This truly is a no-expenses-spared project, resulting in the ultimate version of this title. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; In what some consider his last great album prior to his tragic passing, Nat & quot;King & quot; Cole approached the dramatic dark side of love in the spirit of Sinatra's saloon songs to timeless, haunting effect with the album Where Did Everyone Go? The distinctive orchestrations of Gordon Jenkins for strings accompany the intimately expressive and supremely musical voice of the incomparable Nat & quot;King & quot; Cole in such classic songs as & quot;Someone To Tell It To, & quot; & quot;I Keep Going Back To Joe's, & quot; & quot;Spring Is Here, & quot; & quot;The End Of A Love Affair & quot; and other reflections of one who had and now has not. Nat & quot;King & quot; Cole and arranger Gordon Jenkins followed their hit albums Love Is The Thing and The Very Thought Of You with this striking shift toward the dramatic. The result again stands among its era's finest, most stylistically defining recordings of popular music and still retains its grand sense of tragedy and beauty. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Using the original first generation 3-track session tapes from Capitol's vaults and all-analogue systems including custom headstacks, 3-track preview heads, console and monitoring chain installed at AcousTech specially for these releases, mastering engineers Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman realize the stunning beauty of these recordings. Two bonus tracks recorded for the album, & quot;A Farewell to Arms & quot; and & quot;Happy New Year, & quot; are included in this double 45-RPM 180-gram album set for their first release in original production quality. Included with this deluxe reissue is a striking six-panel booklet complete with rare photos, a 3,200-word essay by Chris Hall on the album and a 1,200-word essay by Michael Fremer about the remastering process. This truly is a no-expenses-spared project, resulting in the ultimate version of this title and a historic reissue. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Originally released in 1963. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;[P]erfect sound quality, breathtaking arrangements, tasteful material and that voice. Aaah! That voice! It delivered so much, and was so inimitable that Cole could use it to make any song his own... Cole creates the necessary mood with such completeness that you feel an ache in nearly every note. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Ken Kessler, Hi-Fi News, Sound Quality Rating: 95% & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Features: & lt;br & gt; 180g 45rpm Double Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman at Acoustech & lt;br & gt; Includes six-panel booklet with rare photos and essays by Chris Hall and Michael Fremer & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Talk about up to audiophile standards! The immediacy, the dynamics - slam and delicacy alike - are just so startlingly real. There's nothing lost. It's positively lifelike. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Cutting engineer Kevin Gray, using Blue Heaven's Neumann VMS 70 lathe with an Ortofon cutter head and amplifiers, and recording engineer Katsu Naito have made available for your playback the closest thing possible to a live, in-person performance. With direct-to-disc recording, the signal from the microphone is transmitted directly to the cutter head, which then cuts the grooves into a raw lacquer. There's no middleman. No tape. No tape hiss. No distortion or other artifacts inherent in any other type of recording. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; And the music? It's killer! The session was recorded the weekend of the 12th annual Blues Masters at the Crossroads in October 2009. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Handy was born and raised as the oldest of seven children in St. Martinville, Louisiana, the parish seat of St. Martin Parish and right on the Bayou Teche. It's a rural town about 15 miles southeast of Lafayette and is generally considered the heart of the Creole and Cajun melting pot that makes this specific sub-region unique to anywhere else in the world. It's from right here that so much of the culture - the food, music, swamp life - that people associate with Louisiana comes. Like with many people from St. Martinville, Handy's heritage is Creole, meaning it's tangled. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Handy's earliest musical inspiration came from his father, who had an old accordion that he toyed with as nothing more than a pastime, and some cousins who were & quot;fooling around & quot; with music. & quot;I saw that, and I wanted to take it and be better, & quot; Handy says. & quot;The first thing I picked up was a guitar. And I took it from there. & quot; His first professional gig came on bass in a cousin's band. From there it was back to guitar and eventually accordion as a bandleader. In between, he played in the bands of Rockin' Dopsie for many years as well as in the very first incarnation of Buckwheat Zydeco just after Buckwheat had left Clifton Chenier. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; While he'd recorded previously as a bandleader, Handy's 2008 APO Records release Zydeco Feeling marked his first widely distributed release in 25 years. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Major Handy is one of Zydecos younger, more active performers, born in the heart of the Louisiana region that gave birth to the sound, and a veteran who played with Rockin Dopsie. Chad Kassems crew has captured the swing and the feel of the genre, while showcasing an instrument thats key to Zydeco but hardly an audiophile staple: the accordion. This six-track set is as undiluted as it gets, and it just might make you a convert. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Ken Kessler, Hi-Fi News, Sound Quality Rating: 87% & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Direct To Disc (D2D) & lt;br & gt; 180g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Wild Child Butler Sho' 'Nuff 180g 45rpm 2LP (Vinyl)
This item not eligible for any further discount offers!Standing on the stage like a tall barrel of beer, the stout and sturdy Wild Child Butler tapped his right foot, swung his hips and authoritatively snapped his fingers. Some musicians keep time subtly. Wild Child does it more obviously than a metronome. With everything, in fact, Wild Child shows his true colors without prompt. That same cold, October night, he alternated between blowing a furious blues harp and singing with such emotion that his face would give the meaning of each song to even the deaf. And he was wearing a green suit and looking good, without doubt - a sign of how unique this man is. As traditional as the blues on this album are, theres no mistaking a Wild Child tune. They cant be played this way by anyone else - not so boisterous, not so Wild Child. Perhaps its the syncopation. The way Wild Child punches certain syllables with either his harp or voice. His blues sometimes sound angry and raw, other times soft and country-polished. "Theyve always called mine the swamp sound," Wild Child said. "Its not too fast and not too slow. They calls it snapping blues. Everything is snappy. I was told from Willie Dixon that I had a way-out strange voice. He said he could hear it between Howlin Wolf and Lightnin Hopkins. He said aint nothing been around like that." Heres a man whose been heavily praised by Dixon, Muddy Waters, Howlin Wolf and Jimmy Rogers just to name a few; a man who those blues legends were proud to accompany. Hes joined by drummer Sam Lay, one of Wild Childs old running mates, and guitarist Jimmy D. Lane, the son of Rogers, one of Wild Childs closest friends. Bob Stroger, also from the old school, plays bass, and APO heavyweight Jimmie Lee Robinson sits in on acoustic guitar on "You Had Quit Me." Wild Child said the session brought back memories of his tours with Rogers and Lay. Just substitute Jimmy's. "Its Little Jimmy and Big Jimmy," Wild Child said of Rogers and his son Lane. "His father was Big Jimmy. The son is a big man, but I call him Little Jimmy. That boy kind of came up under me. I think hes scared Im gonna give him a spanking if he do wrong." This release offers a fine mix of Wild Childs down-home, acoustic sound, his slow, muscular blues and his up-tempo shuffle or "snapping blues." As Wild Child himself said, "If you cant dig these blues, you got a hole in your soul. "Talkin bout sho nuff." Selections: Side One: Open Up Baby, You Had To Quit Me; Side Two: I Got To Go (Sweet Daddy-O), Can You Use A Man Like Me?; Side Three: Moaning Morning, Slippin' In, Funky Things; Side Four: It's All Over, I Changed.

The session was recorded the weekend of the 12th annual Blues Masters at the Crossroads in October 2009. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Singer Howard Tate cracked the R & amp;B Top 20 three times in the late 1960s, left music and endured hardship and anonymity for nearly 30 years and beginning in the early 2000s returned to his rightful place as one of America's most revered soul performers. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; In the mid-'60s, Garnet Mimms urged producer Jerry Ragovoy to check out Tate, and from 1966 to 1969 Tate and Ragovoy recorded about 10 singles, the first for the Utopia label, the rest for Verve. & quot;Ain't Nobody Home & quot; (1966), & quot;Look At Granny Run Run & quot; (1966) and & quot;Stop & quot; (1967), all written or co-written by Ragovoy, each charted R & amp;B Top 20. But to rock audiences, Tate was best known as the original performer of & quot;Get It While You Can, & quot; which became one of Janis Joplin's signature tunes. Tate's debut album, Get It While You Can, was released in 1966 to tremendous acclaim. Rolling Stone called the album & quot;a spectacular showcase of suave, muscular good-powered singing, heavily influenced by Sam Cooke, with a joyous, shrieking falsetto that became Tate's trademark. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Music luminaries have recognized and celebrated Tate's trademark voice throughout the years, with Elvis Costello calling him & quot;the missing link between Jackie Wilson and Al Green. & quot; Among the well-known musicians that have covered songs originally recorded by Tate are Joplin ( & quot;Get It While You Can & quot;), Jimi Hendrix ( & quot;Stop & quot;), Hugh Masekela ( & quot;Stop & quot;), B.B. King ( & quot;Ain't Nobody Home & quot;), Ry Cooder ( & quot;Look At Granny Run Run & quot;) and Grand Funk Railroad ( & quot;Look At Granny Run Run & quot;). & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Chad Kassems efforts have resulted in a delicious live session... Tate reaches down to the soles of his shoes to deliver exquisite takes of two trademark songs from his classic Verve LP, Look At Granny Run Run and Aint Nobody Home, plus four others. The backing band is note-perfect for the session, the sound bordering on the cavernous. Best of all, over 40 years after his debut, the voice is intact. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Ken Kessler, Hi-Fi News, Sound Quality Rating: 95% & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Direct To Disc (D2D) & lt;br & gt; 180g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Talk about up to audiophile standards! The immediacy, the dynamics - slam and delicacy alike - are just so startlingly real. There's nothing lost. It's positively lifelike. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Roy Head is a kick ass, redneck, rock 'n' roll legend and a real bluesman. He achieved everlasting fame with his gigantic 1965 hit, & quot;Treat Her Right, & quot; which rocketed to No. 2 on both the pop and R & amp;B charts, falling behind only the Beatles' & quot;Yesterday. & quot; & quot;Treat Her Right & quot; produced by the legendary Huey Meaux and released on Don Robey's Back Beat label is estimated to have sold more than four million copies and has been covered by the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Bon Jovi, Jerry Lee Lewis and Jimmy Page. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Born in 1943 in Three Rivers, Texas, Head and his band of buddies, billing themselves as Roy Head and The Traits, scored their first record deal in 1958 with TNT Music in San Antonio while still in high school. The group released five records on TNT between 1958 and 1961. They had several regional hits before & quot;Treat Her Right, & quot; and Head became a talked-about entertainer with dance moves so wild and fancy he began drawing comparisons to James Brown. And he still brings it, gyrating like a man half his age and working his microphone like a yo-yo. Although Head was a white singer, he'd recorded a song in an R & amp;B style and thus became part of the mid-'60s blue-eyed soul movement that also included groups such as the Righteous Brothers and the Boxtops. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; After & quot;Treat Her Right, & quot; Head scored two more Top 40 hits with & quot;Just A Little Bit & quot; and & quot;Apple Of My Eye. & quot; He also landed a number of hits on the country charts between 1974 and 1985. Roy Head and the Traits were induced into the Rockabilly Hall of Fame in 2007. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; From 2011 Direct To Disc Sessions & lt;br & gt; 200g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Cut by Kevin Gray & lt;br & gt; Pressed at Quality Record Pressings & lt;br & gt; Recorded at Blue Heaven Studios & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

& lt;p & gt;What praises haven't been lauded the immortal singing talent of the late, great Patsy Cline? She died at the height of her career, at age 30, with two other stars of the Grand Ole Opry, and her manager, in a private plane crash near Camden, Tennessee,
on the group's return to Nashville from Kansas City. Before that ill-fated flight, though, she left a musical legacy as one of the most influential and successful female vocalists of the 20th Century. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;In the late 1950s and the '60s, country music was essentially a singles medium. This album, first released in 1967, collects a dozen of Patsy's biggest hits - all of them from the country singles market - including & quot;Walkin' After Midnight & quot;, & quot;Sweet Dreams
(Of You) & quot;, & quot;Crazy & quot; and & quot;I Fall To Pieces & quot;. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Producer Owen Bradley surrounds Cline's full-throated, emotionally charged vocals with lush, sophisticated arrangements that set the standard for Nashville's & quot;countrypolitan & quot; sound. And trust us, on this 200-gram QRP pressing, mastered by Sterling Sound,
Cline's seductive vocals have never sounded clearer or richer. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;And the packaging on this release is as deluxe as the audio. Analogue Productions has reissued this classic LP in a new deluxe tip-on gatefold jacket. Inside you'll enjoy a spread of vivid color studio publicity shots of Patsy, courtesy of the Universal
Music Archives. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Cline's life and career has been the subject of numerous books, movies, documentaries, articles and stage plays. She has sold millions of albums through the past 50 years, giving her an iconic fan status, similar to that of country artists such as Johnny
Cash and Dolly Parton. In 1992, the U.S. Postal Service honored her, along with Hank Williams, on a U.S. postage stamp. And in 1995 she was honored with a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. Cline was also honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of
Fame in 1999. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Before Shania Twain found a new (though not necessarily improved) way to combine country and pop in the 1990s, this was the top-selling country album of all time by a female artist. & lt;/p & gt;

Everything from the silent 200g pressing to the 'tip-on' (paper on cardboard) gatefold jacket and the center portfolio of great full color Patsy shots screams HIGH QUALITY. This reissue, from the AAA production, to the pressing and packaging quality epitomizes
the purpose of the current return to vinyl.

He doesnt always paint the prettiest pictures or offer a gleaming white smile, but he does reach down deep to remind us of our own humanity. Capps descends from the celebrated American Southern literary tradition and his songs deal with the South and the idiosyncrasies of its people, landscapes and tempos. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; His backing band, The Lost Cause Minstrels, comprises some of the finest players on todays Gulf Coast music scene, including Corky Hughes on guitar, Chris Spies on keys, Christian Grizzard on bass and John Milham on drums. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;...Grayson Capps is alive and well and slowly building one of the most phenomenal songbooks in America today. If ever there were a cat primed to pick up where Lowell George and John Prine have left off, its Capps. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; Jambase & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; From 2010 Direct To Disc Sessions & lt;br & gt; 200g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Cut by Kevin Gray & lt;br & gt; Engineered by Katsu Naito & lt;br & gt; Pressed at Quality Record Pressings & lt;br & gt; Recorded at Blue Heaven Studios & lt;br & gt; Companion disc to APLPD2D018 & amp; APLPLD2D019 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Many of the top musicians from the Sacred Steel gospel tradition arrived in town for the big gig, and here we have some of the finest: Calvin Cooke and Aubrey Ghent, backed by the Campbell Brothers. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Calvin is a surprising powerhouse with a cherubic smile. You'd never guess how much music he can make with his three-legged lap steel, and his unique tuning helps identify his sound immediately, among the dozens of steel players who began in the House of God church. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Aubrey takes over on the flip side. His hands fly and he literally makes his lap steel speak. Aubrey's sweet sound and serious expression mask his subtly building tempo and rising sound. He's a minister with a lineage that virtually demands he be a top notch player. His uncle and father were slide kings and thankfully, he has a son who is rumored to be the next generation superstar. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; From 2012 Direct To Disc Sessions & lt;br & gt; Vinyl LP & lt;br & gt; Cut by Kevin Gray & lt;br & gt; Pressed at Quality Record Pressings & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side One: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Leroy Jody Pierson Leroy Jody Pierson 180g D2D LP (Vinyl)
& lt;b & gt;This item not eligible for any further discount offers! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt;Leroy is really one of the very best bluesmen Ive ever played with, and Ive played with most of the greats, guys like Walter Davis, Robert Nighthawk, Sonny Boy Williamson, Robert Johnson and Roosevelt Sykes. Leroy is up there with those greats. Henry Townsend & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; With an endorsement like that from one of blues most historic figures, its a major wonder that Leroy Jodie Pierson isnt a star himself. Instead, he rarely takes his craft far from his St. Louis home. Once you hear this direct-to-disc you might be inspired to join a crusade to change that. Leroy Jodie Pierson is that good, and this recording is as close as you can possibly get to having him over for a visit. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; There was magic in the sanctuary of Blue Heaven Studios that October 2004 Saturday afternoon. On the altarsat Leroy, cross-legged and cradling his National ResoLectric steel guitar with a glass slide encasing his left pinky finger and caressing the strings, while his right fingers aggressively plucked and strummed. The result is a dramatic yet buttery-smooth take offive killer blues numbers and one gospel tune. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Direct To Disc (D2D) & lt;br & gt; 180g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Jimmie Lee Robinson All My Life 200g 45rpm 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;200g 45rpm Vinyl Double LP Pressed at Quality Record Pressings! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;This item not eligible for any further discount offers! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; If you tire easily of the overdone, overproduced contemporary blues-the garbage that sounds like plastic instruments being played in a tin box-and if you've ever wondered why that stuff is even filed under blues, than you're like Jimmie Lee Robinson. To Jimmie Lee, the blues are more than just fast notes and wild guitar solos. They are about feelings very personal and deep. They punch at emotions. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; With All My Life, his second APO Records release, Jimmie Lee is aiming for goose bumps and tears. And if you've got appreciation for acoustic, front porch blues, you'll have a tough time escaping his spell. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; No doubt Jimmie Lee Robinson offers a delightful taste of traditional blues. His work through the years with such stalwarts as Little Walter, Howlin' Wolf, Freddie King, Elmore James and Jimmy Reed have made their impressions on the man called The Lonely Traveler just as he has been credited with inspiring them. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; On All My Life you'll hear standby classics like a haunting, slowed-down version of Muddy Waters' Forty Days and Forty Nights with eerie harmonica accompaniment by Madison Slim. And Jimmie Lee even covers a non-blues favorite with What a Wonderful World. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; All My Life is also packed with Jimmie Lee originals like the title track, which was once covered by John Mayall, where Jimmie Lee pleads with the woman of his dreams to return all the respect and love he's paid to her. That track is also a perfect showcase for the classic Jimmie Lee growling vocals and the spurs jangling from his boots as the only percussion. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Unlike his first APO release, Remember Me, an almost entirely-solo effort, Jimmie Lee is joined on most of the All My Life tracks by APO artist and noted-guitarist Jimmy D. Lane and journeyman harp player Madison Slim, whose knack for acoustic blues is highlighted on this release. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 45rpm Vinyl & lt;br & gt; 200g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Pressed at Quality Record Pressings & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Jimmy D. Lane Long Gone180g LP (Vinyl)
This item not eligible for any further discount offers!The debut album by the sensational new rock/blues, guitarist/singer-songwriter Jimmy D. Lane. While the listener will hear echoes of Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan in Jimmy's playing, he is his own man, a fact recognized recently by Eric Clapton when, after playing together with Jimmy on a forthcoming tribute album to Jimmy's father, blues legend Jimmy Rogers, Clapton proclaimed Jimmy Lane an "incredible guitarist." Indeed, the strongest influence on Jimmy's musical development has been his father. Long Gone features Jimmy Lane with bassist Freddie Crawford (also a verteran member of Jimmy Rogers band and Jimmy Lane's regular group) and legendary drummer Jim Keltner, who has performed and/or recorded with everyone from John Lennon and Bob Dylan to the Rolling Stones and Eric Clapton. The group is joined on one number by producer/guitarist John Koenig. Jimmy Lane's repertoire on Long Gone is made up of his own originals and covers by blues and rock greats including Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Rogers, John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters, and Albert King. Selections: 1. Hear My Train Comin'2. Obession Babies3. Long Gone4. I Shall Be Released5. Shake Shiver Ache6. Rollin' Stone7. Whiskey8. Boom Boom9. White Tears10. Oh What A Feelin'11. California12.

Mono Mix Created Under Brian Wilson's Supervision! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio from the Original Master Tapes or Best Sources Available! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; To meet the standards of Analogue Productions, their Beach Boys album reissues had a mission to achieve: Present the band's music the way that Brian Wilson famed co-founder, songwriter and arranger intended. Mono mixes created under Wilsons supervision were how the surf rockin California crew rose to fame! And theyve got em! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; For the early part of the Beach Boys career, all of their singles were mixed and mastered and released only in the mono format they didn't release a single in stereo until 1968. In those days, hits were made on AM radio in mono. And the mono of those times worked well for Wilson, who suffers from partial deafness. Still, apart from Surfin' Safari, which was mono only, the Beach Boys did turn in stereo masters on all of their early albums up until 1965. The Beach Boys Today! was the first LP for which they only delivered a mono master. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Bottom line, the mono mixes were where Brian Wilson paid intense attention, and the dedication paid off! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Analogue Productions has taken 10 of the most classic, best-sounding Beach Boy titles ever and restored them to their mono glory! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; But theres no disputing that the close harmonies and one-of-a-kind rhythms of hits like Surfer Girl, In My Room, Little Deuce Coupe and more lend themselves naturally to stereo. So Analogue Productions has your 2-channel needs covered with prime stereo mix versions as well. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Kevin Gray, most from the original master tapes, and plated and pressed by Quality Record Pressings, the finest LP pressing facility in the world, these are awesome recordings to experience. And the look of each album befits its sonic superiority! Presented in & quot;old school & quot; Stoughton tip-on jackets, these time honored favorites shine brighter than the originals! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The Beach Boys' Party! is an album of mostly cover songs, featuring acoustic instruments, by the Beach Boys that was recorded for and marketed during the lucrative Christmas season. The original album release included a sheet of photographs of the band 'appearing' to be at the party at hand. It was the Beach Boys' tenth album release, and their third in 1965. Although it was recorded in a music studio, it is presented as an impromptu live recording of a party. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Capitol Records, which had already released ten Beach Boys albums in three years, was bugging the group for product that it could release in time for the 1965 Christmas season. To buy time while Brian Wilson began conceiving the Pet Sounds masterpiece, the group issued a set of covers, mostly of the '50s rock and R & amp;B they had listened to as schoolboys. Packaged as if it had been recorded at an actual party, it was in fact recorded in the studio, with friends and romantic partners adding sounds and vocals to create an informal atmosphere. With the exception of a bass guitar, all the instruments were acoustic; the acoustic guitar-and-bongo arrangements, in fact, give this a hootenanny campfire feel. In recent years, this album has gone up a few notches in critical esteem, praised for its loose, casual feel and insight into the group's influences...It does have the massive hit 'Barbara Ann,' which actually features Dean Torrence (of Jan & amp; Dean) on much of the lead vocals; other highlights include 'Mountain of Love,' an unexpected version of 'The Times They Are a-Changin',' and three Beatles covers. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; -Richie Unterberger, allmusic.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;iframe width= & quot;560 & quot; height= & quot;315 & quot; src= & quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/3FIyYBRTTj0?rel=0 & quot; frameborder= & quot;0 & quot; allowfullscreen & gt; & lt;/iframe & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;iframe width= & quot;560 & quot; height= & quot;315 & quot; src= & quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/StEmxHoCHnU?rel=0 & quot; frameborder= & quot;0 & quot; allowfullscreen & gt; & lt;/iframe & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 200g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; 33 1/3rpm mono mixes created under Brian Wilson's supervision & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio, most from the original master tapes or best sources available & lt;br & gt; Lacquer plating by Gary Salstrom & lt;br & gt; Pressed at Quality Record Pressings & lt;br & gt; Mono & lt;br & gt; & quot;Old school & quot; Stoughton tip-on jackets & lt;br & gt; Audio Production - Mark Linett & lt;br & gt; For Brother Records - Elliott Lott & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side One: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Sam Cooke could sing anything and make it work. But when you're talking about his strength as a singer, range is not relevant. It was his power to deliver it was about his phrasing, the totality of his singing, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Van Morrison, for Rolling Stone magazine's 100 Greatest Singers Of All Time, ranking Cooke at No. 4 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; This Best Of Sam Cooke album was the beacon that kept Cooke's most popular songs in the public eye. Between 1957 and his death seven years later, Cooke recorded an average of one Top Ten single every four months! And now on this single LP, you can relive the timeless best known and best-loved Sam Cooke classics. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;You Send Me & quot;, & quot;Only Sixteen & quot;, & quot;Wonderful World & quot;, & quot;Chain Gang & quot;, & quot;Cupid & quot;, & quot;Having a Party & quot; And more! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; For a couple of generations this was the first - and often only - Sam Cooke album they owned. Although there are more ambitious collections that show Cooke's remarkable range and diversity, this is still the best starting place. These are Sam Cooke's biggest commercial hits. This is the message in a bottle that brought his gifts to millions of people. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; What is it that makes Cooke's music so irresistible? Well, first the voice, of course. So good, in fact, was Cooke as a vocalist that Atlantic Records vice president Jerry Wexler said matter-of-factly, & lt;b & gt; & quot;Sam Cooke was the best singer who ever lived, no contest. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; But beyond just his voice, it's the phrasing that makes these songs so timeless and memorable. Cooke himself explained it this way: & quot;You just talk the story. That's how you get people to come to you - because it's not like a song, it's like two people rapping, only with a melody attached. But then when you come to the hook ('That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang'), then you're free, everybody's gonna sing that part, you want to get everybody to sing along. & quot; And they're still singing along. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; So we all know the songs. We all know they're great. But nobody's known not unless you were there when it was recorded just how incredible these recordings actually sound. Now, cut at 45 RPM with every detail tended to and no expense spared, we've got The Best of The Best of Sam Cooke. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Features: & lt;br & gt; 45rpm 180g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; LP1 - Side 1: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Matt Guitar Murphy and his brother Floyd were Beards childhood buddies and the ones who initially got him started on guitar. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Beard moved to Rochester, New York in the mid-1950s and from time to time would visit one of his brothers in Chicago. He became enamored with the blues being played there and eventually sat in, both with John Lee Hooker and Muddy Waters. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; In Rochester, he formed the Soul Brothers Six, playing bass and singing. He wouldnt perform in public on guitar until 1965. For most of the 1960s on through the '80s, Beard worked as an electrician by day and would occasionally play out at night and on weekends. He long ago gained a reputation as one of the best local players around Rochester and has sporadically been counted as one of the best nationally. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; In the '90s, Beard began recording with the Audioquest label, and those two releases have won major acclaim within the blues and audiophile communities. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; From 2010 Direct To Disc Sessions & lt;br & gt; 200g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Cut by Kevin Gray & lt;br & gt; Engineered by Katsu Naito & lt;br & gt; Pressed at Quality Record Pressings & lt;br & gt; Recorded at Blue Heaven Studios & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Don't get him started telling you about the things he's invented or done to draw a crowd. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Born in 1939 in Rockfield, South Carolina, Sam learned to play the organ as a youngster. He concentrated on boogie-woogie and gospel music before turning to blues while playing in Miami, Florida. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; His music has appeared on several labels including Holiday Inn, Atlantic, Styletone and his own Board label. By the late 1980s he was playing Bourbon Street clubs and remains based in New Orleans today. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Also captured on this Direct-to-Disc, two other great performers: Milton 'Alabama Slim' Frazier and Robert Lee Coleman. Frazier, nearly 7 feet tall, takes his guitar seriously and pairs it with deep, emotional vocals. He's lived in New Orleans for decades. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Robert Lee Coleman, the funky man in the mix, is as thin as a rail and uses his guitar to will you to move. His attacking play looks as if he's charged with electricity. Hailing from Macon, Georgia, Robert Lee did a long stint with Percy Sledge in the 1960s and worked with James Brown and the J.B.'s in the early 1970s. He's been a local secret around Georgia forever. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; From 2012 Direct To Disc Sessions & lt;br & gt; 200 Gram Audiophile Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Cut by Kevin Gray & lt;br & gt; Pressed at Quality Record Pressings & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side One: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Impressed by the 16-year-old musicians talent, House eventually took Mooney under his wing. Mooney pays tribute to his legendary mentor with two House covers for this gritty, drenched-with-emotion recording. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Mooneys style incorporates both savage energy and sensitivity, all in the bag of traditional blues. Hes a dynamic guitarist with a special talent for slide playing, and hes a commanding vocalist. His discography, dating back to 1979s Comin Your Way for Blind Pig, includes more than 12 titles on eight difference labels. But hearing him on direct-to-disc LP, recorded totally stripped down and natural, live in a church sanctuary, is truly the closest thing to hearing him in person. In fact, with the right hi-fi, its utterly spooky how in-person this recording sounds. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; From 2010 Direct To Disc Sessions & lt;br & gt; 200g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Cut by Kevin Gray & lt;br & gt; Engineered by Katsu Naito & lt;br & gt; Pressed at Quality Record Pressings & lt;br & gt; Recorded at Blue Heaven Studios & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Patsy Cline Greatest Hits 200g 45rpm 2LP (Vinyl)

This was a & lt;b & gt;straight transfer & lt;/b & gt;, bypassing the console altogether. There was no EQ of any kind. A true direct transfer, using a VMS 80, the most sophisticated lathe. You're hearing the master tape! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; What praises haven't been lauded the immortal singing talent of the late, great Patsy Cline? She died at the height of her career, at age 30, with two other stars of the Grand Ole Opry, and her manager, in a private plane crash near Camden, Tennessee, on the group's return to Nashville from Kansas City. Before that ill-fated flight, though, she left a musical legacy as one of the most influential and successful female vocalists of the 20th Century. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; In the late 1950s and the '60s, country music was essentially a singles medium. This album, first released in 1967, collects a dozen of Patsy's biggest hits all of them from the country singles market including & lt;b & gt; & quot;Walkin' After Midnight, & quot; & quot;Sweet Dreams (Of You), & quot; & quot;Crazy, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; and & lt;b & gt; & quot;I Fall to Pieces. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Producer Owen Bradley surrounds Cline's full-throated, emotionally charged vocals with lush, sophisticated arrangements that set the standard for Nashville's & quot;countrypolitan & quot; sound. On this 200-gram QRP pressing, mastered by Sterling Sound, Cline's seductive vocals have never sounded clearer or richer; and the packaging on this release is as deluxe as the audio. Analogue Productions has reissued this classic LP in a new deluxe tip-on gatefold jacket. Inside you'll enjoy a spread of vivid color studio publicity shots of Patsy, courtesy of the Universal Music Archives. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Cline's life and career has been the subject of numerous books, movies, documentaries, articles and stage plays. She has sold millions of albums through the past 50 years, giving her an iconic fan status, similar to that of country artists such as Johnny Cash and Dolly Parton. In 1992, the U.S. Postal Service honored her, along with Hank Williams, on a U.S. postage stamp. In 1995 she was honored with a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. Cline was also honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1999. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Before Shania Twain found a new way to combine country and pop in the 1990s, this was the top-selling country album of all time by a female artist. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Reviewer Michael Fremer says of the 33 1/3 RPM version: & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Cline's powerful, resonant voice and her unerring, more-generic-than-Southern diction and phrasing plus her ability to express hurt and vulnerability (without inducing too much self-pity) helped her cross over during her lifetime. Those qualities have also helped assure her continued popularity fifty years after her death...All of that will become apparent as you play this direct connection to the recording studio reissue from Analogue Productions...The original master tapes were transferred to lacquer at Sterling Sound by connecting the playback deck's output directly to the lathe, thereby bypassing altogether the mixing board. The sonics are sensational, particularly in terms of transparency...Everything from the silent 200g pressing to the & quot;tip-on & quot; (paper on cardboard) gatefold jacket and the center portfolio of great full color Patsy shots screams HIGH QUALITY! This reissue, from the AAA production, to the pressing and packaging quality epitomizes the purpose of the current return to vinyl. & quot; & lt;/b & gt;- Music = 9/11; Sound = 9/11 - Michael Fremer, AnalogPlanet.com. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 200g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; 45rpm & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; Plated and pressed at Quality Record Pressings & lt;br & gt; Mastered at Sterling Sound by Ryan Smith from the original master tapes & lt;br & gt; Deluxe Tip-on Gatefold Jacket & lt;br & gt; Meticulous test pressing evaluation and quality control & lt;br & gt; Highest-quality jackets and rice paper inner sleeves & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; LP 1 - Side 1: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.
