Anthony Williams (A2, B1, B3), Frank Butler (A1, A3, B2)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBass – Ron Carter \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e\u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" title=\"Vinyl featuring Ron Carter\" href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/ron-carter\" style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/ron-carter\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Ron Carter]\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTenor Saxophone – George Coleman \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/george-coleman\" title=\"vinyl featuring George Coleman\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/george-coleman\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring George Coleman]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\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 : 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 : 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 :  Record Technology Inc\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 at Columbia 30th Street Studio and Columbia Studios, Hollywood\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngineered by Fred Plaut\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduced by Teo Macero\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMastered by Krieg Wunderlich, assisted by Shawn R.

In early 1963, pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Jimmy Cobb left to form their own trio, and Davis was forced to form a new band, which included Memphis tenor player George Coleman and bassist Ron Carter. When Davis next entered the studio in Hollywood, he added local drummer Frank Butler and British studio ace Victor Feldman, who ultimately decided not to go on the road with Davis. It's easy to see why Davis liked Feldman, who contributed the dancing title tune and \"Joshua\" to the session. On three mellifluous standards -- particularly a cerebral \"Basin Street Blues\" and a broken-hearted \"I Fall in Love Too Easily\" -- the pianist plays with an elegant, refined touch, and the kind of rarefied voicings that suggest Ahmad Jamal. Davis responds with some of his most introspective, romantic ballad playing. When Davis returned to New York he finally succeeded in spiriting away a brilliantly gifted 17-year-old drummer from Jackie McLean: Tony Williams. On the title tune you can already hear the difference, as his crisp, driving cymbal beat and jittery, aggressive syncopations propel Davis into the upper reaches of his horn. On \"So Near, So Far\" the drummer combines with Carter and new pianist Herbie Hancock to expand on a light Afro-Cuban beat with a series of telepathic changes in tempo, texture, and dynamics. Meanwhile, Feldman's \"Joshua\" (with its overtones of \"So What\" and \"All Blues\") portends the kind of expressive variations on the basic 4\/4 pulse that would become the band's trademark, as Davis and Coleman ascend into bebop heaven.\" AllMusic Review by Rovi Staff\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMoFi SuperVinyl:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\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.

Only two years out of the Kenton band, the 33-year-old Manne proved to be a great catalyst, a master of coloristic effects, particularly with mallets, who was always swinging and lifting even the most cerebral harmonies onto his strong shoulders. With a sax section of Bob Cooper, Jimmy Giuffre, and Bud Shank alternating with Art Salt, Bob Enevoldsen on valve trombone, Marty Paich on piano, and Curtis Counce and Joe Mondragon alternating on bass, the star arrangers here produce a lot of intriguing sounds from such a limited core. Bill Russo borrows the Woody Herman\/Four Brothers' \"Early Autumn\" sax ensemble sound for his fascinating \"Gazelle,\" where the densely harmonized saxes float over Manne's brushes, as well as the swinging \"Sweets\" (dedicated to Harry \"Sweets\" Edison) and a cover version of \"You and the Night and the Music.\" Shorty Rogers' \"La Mucura\" exchanges an Afro-Cuban element with straight-ahead cool, with Manne switching seamlessly from one idiom to another, and he brings a swirl of saxes gradually into focus on \"Afrodesia.\" Rogers' \"Mallets\" naturally showcases Manne's signature capabilities with the mallets on tom-toms. Paich and Giuffre contribute one arrangement each; Paich's treatment of \"You're My Thrill\" contains a characteristic four-on-the-floor slice of cool, while Giuffre's \"Fugue\" is an abstract, basically atonal tangle of independent voices. Members of the East Coast jazz establishment basically ignored or pooh-poohed records like these -- and judging from the ill-informed comments on the Ken Burns Jazz series that this was, in effect, effete white music produced to sell records (yeah, right), they still do.

A coolly textured and immaculately produced collection of sophisticated jazz-rock, Aja has none of the overt cynicism or self-consciously challenging music that distinguished previous Steely Dan records. Instead, it's a measured and textured album, filled with subtle melodies and accomplished, jazzy solos that blend easily into the lush instrumental backdrops. But Aja isn't just about texture, since Becker and Fagen's songs are their most complex and musically rich set of songs -- even the simplest song, the sunny pop of \"Peg,\" has layers of jazzy vocal harmonies. In fact, Steely Dan ignores rock on Aja, preferring to fuse cool jazz, blues, and pop together in a seamless, seductive fashion. It's complex music delivered with ease, and although the duo's preoccupation with clean sound and self-consciously sophisticated arrangements would eventually lead to a dead end, Aja is a shining example of jazz-rock at its finest. \" AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings \u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eAllMusic : 4.5 \/ 5 ;

Its follow-up, Gaucho, while sonically similar, is its polar opposite: a precise and studied record, where all of the seams show. Gaucho essentially replicates the smooth jazz-pop of Aja, but with none of that record's dark, seductive romance or elegant aura. Instead, it's meticulous and exacting; each performance has been rehearsed so many times that it no longer has any emotional resonance. Furthermore, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen's songs are generally labored, only occasionally reaching their past heights, like on the suave \"Babylon Sisters,\" \"Time Out of Mind,\" and \"Hey Nineteen.\" Still, those three songs are barely enough to make the remainder of the album's glossy, meandering fusion worthwhile.” AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine.\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 : 4.68 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48982172827983,"sku":"CAPP 140 SA","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/files\/steely-dan-gaucho-hybrid-sacd-audiosoundmusic.png?v=1719864322"},{"product_id":"steely-dan-katy-lied-2lp-box-set-45rpm-uhqr-200g-clear-vinyl-copy","title":"Steely Dan -

With this record, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen began relying solely on studio musicians, which is evident from the immaculate sound of the album. Usually, such a studied recording method would drain the life out of each song, but that's not the case with Katy Lied, which actually benefits from the duo's perfectionist tendencies. Each song is given a glossy sheen, one that accentuates not only the stronger pop hooks, but also the precise technical skill of the professional musicians drafted to play the solos. Essentially, Katy Lied is a smoother version of Pretzel Logic, featuring the same cross-section of jazz-pop and blues-rock. The lack of innovations doesn't hurt the record, since the songs are uniformly brilliant. Less overtly cynical than previous Dan albums, the album still has its share of lyrical stingers, but what's really notable are the melodies, from the seductive jazzy soul of \"Doctor Wu\" and the lazy blues of \"Chain Lightning\" to the terse \"Black Friday\" and mock calypso of \"Everyone's Gone to the Movies.\" It's another excellent record in one of the most distinguished rock \u0026amp; roll catalogs of the '70s.” AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\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 : 3.8 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48990877450575,"sku":"CAPP 137 SA","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/files\/steely-dan-katy-lied-hybrid-sacd-audiosoundmusic.jpg?v=1719864345"},{"product_id":"sonny-rollins-and-the-contemporary-leaders-2lp-45rpm-unsealed-number-0936","title":"Sonny Rollins And The Contemporary Leaders (2LP, 45RPM, unsealed, Number 0936)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"\u003eRARITY - Unsealed (mint conditions)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTenor Saxophone – Sonny Rollins \u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" title=\"Vinyl featuring Sonny Rollins\" href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/sonny-rollins\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/sonny-rollins\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Sonny Rollins]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrums – Shelly Manne \u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" title=\"Vinyl featuring shelly manne\" href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/shelly-manne\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/shelly-manne\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Shelly Manne]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eBass – Leroy Vinnegar\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eGuitar – Barney Kessel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003ePiano – Hampton Hawes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eVibraphone – Victor Feldman (B2)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eWritten by Oscar Hammerstein II \u0026amp; Jerome Kern (A1, D2), Sam M.

In early 1963, pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Jimmy Cobb left to form their own trio, and Davis was forced to form a new band, which included Memphis tenor player George Coleman and bassist Ron Carter. When Davis next entered the studio in Hollywood, he added local drummer Frank Butler and British studio ace Victor Feldman, who ultimately decided not to go on the road with Davis. It's easy to see why Davis liked Feldman, who contributed the dancing title tune and \"Joshua\" to the session. On three mellifluous standards -- particularly a cerebral \"Basin Street Blues\" and a broken-hearted \"I Fall in Love Too Easily\" -- the pianist plays with an elegant, refined touch, and the kind of rarefied voicings that suggest Ahmad Jamal. Davis responds with some of his most introspective, romantic ballad playing. When Davis returned to New York he finally succeeded in spiriting away a brilliantly gifted 17-year-old drummer from Jackie McLean: Tony Williams. On the title tune you can already hear the difference, as his crisp, driving cymbal beat and jittery, aggressive syncopations propel Davis into the upper reaches of his horn. On \"So Near, So Far\" the drummer combines with Carter and new pianist Herbie Hancock to expand on a light Afro-Cuban beat with a series of telepathic changes in tempo, texture, and dynamics. Meanwhile, Feldman's \"Joshua\" (with its overtones of \"So What\" and \"All Blues\") portends the kind of expressive variations on the basic 4\/4 pulse that would become the band's trademark, as Davis and Coleman ascend into bebop heaven.\" AllMusic Review by Rovi Staff\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eUltra High-Resolution (UHR)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e is a dual-layer hybrid SACD recorded with Direct Stream Digital Technology at a sampling rate of 11.2 MHZ and a frequency response of DC to 100KHz.

Stampede's virtue was its musicianship, which, in addition to new member Baxter, was also showcased in the guises of some impressive guests. The Doobie Brothers' rootsiest album to date, Stampede was virtuoso soulful countrified rock of a gritty nature, crossing over into blues as well as reaching back to a raw, traditional rock \u0026amp; roll sound that wouldn't have sounded too out of place 20 years earlier. That was the opener, the searing \"Sweet Maxine,\" which just might've made a good single with an edit or two to bring it down to three and a half minutes; the record gets better with the bouncing \"Neal's Fandango,\" which is highlighted by lyrical as well as instrumental acrobatics on the verses and a delicious guitar and piano break. \"Texas Lullaby\" is one of the prettiest pieces of country rock (though it's a little more \"Western rock\") to come out of the genre since the Byrds and the Beau Brummels had treaded into it eight years earlier, and gets a magnificently soulful performance from Tom Johnston. And speaking of soul, Curtis Mayfield is the arranger on Johnston's hard-driving \"Music Man.\" The group strips down to its acoustic basics for \"Slat Key Soquel Rag,\" which could have been an outtake from the group's self-titled debut album; Maria Muldaur is the guest vocalist on \"I Cheat the Hangman,\" representing Patrick Simmons' songwriting at its most ethereal. Baxter's \"Précis\" was the group's nod to classical and Spanish guitar technique, and \"Rainy Day Crossroad Blues\" provides guest artist Ry Cooder with a gorgeous canvas on which to paint his slide guitar licks. And the album lands with its feet firmly in 1970s-style roots rock on \"I've Been Workin' on You\" and \"Double Dealin' Four Flusher.\"\" \u003cspan\u003eAllMusic Review by Bruce Eder\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\" lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eUltra High-Resolution (UHR)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\" lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is a dual-layer hybrid SACD recorded with Direct Stream Digital Technology at a sampling rate of 11.2 MHZ and a frequency response of DC to 100KHz.

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 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eAllMusic : 2 \/ 5 ; Discogs : 4.5 \/ 5 \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49925015568719,"sku":"MFSL 1-147","price":99.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/files\/LeeRitenour-CaptainFingers.jpg?v=1729542148"},{"product_id":"sonny-rollins-and-the-contemporary-leaders","title":"Sonny Rollins And The Contemporary Leaders","description":"\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTenor Saxophone – Sonny Rollins \u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/sonny-rollins\" title=\"Vinyl featuring Sonny Rollins\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/sonny-rollins\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Sonny Rollins]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrums – Shelly Manne \u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/shelly-manne\" title=\"Vinyl featuring shelly manne\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/shelly-manne\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"color: #ff8000;\" data-mce-style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e[click here to see more vinyl featuring Shelly Manne]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"\u003eBass – Leroy Vinnegar\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"\u003eGuitar – Barney Kessel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"\u003ePiano – Hampton Hawes \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Aptos',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: Aptos; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"\u003e(except A3)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"\u003eVibraphone – Victor Feldman (B1)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eWritten by Oscar Hammerstein II (A1, B4), Jerome Kern (A1, B4), Sam M.

:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Musically, Can’t Buy A Thrill feels more three-dimensional on this UHQR edition than on other versions I’ve heard. Overall, the sound is super-clear and crisp, but ultimately presents the music more warmly than the standard 180g 1LP edition does. When you compare them side by side, you start noticing the differences between the UHQR and the standard edition — the sizzling cymbals aren’t quite as sizzly on the standard version, for one thing, and, comparatively, the vocals take on a bit of that raw edge around them. Plus, the congas feel less natural-sounding on the standard edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(…) Everything about this edition is super deluxe. The whole consumer experience is sumptuous, down to the outer album box’s wooden-spined, drawer style design, loosely reminiscent of certain deluxe edition releases from the 1950s by labels such as Angel Records and Everest Records — albeit much more striking with this edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 200g clear vinyl has that heft of a vintage record from the 1950s and\/or early-1960s — and, frankly, it seems extra-substantial to me. Is it because these LPs were pressed in such limited quantity by hand? If I can get extra-obsessive about it for a moment, this vinyl just feels nice in my hands, with silky smooth curves crafted with a sort of handmade precision more akin to something you might pick up from a skilled blacksmith or a woodworker, as opposed to churned out of a machine press.” Mark Smotroff, AnalogPlanet, Nov 15, 2022\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Walter Becker and Donald Fagen were remarkable craftsmen from the start, as Steely Dan's debut, Can't Buy a Thrill, illustrates. Each song is tightly constructed, with interlocking chords and gracefully interwoven melodies, buoyed by clever, cryptic lyrics. All of these are hallmarks of Steely Dan's signature sound, but what is most remarkable about the record is the way it differs from their later albums. Of course, one of the most notable differences is the presence of vocalist David Palmer, a professional blue-eyed soul vocalist who oversings the handful of tracks where he takes the lead. Palmer's very presence signals the one major flaw with the album -- in an attempt to appeal to a wide audience, Becker and Fagen tempered their wildest impulses with mainstream pop techniques. Consequently, there are very few of the jazz flourishes that came to distinguish their albums -- the breakthrough single, \"Do It Again,\" does work an impressively tight Latin jazz beat, and \"Reelin' in the Years\" has jazzy guitar solos and harmonies -- and the production is overly polished, conforming to all the conventions of early-'70s radio. Of course, that gives these decidedly twisted songs a subversive edge, but compositionally, these aren't as innovative as their later work.

it sounded deceptively easy. Its follow-up, Gaucho, while sonically similar, is its polar opposite: a precise and studied record, where all of the seams show. Gaucho essentially replicates the smooth jazz-pop of Aja, but with none of that record's dark, seductive romance or elegant aura. Instead, it's meticulous and exacting; each performance has been rehearsed so many times that it no longer has any emotional resonance. Furthermore, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen's songs are generally labored, only occasionally reaching their past heights, like on the suave \"Babylon Sisters,\" \"Time Out of Mind,\" and \"Hey Nineteen.\" Still, those three songs are barely enough to make the remainder of the album's glossy, meandering fusion worthwhile.” AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings\u003c\/strong\u003e :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiscogs : 4.76 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55281496424783,"sku":"UIJY-9038","price":295.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/files\/Captured_ecran2025-06-08a20.17.48.png?v=1749406724"},{"product_id":"steely-dan-aja-xx","title":"Steely Dan -

Some vestiges of her old style remain here; \"Song for Sharon\" utilizes the static, pithy vocal harmonies from Ladies of the Canyon's \"Woodstock,\" \"Refuge of the Roads\" features woodwind touches reminiscent of those in \"Barangrill\" from For the Roses, and \"Coyote\" is a fast guitar-strummed number that has precedents as far back as Clouds' \"Chelsea Morning.\" But by and large, this release is the most overtly jazz-oriented of her career up to this point -- hip and cool, but never smug or icy. \"Blue Motel Room\" in particular is a prototypic slow jazz-club combo number, appropriately smooth, smoky, and languorous. \"Coyote,\" \"Black Crow,\" and the title track are by contrast energetically restless fast-tempo selections. The rest of the songs here cleverly explore variants on mid- to slow-tempo approaches. None of these cuts are traditionally tuneful in the manner of Mitchell's older folk efforts; the effect here is one of subtle rolls and ridges on a green meadow rather than the outgoing beauty of a flower garden. Mitchell's verses, many concerned with character portraits, are among the most polished of her career; the most striking of these studies are that of the decrepit Delta crooner of \"Furry Sings the Blues\" and the ambivalent speaker of \"Song to Sharon,\" who has difficulty choosing between commitment and freedom. Arrangements are sparse, yet surprisingly varied, the most striking of which is the kaleidoscopically pointillistic one used on \"Amelia.\" Performances are excellent, with special kudos reserved for Jaco Pastorius' melodic bass playing on \"Refuge of the Roads\" and the title cut.

from the smooth jazz-pop of Court and Spark to the radical Hissing of Summer Lawns, an adventurous work that remains among her most difficult records. After opening with the graceful \"In France They Kiss on Main Street,\" the album veers sharply into \"The Jungle Line,\" an odd, Moog-driven piece backed by the rhythms of the warrior drums of Burundi -- a move into multiculturalism that beat the likes of Paul Simon, Peter Gabriel, and Sting to the punch by a decade.

Always a sexually charged performer, Gaye's passions reach their boiling point on tracks like the magnificent title hit (a number one smash) and \"You Sure Love to Ball\"; silky and shimmering, the music is seductive in the most literal sense, its fluid grooves so perfectly designed for romance as to border on parody. With each performance laced with innuendo, each lyric a come-on, and each rhythm throbbing with lust, perhaps no other record has ever achieved the kind of sheer erotic force of Let's Get It On, and it remains the blueprint for all of the slow jams to follow decades later -- much copied, but never imitated.” AllMusic Review by Jason Ankeny\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 : 4.55 \/ 5\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AudioSoundMusic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59105288225103,"sku":"AMOT 47752","price":179.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/3811\/7783\/files\/Marvin-Gaye-Let_s-Get-It-On-1.webp?v=1792873925"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.audiosoundmusic.com\/collections\/victor-feldman.oembed","provider":"AudioSoundMusic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
