Reviews:
“Following a half-decade of collaborations with the ornate Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty decided it was time to strip things back for 1994's Wildflowers. He swapped Lynne for Rick Rubin, the Def Jam founder who started cultivating a production career outside of hip-hop and metal in the early 1990s, then hunkered down with a team of musicians anchored by his longtime lieutenants Mike Campbell and Benmont Tench. Together, they achieved a sound that was lean and sinewy, fulfilling the goal of getting Petty back to the basics, but the singer/songwriter wrote too much material for a single album. After toying with the idea of releasing a double CD, Petty whittled Wildflowers down to a single disc that ran the length of a double album, a considerable indulgence for a rocker who usually restrained himself to a tight 40 minutes (or, on the case of the first two Heartbreakers albums, a quick half hour). The extra space allows Petty to stretch out and breathe, to spend as much time strumming sun-kissed folk tunes as he does rambling through ramshackle rockers and heavy-footed blues. The Heartbreakers specialized in clean, efficient rock & roll, and while this solo project echoes their sound -- how could it not with Campbell and Tench aboard -- Wildflowers is distinguished by its casual gait. Whether it's the highway anthem "You Wreck Me" or the stoner shrug of "You Don't Know How It Feels," the performances benefit from this space to breathe, while the larger canvass helps steer attention to the character sketch of "To Find a Friend," the sardonic wit of "It's Good to Be King," and the bittersweet undercurrent of "Crawling Back to You." Other, earlier albums provide a greater rock & roll wallop, but thanks to its extra space, Wildflowers captures the full range of Tom Petty as a singer, songwriter, and rocker.” AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
One Step. Instead of utilizing the industry-standard three-step lacquer process, one-step plating uses only one step, bypassing two processes of generational loss. One-step plating skip the regular father-mother process, going right to a single convert and then pressing. Though this dramatically increases mastering and production costs, it also assures each run is more consistent from disc to disc, with less noise, clearer details and deeper bass. Reducing production complexity to just a single "convert" disc between the lacquer and the press greatly improves groove integrity, diminishes non-fill anomalies and increases signal integrity from the master tape to your system.
