& lt;a href=javascript:; & quot; onclick= & quot;document.location.hash='SS'; & quot; & gt; & lt;img src= & quot;/content/images/mp32.gif & quot; hspace= & quot;10 & quot; align= & quot;left & quot; border= & quot;0 & quot; & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;0000FF & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Click Here for Sound Samples! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Diana Krall lends a breathy vocal to Cheryl Ernst/Jimmy Rowles ' & quot;Looking Back, & quot; a wistful remembrance of childhood... For a nonet, it's amazing how well the instruments lay out on the soundstage, uncluttered but vibrant, with the intimacy of a house concert... [the] deluxe, 180-gram, 45rpm double-LP set further opens the soundstage and showcases the players with an even greater clarity. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - The Absolute Sound, December 2006, Pg. 134 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; A new album by Anthony Wilson featuring the super talented and top selling jazz vocalist Diana Krall with whom Anthony has been recording and touring with for the last three to four years. Very special guest Ms. Krall appears on the track entitled & quot;Looking Back & quot; on vocals. This album features a mixture of Anthony Wilson originals with some jazz standards mixed in. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; This 180g double vinyl release features a regular 33 1/3rpm with 8 tracks and a 45rpm LP with 4 tracks including & quot;Looking Back & quot; featuring Diana Krall on vocals! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The Anthony Wilson Nonet with very special guest vocalist Diana Krall gathered in Studio 2 of Sunset Sound in Hollywood (the quite legendary recording location for Led Zeppelin 2 and 4, almost every Doors album, Janis Joplin's Pearl, James Taylor's Sweet Baby James and many other classic rock & amp; pop albums). Producer Joe Harley and engineer Mike Ross got things going around midday and Anthony and the Nonet had recorded 3 original Anthony Wilson tunes (featuring teenage mandolin sensation Eva Scow) by the late afternoon when Diana Krall arrived. & amp;nbsp; Ms. Krall stayed for several hours and recorded a brilliant and deeply moving performance of the tune Looking Back which was written and arranged by one of her mentors, the legendary Jimmy Rowles. & amp;nbsp; No exaggeration to say that this selection could be one of the best vocal cuts ever recorded by Groove Note and one of the audiophile highlights of the year to come. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Days two and three were spent recording a further dozen songs including a fabulous Duke Pearson cover Make It Good which with it's 21st century Basie-esque sound will most likely & amp;nbsp;open the album. & amp;nbsp;Other standout tracks include the superbly performed and beautifully played Tokyo Vamp featuring the ultra-talented Darek Oles on bass; the dynamic and powerful original, Amalgamation, featuring drummer Mark Ferber; and the third part of a suite called Quadra 3 with a sublime samba segue. & amp;nbsp; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The album is the latest and most ambitious effort by Anthony Wilson. & amp;nbsp;Following upon his two Groove Note releases (Our Gang and Savivity), Anthony, who has been playing full time with Diana Krall for the last 3-4 years is increasingly regarded as one of the most talented guitarist-composer-arrangers working in jazz today. & amp;nbsp; This album will surely cement that reputation and with its programme of original tunes and rewarding arrangements, influences ranging from Gil Evans and Charlie Mingus all the way to Weather Report and John Mclaughlin, as well as its dense and highly diverse palette of complex chords, sounds and textures, this release will provide continual listening pleasure for serious jazz fans & amp; audiophiles alike. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Expect sound that will be punchy and dynamic with many crescendos from the horns that retain a rich and seductive sonority but also with layers of sound as well as individual instruments to be resolved. & amp;nbsp; The Diana Krall track will surely become 'the' audiophile vocal demo of choice in years to come but other tracks like Make It Good and Amalgamation will put any audiophile system through its paces, testing rhythm, dynamics and tonal balance! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The album was mixed by Joe Harley and Mike Ross at LA-FX on Jan. 19th-21st with Gus Skinas handling the direct to DSD mixdown from the 2 inch multitrack analogue masters. & amp;nbsp; A half inch 30 ips stereo analogue master was also prepared for the 180g LP release. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Product Reviews: & lt;br & gt; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;The 45 rpm sides of the vinyl give you Melatonin Dream on Side C, followed by the absolutely gorgeous long-form ballad titled simply Hymn. Im not sure which of the saxists has the main solo here, but its surpassingly lovely... [a] feeling that you are in the room with the musicians rather than just listening to a recording. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - John Sunier, www.audaud.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;No mere accompanist (despite backing Madeleine Peyroux as well as [Diana] Krall), he plays superbly on two vintage Gibsons and a John Monteleone custom Radio Flyer Guitar. His playing and that of his group is top notch. The five horn frontline gives this an orchestral feeling, and Wilson's guitar is mixed in well with the group rather than demanding front and center stage... Another successful recording from Groove Note. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Music Review, Popular Contemporary & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Engineer (Michael C.) Rosss pickup of drummer Mark Ferbers snare drum on Melatonin Dream will blow your cookies! As for the rest of the sound of this record, it is easily the best sounding record of Rosss Groove Note records, possessing a transparency, three dimensionality and harmonic fullness his previous efforts, excellent as they were, cannot match... A super record on all counts: atmospheric, evocative, richly drawn and emotionally complete. You couldnt ask for more... Highest recommendation! & quot; & lt;/b & gt;- Michael Fremer, www.musicangle.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Anthony Wilson's Power of Nine has a very even and enjoyable flow and coming from Sunset Sound Studios means the sound quality is excellent. ...The playing is all top shell with the compositions and arrangements being extremely inventive and thematic in nature. & quot; & lt;/b & gt;- www.jazzreview.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;The 45 rpm sides of the vinyl give you Melatonin Dream on Side C, followed by the absolutely gorgeous long-form ballad titled simply Hymn. Im not sure which of the saxists has the main solo here, but its surpassingly lovely. On Side D is the title tune, followed by a repeat of the Diana Krall vocal, but this time at 45 rpm for comparison. What I hear is a step up in the audio reproduction from even the SACD, with more depth and feeling that you are in the room with the musicians rather than just listening to a recording. Even though the grooves get rather close to the label, my comparisons showed no degradation on the vinyl vs. the SACD as it approach the conclusion of each side. & quot; & lt;/b & gt;- John Sunier, www.audaud.com, 5 Stars!! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Limited Edition & lt;br & gt; 180g Audiophile 33 1/3rpm LP & amp; 45rpm LP & lt;br & gt; Special guest Diana Krall & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Anthony Wilson, guitar & lt;br & gt; Diana Krall, vocal (Looking Back) & lt;br & gt; Eva Scow, mandolin (LP 1-6,7) & lt;br & gt; Adam Schroeder, baritone sax & lt;br & gt; Alan Ferber, trombone & lt;br & gt; Mark Ferber, drums & lt;br & gt; Matt Otto, tenor sax & lt;br & gt; Matt Zebley, alto and soprano sax & lt;br & gt; Gilbert Castellanos, trumpet & lt;br & gt; Donald Vega, piano & lt;br & gt; Darek & quot;Oles & quot; Oleszkiewicz, bass & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;a name= & quot;SS & quot; & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/soundsampletitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;260 & quot; height= & quot;27 & quot; & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/selectionstitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;110 & quot; height= & quot;20 & quot; & gt; & lt;table border=0 & gt; & lt;/td & gt; & lt;/tr & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;td & gt; & lt;/td & gt; & lt;td class='plaintext' & gt; & lt;b & gt;LP1 - Side A 33rpm: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;td & gt; & lt;a href= & quot;http://ed2.cartnear.net/audioclips/grv1035/01.mp3 & quot; target='_blank' & gt; & lt;img src= & quot;/content/images/mp3.gif & quot; border=0 height=15 & gt; & lt;/img & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;/td & gt; & lt;td class='plaintext' & gt; 1.

A Must Have Blues Album! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; 180 Gram 45rpm Double Vinyl! Mastered from the Original Master Tapes by Bernie Grundman! Pressed at RTI! & lt;br & gt; A Tribute to the Music and Spirit of T-Bone Walker - Roy's Earliest Mentor! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Roy Gaines is the greatest living blues guitarist that you probably dont know anything about. Not only is Mr. Gaines a sizzling blues guitarist, he also possesses one of the most magnificent blues voices around. The real tragedy is that until very recently this supremely talented musician was almost forgotten by blues fans in the U.S. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Born in Houston in 1937, Roy started playing the guitar as a teenager and soon developed a reputation as an instrumental prodigy. By fourteen, he was actually being invited on stage to play with the legendary T-Bone Walker during the latters live gigs in Houston and became known as T-Bone Jr. By his early 20s, Roy was playing and recording with Roy Miltons band in LA but returned to Houston to join the Duke / Peacock blues label as a full time session guitarist on such seminal blues recordings as Bobby Blands Its My Life Baby and Junior Parkers Driving Me Mad. He was also the featured guitarist on a whole bunch of singles recorded by Big Mama Thorton for the same label. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; After going on the road with Joe Turner, Roy joined forces with the blues great, Chuck Willis. Roy stayed with Willis until the latter passed away in the late 50s. He then moved to NYC and recorded with Jimmy Rushing, as well as doing a jazz album with Coleman Hawkins on Prestige. Roy returned to LA and during the 60s became one of the citys leading session guitarists, playing with the Crusaders, Earl Grant, Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder as well as continuing his pure blues work with the likes of Bobby Bland, Albert King and Lightning Hopkins for the Jewel label. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The focus of this album is on the music and spirit of the late and very great T-Bone Walker, Roys earliest mentor and inspiration as a guitar player. T-Bones body of work includes such timeless blues standards as Stormy Monday, Dreamgirl, West Side Baby, T-Bone Blues and Im in An Awful Mood and many others. This album focuses on the classic tunes and styles from the period of the 40s and 50s. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Produced by Joe Harley and recorded at Ocean Way Studios in Sherman Oaks, CA. by engineer Mike Ross. All mastering was done from the original master tapes by Bernie Grundman. All LPs are plated and pressed by RTI, CA. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Winner of the 1998 & quot;Blues Comeback Artist of the Year & quot; award by the monthly blues magazine Living Blues. The award is based on a poll of blues critics conducted by Living Blues, which is one of the main blues magazines in the USA. The Comeback Artist of the Year honor is awarded to the most significant bluesman to rebound onto the scene in 1998. & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;A modern blues masterpiece! & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Andy Griggs, Real Blues & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Highly recommended & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Bill Milkowski, Jazz Times & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;On this Grove Note release, guitarist Roy Gaines pays tribute to his hero T-Bone Walker. I Got the T-Bone Walker Blues contains the Walker classics 'T-Bone Blues,' 'Stormy Monday,' 'T-Bone Shuffle,' and 'Westside Baby' along with Hank Williams' 'Honky Tonk Blues.' Backed by a full band highlighted by Clifford Solomon and George Parker on tenor saxophones, Will Miller on trumpet, and the Mighty Flyers' rhythm section, Gaines reminds listeners of Walker's role as a leader who wasn't afraid to incorporate swing, jazz, and country into his blues style. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Al Campbell, allmusic.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;[A]s if great music alone were not quite enough, the quality of the sound is equally impressive... Mastered by Bernie Grundman, the original release featured nine songs cut for 33rpm along with a second 45rpm LP with four 'bonus' tracks. It was a pretty impressive-sounding disc at the time. But Bernie Grundmans mastering chain saw some dramatic improvements in the early 2000s. Grundman remastered the session and cut the entire album at 45rpm... The new version is drop-dead gorgeous and its sound is of demonstration quality. I did a comparison of 'The Hustle is On' at 45prm from both releases, and the new one is clearly superior, with more extended highs -- even though the earlier cut was spread out over a half side, while the new one shares a side with two other tunes. It shows what can be achieved with an Ampex ATR-100 two-track recorder, some excellent microphones and a lot of talent. It doesnt get much better than this. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Dennis Davis, theaudiobeat.com, Music 4/5, Sound 5/5 & lt;br & gt; & lt;a href= & quot;http://www.theaudiobeat.com/music/gaines_mcleod_rush_shines_lp.htm & quot; & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;#0000FF & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Click Here to read the entire review! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 180 Gram & lt;br & gt; 45rpm Double Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Bernie Grundman from the Original Master Tapes! & lt;br & gt; Pressed at R.T.I. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Roy Gaines, guitar, vocals & lt;br & gt; Will Miller, trumpet & lt;br & gt; Clifford Solomon, tenor sax & lt;br & gt; Andy Kaulkin, piano & lt;br & gt; Bill Stuve, acoustic bass & lt;br & gt; Steve Magulian, drums & lt;br & gt; Brently Kearns, violin & lt;br & gt; Al Velasco, pedal steel guitar & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;a name= & quot;SS & quot; & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/soundsampletitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;260 & quot; height= & quot;27 & quot; & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/selectionstitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;110 & quot; height= & quot;20 & quot; & gt; & lt;table border=0 & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;td & gt; & lt;a href= & quot;http://ed2.cartnear.net/audioclips/grv1002-45/01.mp3 & quot; target='_blank' & gt; & lt;img src= & quot;/content/images/mp3.gif & quot; border=0 height=15 & gt; & lt;/img & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;/td & gt; & lt;td class='plaintext' & gt; 1.

The songs were specially selected to reflect this premise, i.e. they are mostly great vocal standards and/or ballads that have been recorded by Webster many times and are thus associated with his particular style and name. Some of these songs like Stardust, How Long Has This Been Going On, Georgia and Our Love is Here to Stay, Over The Rainbow are Webster classics. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The original album was recorded at the famous Ocean Way Recording Studios in Los Angeles, via all-analogue, direct to two-track. The recording was made on an ATR-100 tape machine with BASF-900 1/4 in. high resolution tape running at 30ips. Only vintage microphones were used including the Neumann M-49 tube microphone set-up for Jacinthas voice. The other microphones used (for the musicians) included Neumann M-50 and U-47. The recording and mastering cabling for this session was supplied by Audioquest. Mastered by Bernie Grundman direct from the original analogue masters on his highly modified and customized tube driven Sculley cutting lathe. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Groove Note is proud to announce the 20th anniversary release of GRV1001 Jacintha Heres To Ben in a very special One-step plating vinyl LP edition.

Lauren White At Last 180g 45rpm 2LP (Vinyl)
Lauren White is an extremely talented 20-year old from Texas who has been studying under the same vocal coach as Norah Jones. Lauren blends the sensuality and vulnerability of Norah Jones with the vocal range of Linda Ronstadt combined with a voice that exhibits both emotional depth as well as nuance and delicacy! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Lauren's first album features a wide array of songs, the album opens with a Billie Holiday styled tune My One & amp; Only, then drops to the darker overtones of the Anthony Wilson arranged Love For Sale, and transitions into a swinging Mack The Knife. This album also includes memorable covers of popular songs like Blue Bayou (Roy Orbison), Superstar (Carpenters), and to the country influenced, Why They Call It Falling (Lee Ann Womack). Lauren White also displays an impressive talent for song writing with three original songs here including a retro-ish Do You Remember, a heartbreaking ballad All I Do Is Cry and an up-tempo Brand New Love. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Featuring Anthony Wilson on guitar, Bill Cunliffe on piano and Ricky Woodward on sax, the album was recorded at Sunset Sound by Joe Harley (producer) and Mike Ross (engineer). The all analogue two inch 24-track masters were mixed down to 1/2 inch 30 ips stereo at LA-FX in Burbank, CA. These master tapes were then used in the mastering of both the LP and SACD and feature a stunning all analogue recording experience! This new release is a must have for all fans of superb audiophile quality female vocals! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Musicians: & lt;br & gt; Lauren White, vocals & lt;br & gt; Bill Cunliffe, piano (1, 5, 9) & lt;br & gt; Anthony Wilson, guitar (2, 4, 6, 11) & lt;br & gt; Ricky Woodard, tenor sax (4, 7, 9, 10) & lt;br & gt; Brian Piper, piano and arrangement (2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 10) & lt;br & gt; Chuck Berghofer, bass & lt;br & gt; Joe Bagg, Hammond B-3 organ (6, 11) & lt;br & gt; Mark Ferber, drums & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/soundsampletitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;260 & quot; height= & quot;27 & quot; & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/selectionstitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;110 & quot; height= & quot;20 & quot; & gt; & lt;table border=0 & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;td & gt; & lt;a href= & quot;http://ed2.cartnear.net/audioclips/grvsa1037/01.mp3 & quot; target='_blank' & gt; & lt;img src= & quot;/content/images/mp3.gif & quot; border=0 height=15 & gt; & lt;/img & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;/td & gt; & lt;td class='plaintext' & gt;1.

At Last (M. Gordan & amp; H. Warren) & lt;/td & gt; & lt;/tr & gt; & lt;/table & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Product Reviews: & lt;br & gt; & quot;If a comely 20 year old Texas vocalist can come to New York and snag Anthony Wilson, Bill Cunliffe and Ricky Woodard for her debut session, we are impressed at a whole lot of levels. With vocal chops she's been honing since childhood, White blows the roof of a set of standards that are plucked from all genres and brought home in her own way. Very much a vocalist you are going to want to hear more from as she's really got it going on and is going to blow you away. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Chris Spector, Midwest Record & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Ms. White's is a new name to me, but if this album is any indication well all be hearing a lot more from her... the caliber of musicians used to back her is as stellar as the material. Pianists Bill Cunliffe and Brian Piper, guitarist Anthony Wilson, tenor saxophonist Ricky Woodward, bassist Chuck Berghofer, Hammond B-3 organist Joe Bagg, and drummer Mark Forber make sure that the playing is as strong as the vocals. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - John Crossett, Soundstage.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;This is a 45rpm, double-LP release put together by Groove Notes house unit of producer Joe Harley and engineer Michael Ross, so you just know its going to sound good before you even drop it on the platter of your turntable. Harley and Ross have some of the best instincts and ears in the music industry, and they dont fail them here. Whites voice is as realistic-sounding as Ive ever heard. Its full, rich, well delineated and three-dimensional. You can hear every inflection, and you get a superb sense of the interplay between the singer and band. As with Ms. Whites voice, the instruments are all clearly rendered with excellent timbre and tonality. At Last is a winner from the team of Harley, Ross and Groove Note. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - John Crossett, Soundstage.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;White has a captivating voice, is smooth and technically sound... The arrangements appear tailored to her voice. One of the creative geniuses of our day Anthony Wilson had his hand in writing new arrangements for Love For Sale, and the title track At Last. Bill Cunliffe worked up new arrangements for Mack The Knife, My Funny Valentine, and My One And Only. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Joe Montague, Riveting Rifts & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;White invests the standards and originals of debut At Last with gratifying honesty, showcasing her vocal and songwriting talents. One tune that immediately stands out is & quot;Superstar, & quot; the Delaney and Bonnie hit best known from the Carpenters' hit 1971 version. White's delivery claims the song as her own, not easy to do with a tune so closely associated with another artist... & quot; & lt;/b & gt;- Ernest Barteldes & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Lauren White is a name that you should probably commit to memory, because the twenty-one year-old jazz singer from Dallas, Texas, possesses an abundance of talent, a great attitude, and is one of the most polite people you will ever talk to, qualities which will serve her well in the music industry. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Joe Montague, www.jazzpolice.com & lt;a href= & quot;http://www.jazzpolice.com/content/view/7416/79/ & quot; target= & quot;_blank & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;#0000FF & quot; & gt;Click Here to read the entire review! & lt;/font & gt; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/a & gt;
Percussion Direct Featuring Bill Cunliffe, Paulihno Da Costa & The Larry Karush & Robin Cox Ensembles 180g 45rpm D2D 2LP (Vinyl)
The very first release from the new all analogue, vinyl only Groove Note Black Label: PERCUSSION DIRECT was cut direct to disc on the weekend of December 15 and 16 2007. The album features a heavily percussion oriented programme spread over the four 45 rpm direct to disc sides with performances from Bill Cunliffe, Paulihno Da Costa, the Larry Karush Percussion Quartet and the Robin Cox Ensemble. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; One of LAs leading jazz pianists, Bill Cunliffe, teams up with the Brazilian master precussionist Paulihno Da Costa for bossa inspired instrumentals. The Larry Karush Percussion Quartet gives you a taste of world music flavoured jazz featuring tablas and frame drums. The music performed the quartet is an eclectic and dynamic mix of contemporary jazz and world music with tablas, congas and frame drum highlighted. A very special and sonically outstanding cut from the Santa Barbara-based contemporary classical group The Robin Cox Ensemble which features a line-up including violin, cello, bass clarinet, marimba and tablas and is super dynamic! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; This album, like all the future titles from the Groove Note Black Label, is recorded Direct-To disc and is released EXCLUSIVELY in the high resolution 180g double 45 rpm LP format! This LP set is packaged in a high gloss jacket with top quality inner sleeves. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Recorded and cut at the Bernie Grundman Mastering Studio under the watchful eye of Bernie Grundman himself. Produced by Joe Harley and Ying Tan and the balance engineer Scott Sedillo. Scott Sedillo has been behind the board for the recently released and widely praised new jazz albums from Straight-ahead Records. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Coming across this album at the Original Recordings Group site was a real surprise. Almost no one is still doing direct-to-discs, due to the great care and frustration of recording without the ability to edit, the lack of breaks between tracks, and the reduced timing per side... If you have a top-quality turntable and tonearm system and don't own a single direct disc from that era, pick up this one to see just what could be accomplished with this now-superseded technology. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - John Henry, audaud.com, 4/5 Stars!! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Features: & lt;br & gt; 45 rpm 180g Audiophile Double LP & lt;br & gt; Direct To Disc & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Musicians: & lt;br & gt; The Larry Karush Ensemble (1, 5, 6) & lt;br & gt; Bill Cunliffe & amp; Paulihno Da Costa (2, 3) & lt;br & gt; The Robin Cox Ensemble (4) & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;br & gt; The Larry Karush Ensemble & lt;br & gt; & lt;/b & gt; 1. 7 Cha Cha & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Side B: & lt;br & gt; Bill Cunliffe & amp; Paulihno Da Costa & lt;br & gt; & lt;/b & gt; 2.

Recorded Live Direct to 2-track on 30ips analogue tape! & lt;/font & gt; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; One of the best sounding chamber music recordings that we've ever heard! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Hailed for its soul-stirring, captivating performances of supreme artistry, The Jung Trio, & quot;a spectacular group with wonderful musicality at their fingertips, & quot; (Ezra Laderman, composer and Dean Emeritus of Yale University) has established its status as one of the most notable rising young ensembles of today. The group is comprised of sisters Jennie, Ellen, and Julie Jung, who each contributes her own singular warmth and impassioned sensibility to the collaborative force. The trio has appeared in concerts all across North America as well as around the world. In April, 2007, they swept the auditions held in the City of Beverly Hills. As a result, the Trio was presented on Los Angeles County Museum of Art's & quot;Sundays Live, & quot; the Beverly Hills & quot;Music in the Mansion, & quot; and the Trinity Lutheran, Manhattan Beach & quot;Previews & quot; concert series. The Jung Trio won the Grand Prize at the 2002 Yellow Springs Chamber Music Competition and the Bronze Medal at the 2002 Fischoff Competition. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The sisters were born and raised in Toronto, where they received their early music training as scholarship students in the Young Artist Performance Academy at the Royal Conservatory of Music. Initial successes include top prizes at the Canadian Music Competition, Kiwanis Music Festival, and the CIBC National Music Festival. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Jennie Jung received her Bachelor of Music degree from the University of Toronto, pupil of Marietta Orlov. Following studies at Yale School of Music (Master of Music and Artist Diploma) with Claude Frank, she went on to receive a Doctor of Musical Arts at the Juilliard School in May, 2008. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Ellen Jung completed studies in the Bachelor of Music program at the University of Toronto with Lorand Fenyves and David Zafer. She received her Master of Music and Artist Diploma from Yale as a student of Syoko Aki. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Julie Jung studied with Shauna Rolston at the University of Toronto, where she graduated with a Bachelor of Music. She received her Master of Music from the New England Conservatory of Music as a student of Laurence Lesser, before joining her sisters at Yale, where she completed the Artist Diploma as a student of Aldo Parisot. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;I then played another new arrival: the Jung Trio's recording of Dvorak's Piano Trio in F MInor, Op. 65 (two 45rpm LPs, Groove Note GRV1043-1), recorded live in concert direct to 2-track analog tape at 30 ips and mastered by Bernie Grundman. It was an ear-opener: the violin, cello and piano were reproduced with an appropriately rich darkness, three dimensionality, transparency, and versimilitude that had me thinking: Can it possibly sound any better? & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Michael Fremer, Stereophile April 2009 In Heavy Rotation & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;The recording is gorgeous: warm, spacious and everything you love about analog that digital just cant give you, which makes the rarity of thisa new, live to two track analog classical music recording all the more special. The violin is silky-rich and real sounding stage right (on the left), while the cello is deep, sonorous and full stage left. The piano, center stage is palpable and appropriately liquid. The recording exudes warmth, transparency and three-dimensionality as the confines of the space are subtly suggested in the delicate acoustic set up around the players. & quot; & lt;/b & gt;- Michael Fremer, musicangle.com, 9 out of 10 Music, 11 out of 10 Sound!!! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;...if youre looking for a sophisticated but accessible piece to show off just how spectacularly natural your system can sound, you cant go wrong with this.

The Anthony Wilson Trio Jack Of Hearts 180g 45rpm 2LP (Vinyl)

Rated a 'Best Audiophile Label Recording' in the November 2009 issue of The Absolute Sound! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Recorded direct to 2-track pure analogue in the legendary Oceanway Studio A in Hollywood! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; A possible breakout album for Anthony Wilson, this organ trio with the superb Larry Goldings on B3 features two of the finest drummers working today - half the tunes are with the swinging Jeff Hamilton on drums and the rest session drummer par excellence Jim Keltner who lays down some truly great percussion. Aside from Wilson's exploration of Latin, south of the border influences, the recording features unique performances of music by Ellington, Hawkins, Jerry Goldsmith and Van Dyke Parks. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Recorded direct to 2-track pure analogue in the legendary Oceanway Studio A in Hollywood on January 27 and 28, 2009. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Jack of Hearts is straight ahead jazz, served classic trio style. Anthony Wilson is a great guitarist, who plays with a light touch and an exquisite sense of space on Clark and Old Fender amps. Trio partner Larry Goldrings brings an equal level of tastiness to the Hammond B-3, mixed in with Jim Keltner and Jeff Hamilton on drums to round out the group. The disc has a nice mixture of jazz standards from Ellington, Hawkins and Parks, with the remaining half of the disc Wilson originals. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; Jeff Dorgay, Tone Audio, July 2009 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Theres an organic, analog feel throughout, giving the disc an intimacy and lively nature... The blending of Wilson and Goldings with the two drummers makes this a winner. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - George Fendel, Jazz Society of Oregon & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Sonically, you get everything you could hope for in a Michael C. Ross Oceanway live to two track analog production. There are sonic riches galore from the to-salivate-from Hammond B-3 organ with its big, fat warm bass lines to the warm, round yet precise electric guitar lines and the woody, cracklin rim shots snappy snares, punchy cymbals and cataclysmic kick drum explosions. Ross is going for impact not soundstaging or three guys playing in the distance in a big room, so expect a big drum kit spread across the stage and room-filling man-sized images. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Michael Fremer, Music Angle, rated 8/10 for music, 9/10 for sound! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;...crank it up and enjoy this not-so-guilty, below the neck retro-pleasure fest. Yes the CD layer sounds pretty good and the SACD even better, particularly in the air and atmosphere department but for the full effect, do insist upon the double 45 rpm version. Its the biggest and the best bang for your (extra few) bucks! & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Michael Fremer, Music Angle, rated 8/10 for music, 9/10 for sound! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Musicians: & lt;br & gt; Anthony Wilson, guitar & lt;br & gt; Larry Goldings, Hammond B-3 organ, celeste & lt;br & gt; Jeff Hamilton, drums (2-4, 9) & lt;br & gt; Jim Keltner, drums (1, 5-8, 10) & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;a name= & quot;SS & quot; & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/soundsampletitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;260 & quot; height= & quot;27 & quot; & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/selectionstitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;110 & quot; height= & quot;20 & quot; & gt; & lt;table border=0 & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;td & gt; & lt;a href= & quot;http://ed2.cartnear.net/audioclips/grv1046/01.mp3 & quot; target='_blank' & gt; & lt;img src= & quot;/content/images/mp3.gif & quot; border=0 height=15 & gt; & lt;/img & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;/td & gt; & lt;td class='plaintext' & gt; 1.

Vocals are tremendously dynamic (no compression or limiting used), with superb presence and detail for all other instruments including the drum set. Resolution is of the highest order and this is an LP that rewards for both musical performance and outstanding audio quality. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt;This Limited Edition One Step album has been mastered and cut by Bernie Grundman from the original 30 ips 1/4 inch analogue master tapes. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;Comments regarding 180g 45rpm 2LP: & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;...the all-analog pedigree is evident. The sound is smooth, dynamic and big, with massive weight and presence. I listened first to the SACD, thinking that it would be hard to improve upon, but the RTI-pressed 45rpm LPs offered even greater resolution and naturalness, neither to the detriment of everything the SACD does so well. Use Me is demo material in either format, but if your analog rig is up to digging everything out of the groove, you won't hear a better-sounding record this year or next. & quot; - & lt;/strong & gt;Marc Mickelson, The Audio Beat, 4/5 Music, 5/5 Sound! & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;Tasty as is the back up band and are the outstanding acoustic arrangements, Ms. Fernandez steals the show with a voice that is as unlikely as her cover photo would have you thinking & quot;funky black chick & quot;...While the cover shot makes her look somewhat academic and perhaps reserved, trust me, there's no governor on her voice or the rawness of the emotions she pours forth. When appropriate she dials it down to a simmer as on a great cover of Al Kooper's BS & amp;T classic & quot;More Than You'll Ever Know & quot;. She even covers the somewhat obscure John Deacon- Freddie Mercury track & quot;Cool Cat & quot; from Queen's Hot Space album...Ms. Fernandez's performance on this slow simmer will have to convince you that she's the real deal. & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; - Michael Fremer, analogplanet.com, Music 10/11, Sound 11/11 & lt;/p & gt; & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;Fernandez explodes on the scene with a captivating set of performances covering everything from Barry White to Curtis Mayfield to Al Kooper. Sounding more like she hails from Nashville or Detroit than Singapore, Fernandez easily escapes the 'female vocalist' genre - that dreaded music played at shows to make an audio system sound sweet without disclosing its weaknesses. & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;Recorded with a crack group of Los Angeles studio musicians at Oceanway Recording, Use Me combines a truly outstanding set of performances with some of the best sound you could hope for. Recorded analogue to 30 ips 1/4 inch tape and mastered by Bernie Grundman, Al Green's & quot;Simply Beautiful & quot; as sung by Fernandez creates the illusion of having the master tape at home. Jaw-dropping sound. & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; - HiFi+, 10/10 Recording, 10/10 Music & lt;/p & gt; & lt;blockquote cite= & quot;quote source & quot; & gt; & quot;What a refreshing breath of R & amp;B air; to hear a Singaporean singer cover Curtis Mayfield & amp; Marvin Gaye. What a wonderful change from the usual jazz singers covering the American Songbooks... The sound quality of this album is truly reference quality ...a must purchase! & quot; & lt;footer & gt; -Philip O'Hanlon, www.thehighnote.com & lt;/footer & gt; & lt;/blockquote & gt;

The improvements of this One Step release from Groove Note are not subtle - sure the dynamics are more striking, but it's the voice that amazes with less sibilance and smoother delivery. If there is a more impressive sounding modern recording of the human voice, I haven't heard it.

& lt;p & gt;The album throws the spotlight on the fantastic voice of Singaporean vocalist Vanessa Fernandez. The song selection includes tunes by Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield, Isaac Hayes, Earth Wind & amp; Fire, Bill Withers, Al Green and others. Top musicians playing on the album include the great bassist Lee Sklar (Phil Collins, Rita Coolidge, Bonnie Raitt, Linda Ronstadt, Lyle Lovett), acoustic guitars Tim Pierce (Bruce Springsteen, Michael Jackson, Celine Dion, Roger Waters, Tina Turner, Eric Clapton), electric piano Jim Cox (Willie Nelson, BB King, Aaron Neville, Ringo Starr, Lyle Lovett), drums Victor Indrizzo (Macy Grey, Marianne Faithfull, Meatloaf, Emmylou Harris), percussion Rafael Padillo (Julio Iglesias, Celine Dion, Pavarotti, Gloria Estefan), and harmonica Stanley Behrens (Willie Dixon, Canned Heat, Ruth Brown). This is a great group of top LA musicians backing superlative performances by a great new singer!!! & lt;/p & gt; & lt;section id= & quot;features & quot; & gt; & lt;h3 & gt;Features & lt;/h3 & gt; & lt;ul & gt; & lt;li & gt;Numbered Strictly Limited Edition - 2500 copies & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;One-Step Plating & lt;/li & gt; & lt;LI & gt;180g 45rpm & lt;/LI & gt; & lt;LI & gt;Double LP & lt;/LI & gt; & lt;LI & gt;Analogue only release - no digital version of this remaster is scheduled & lt;/LI & gt; & lt;LI & gt;Lacquers newly re-cut from original 30 ips direct to 2 track all analogue stereo master by Bernie Grundman & lt;/LI & gt; & lt;LI & gt;Deluxe Gatefold Jacket with special One Step sticker/labeling & lt;/LI & gt; & lt;/ul & gt; & lt;/section & gt; & lt;section id= & quot;musicians & quot; & gt; & lt;h3 & gt;Musicians & lt;/h3 & gt; & lt;table & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;th & gt;Vanessa Fernandez & lt;/th & gt; & lt;td & gt;vocals & lt;/td & gt; & lt;/tr & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;th & gt;Tim Pierce & lt;/th & gt; & lt;td & gt;guitars & lt;/td & gt; & lt;/tr & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;th & gt;Leland Sklar & lt;/th & gt; & lt;td & gt;electric bass & lt;/td & gt; & lt;/tr & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;th & gt;Victor Indrizzo & lt;/th & gt; & lt;td & gt;drums & lt;/td & gt; & lt;/tr & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;th & gt;Rafael Padilla & lt;/th & gt; & lt;td & gt;percussion & lt;/td & gt; & lt;/tr & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;th & gt;Jim Cox & lt;/th & gt; & lt;td & gt;keyboards & lt;/td & gt; & lt;/tr & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;th & gt;Stanley Behrens & lt;/th & gt; & lt;td & gt;harmonica & lt;/td & gt; & lt;/tr & gt; & lt;/table & gt; & lt;/section & gt; & lt;section id= & quot;selections & quot; & gt; & lt;h3 & gt;Selections & lt;/h3 & gt; & lt;h4 & gt;Side A: & lt;/h4 & gt; & lt;ol & gt; & lt;li & gt;I Just Wanna Be With You & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Be Thankful For What You Got & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Distant Lover & lt;/li & gt; & lt;/ol & gt; & lt;h4 & gt;Side B: & lt;/h4 & gt; & lt;ol start= & quot;4 & quot; & gt; & lt;li & gt;Hard Times & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;That Loving Feeling & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Simply Beautiful & lt;/li & gt; & lt;/ol & gt; & lt;h4 & gt;Side C: & lt;/h4 & gt; & lt;ol & gt; & lt;li & gt;Use Me & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Cool Cat & lt;/li & gt; & lt;/ol & gt; & lt;h4 & gt;Side D: & lt;/h4 & gt; & lt;ol start= & quot;4 & quot; & gt; & lt;li & gt; Here But I'm Gone & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Be Thankful For What You Got (Alternate Mix) & lt;/li & gt; & lt;/ol & gt; & lt;/section & gt;
Jacintha Jacintha Goes To Hollywood 180g 45rpm 2LP (Vinyl)
Years in the making and with a cast of thousands and a budget in the millions, this has been an epic effort!!! OK, seriously, the effort was certainly epic and, after a gap of almost three years since her last Groove Note release (GRV1026 Jacintha: The Girl From Bossa Nova), we believe the wait has been well worth it and her fans and many many others will enjoy this new album tremendously. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Jacintha Goes To Hollywood sees the sensual and seductive-voiced chanteuse take on the challenge of performing theme songs and other well known movie related tunes. The program features an eclectic mix of musical material, from the almost over familiar & quot;Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head & quot; and & quot;California Dreaming & quot; to & quot;On Days Like These & quot; from the original British version of The Italian Job. Her almost solemn and low key performance of & quot;California Dreaming & quot; will completely blow you away as will her thrillingly dynamic and bossa tinged take on & quot;The Windmills Of Your Mind. & quot; Add in a few other classics like & quot;Alfie, & quot; & quot;Que Sera Sera & quot; plus a fabulous light 60s-ish version of & quot;A Man & amp; A Woman & quot; (with electric piano and bongos) and voila! - you have the makings of another Jacintha classic. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Featuring Anthony Wilson on guitar, Iskandar Ismail on piano, Larry Goldings on Hammond B-3, and Ricky Woodward on sax, the album was recorded all analogue at 15 ips on 2 inch 24-track masters and these MT masters mixed down to 1/2 inch 30 ips stereo at Sunset Sound by Joe Harley (producer) and Mike Ross (engineer). The 1/2 inch stereo analogue masters were transferred to DSD by David Glaser at Airshow Mastering for the mastering of the stereo hybrid SACD. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; This release represents some of Jacinthas finest work for Groove Note and will be a sure hit with her fans and anyone who enjoys audiophile quality female vocals! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Jacintha sings several songs from movies in a smooth melodic and refreshingly straight-forward fashion. Eschewing the vocal pyrotechnics, weird utterings and off-the-wall arrangements that sometimes mar many modern singers attempts to make their mark on or improve songs, the entire cast simply sings and plays, sings and plays well and allows the songs to speak for themselves. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Brad Walseth, www.jazzchicago.net & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Jacintha Goes to Hollywood is an easy listening jazz vocal album with the studied influence of singers like Julie London and Astrud Gilberto. With a few exceptions it's a fine choice for a dinner party or relaxation. If these descriptions don't meet the criteria of jazz-influenced vocalists, there are other musical reasons to stay tuned. The presentation of the material is immeasurably enhanced by a very talented Los Angeles ensemble that raises the bar. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Michael P.

The Summer Knows & lt;/td & gt; & lt;/tr & gt; & lt;/table & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Product Reviews: & lt;br & gt; & quot;Jacintha's backing band is always top-flight and this one is no exception... Guitarist Wilson, who has a couple of killer albums on Groove Note, is a standout... Jacintha works very close to the mike for a sexy and intimate sound something like the jazz thrushes of the 1950s- Peggy Lee etc. She is the No. 1 jazz vocalist with many audiophiles due to the high technical standards of Groove Note and the excellence of their product - whether on SACD, standard CD or vinyl. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - John Henry , www.audaud.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;The label has surrounded Jacíntha with an outstanding cast of musicians, who for the most part provide a gauzy backdrop for the singers gentle and elegant vocals. The mood for this fine album is set early when Howlett Smith whistles in the laid back On Days Like These, originally sung by Matt Monro for the 1969 film The Italian Job. In addition to possessing outstanding vocals, Jacíntha has one of those voices that sounds pleasant, and endears the vocalist to you immediately. Shes not seductive or flirtatious, but she is definitely charming and romantic. The producers achieved a simple, vintage sound for this CD by recording it in analogue. & quot; & lt;/b & gt;- rivetingriffs.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;The Lady presents nine Pop and movie related tunes using her seductive and sensuous voice as she interprets them in tasteful jazzy fashion... Delivering a unique approach to familiar movie tunes, Jacintha Goes To Hollywood plays well staying in the light jazzy mode providing a pleasurable listening experience. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Edward Blanco, ejazznews

Autumn Leaves is a collection of songs from Johnny Mercer. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;Autumn Leaves & quot; finds Jacintha in excellent form and, once again, delivering several strong performances on many of the songs. One of the highlights of the album is the title track which finds Jacintha singing in the original French intro and first verse as well as the later Johnny Mercer English lyrics. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; We weren't the only ones impressed with Jacintha's vocal prowess, she also caught the attention of Bordertown Pictures (Touchstone Pictures) and a team arrived during the recording session to capture a brand new version of the Grammy-award winning song & quot;Here's To Life. & quot; With Jacintha featured on vocals and the backing of Kei Akagi (piano), Teddy Edwards (tenor sax), Larance Marable (drums), Joe La Barbera (drums) and Darek Oles (bass) the musicianship on the recording is fantastic. Artie Butler, the Grammy winning composer of & quot;Here's To Life & quot; was also in attendance and played the Hammond B-3 organ on the track! The song was featured in the opening title sequence for the Ron Shelton film & quot;Play It To The Bone. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;Play It To The Bone, & quot; by Touchstone Pictures (a division of the Disney Corp.,) is directed by Ron Shelton (Bull Durham, Tin Cup, Blaze, White Men Can't Jump) and stars Antonio Banderas, Woody Harrelson and Lolita Davidovich. The film was released nationwide on January 14, 2000. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; This limited edition 45rpm album includes Jacintha's performance of & quot;Here's To Life & quot; as a bonus track. The album was recorded live direct to 2-track and was mastered using Sony's new Direct Stream Digital (DSD) process by Bernie Grundman in Hollywood to produce an album of true audiophile quality sound. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;A voice of heartbreaking purity. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Chuck Graham, Tucson Citizen, Gannett News Service & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 45 rpm 180g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; Limited Edition & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Jacintha, vocals & lt;br & gt; Kei Akagi, piano & lt;br & gt; Teddy Edwards, tenor sax & lt;br & gt; Larance Marable, drums & lt;br & gt; Joe La Barbera, drums & lt;br & gt; Darek Oles, bass & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/soundsampletitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;260 & quot; height= & quot;27 & quot; & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/selectionstitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;110 & quot; height= & quot;20 & quot; & gt; & lt;table border=0 & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;td & gt; & lt;/td & gt; & lt;td class='plaintext' & gt; LP1 - Side A: & lt;/td & gt; & lt;/tr & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;td & gt; & lt;a href= & quot;http://ed2.cartnear.net/audioclips/grvcd1006/01.mp3 & quot; target='_blank' & gt; & lt;img src= & quot;/content/images/mp3.gif & quot; border=0 height=15 & gt; & lt;/img & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;/td & gt; & lt;td class='plaintext' & gt; 1.

The Anthony Wilson Trio Our Gang 180g 45rpm 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;180g Vinyl 45rpm Double LP! & lt;br & gt; Pressed at RTI! Cut by Bernie Grundman on All Analogue Tube Cutting System! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The Absolute Sound 2001 Golden Ear Award Winner for artistic and sonic excellence! & lt;br & gt; 1995 Thelonoius Monk Competition Award Winner! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Composer-arranger-bandleader and guitarist Anthony Wilson, the son of big band maestro Gerald Wilson, is one of the most brilliant musicians working in the US jazz scene today. A recipient of the IAJE's Gil Evans Fellowship Award, Wilson's rich, fluid and easy going style, with it's seductive references to Wes Montgomery and Kenny Burrell, is much in evidence on his latest album, Our Gang from the Groove Note label out of Los Angeles. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Playing with a much pared down structure of guitar trio with organ and drums (his previous recordings have been with much larger outfits) gave Wilson the freedom to focus more on his own inventive and incomparable skills as soloist, and his close rapport with drummer Mark Ferber and organist Joe Bagg, with whom he has been playing with regularly for the last 2-3 years, pays off richly in this session. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Wilson's previous three albums for the Mama label received a great deal of critical and commercial recognition. The self-titled debut album hit number 1 on the Gavin charts and received a Grammy nomination in the Large Jazz Ensemble category in 1997. His second album Goat Hill Junket also achieved great success both critically and on radio while his third album released in 1999 features talents such as Jeff Clayton, Greg Ellis and Jack Nimitz all performing a suite commissioned by the IAJE. Wilson also received a Downbeat International Critics Poll award for Composer Deserving Wider Recognition in 2000. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Wilson's Our Gang is the culmination of his more recent ideas, in both originals and standards, and this album includes some stunning performances of standards like Chitlins Con Carne (By Kenny Burrell), I Want You - She's So Heavy (from Abbey Road), and Prelude To A Kiss (Strayhorn). & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The album also contains further evidence of Anthony Wilson's skill and talent as a composer as demonstrated by original compositions like Our Gang and Britta's Blues. The sterling back-up by Ferber and Bagg also deserves special mention with organist Bagg in particular exchanging great solos on the Hammond B-3 with Wilson. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Recorded by the A-list team of producer Joe Harley (ECM, Enja) and Mike Ross (engineer) at Cello Studios in Hollywood, this remarkable session serves not only to cement the much vaunted reputation established with the Mama albums but in fact greatly extends Wilson's high profile position as one jazz's finest talents. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; There are many records and labels who declare themselves to be of & lt;b & gt; & quot;audiophile quality & quot; & lt;/b & gt;. Groove Note records all of their albums at the best studios in Hollywood (Oceanway, Record One, Cello, Sunset Sound) using a top Grammy nominated recording engineer, & lt;b & gt;Michael C.

Jacintha's first new album since 2007 features a fabulous selection of hits from the James Taylor catalogue including: You've Got A Friend, Sweet Baby James, Walking Man, Fire & amp; Rain, Shower The People and several other popular choices. Jacintha's first popular vocal album represents a striking change of pace from this Singaporean audiophile favorite. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Jacintha sings 11 of Taylor's 'greatest hits' backed by a stellar lineup of Los Angeles studio musicians (two guitars, bass, keyboards, drums, and violin). She possesses a gorgeous voice and enjoys the advantage of top-notch arrangements. Performances aside, the exceptionally well-recorded Fire & amp; Rain stands out because of its outstanding sound. Compare this 45 RPM set to most any other album on vinylreviews.com with a sound rating of five and add another point the sonics are literally off-the-charts good. It was recorded at the Henson Recording Studio, the former A & amp; M Studios in Los Angeles where Joni Mitchell recorded Blue. Yet Fire & amp; Rain far exceeds the recording quality of Mitchells iconic recordand, Id venture to say, surpasses the sonics of any recording of a female vocalist not issued by Groove Note. Take that, Diana Krall. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Dennis Davis, vinylreview.com, September 2018, 5/5 Sound, 4.5/5 Total Rating & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Several of the best LA-based musicians associated with James Taylor during his lengthy and stellar career appear on this album: Lee Sklar (bass), Russ Kunkel (drums), Jim Cox (keyboards & amp; currently touring with JT), and Dean Parks (acoustic guitar & amp; currently touring with JT). All songs are arranged by Tim Pierce (Vanessa Use Me and Vanessa When The Levee Breaks) who also plays acoustic guitar on several tracks. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The entire album is recorded 100% pure analogue at The Henson Studios in Hollywood, formerly know as A & amp;M (and the original location of the Charlie Chaplin film studios). In 1999, A & amp;M Records was sold to Universal Music. Subsequently the studio location, including all the recording studio facilities and equipment, was purchased by The Jim Henson Company. Henson Recording Studios was established in 2000 and continues the legacy of technical expertise and excellent service founded by A & amp;M. & lt;br & gt; The album is tracked to 2 inch Multitrack analogue tape running at 30 ips and mixed down to 1/4 inch tape also running at 30 ips. All tracking and mixing is done at Sunset Sound by recording engineer and co-producer Michael C. Ross. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The album is mastered and all vinyl cut by Bernie Grundman at Bernie Grundman Mastering using the 1/4 inch 30 ips master and on the all analogue cutting system at Bernie Grundman Mastering. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Michael C. Ross on the mixing console created the well-balanced wide open and dynamic sound of this pure analogue recording. Bernie Grundman, admired as mastering genius prepared the tapes for the transfer, and also did the vinyl cut. A real treat for the ears

Vanessa Fernandez I Want You 180g 45rpm 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Michael Fremer Rated 4 Stars for Performance / 5 Stars for Sonics! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; 180g Vinyl 45rpm Double LP! & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Bernie Grundman From The Original 30 ips Analogue Masters! & lt;br & gt; Pressed & amp; Plated at RTI! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Fabulous All Analogue Sonics! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; 'I Want You' sees Vanessa return to the '70s R & amp;B classics and modern soul catalogue that was delivered so very well on 'Use Me' but with the addition of more recent hits from the likes of Radiohead and Rag & amp; Bone Man. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Vanessa's third session for Groove Note features a collection of classic and old school soul and RnB classics with more recent songs included in the mix. Vanessa covers artists that include Curtis Mayfield, Marvin Gaye, Michael Jackson, Gloria Gayner, Amy Winehouse, Hall & amp; Oates, Radiohead and More!. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The album was recorded at United (former Oceanway) in Hollywood and mixed at Sphere in Burbank. All tracking and mixing was done 100% all analogue. Michael C Ross recorded the album in United Studio B over four days on a 24 track Studer using 2 inch analogue tape running at 30 ips. The final 30 ips 1/4 inch stereo master was used by Bernie Grundman to cut the 45 rpm LP and create the SACD. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Tim Pierce handled all the arrangements as on the first two Vanessa albums. Musicians include former Michael Jackson bassist Alex Al, current Jimmy Kimmel show band keyboardist Jeff Babko, top LA-based horn player Ricky Woodard as well as returning musicians from 'When The Levee Breaks'. Needless to say, Vanessa and the band deliver some truly exceptional performances on this session and with fabulous all analogue sonics! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;As he usually does, engineer Ross splits the difference between an audiophile-savvy, band-in-the-room perspective and the pop and slam of a great commercial studio recording. Mastering is Bernie Grundman. The sound picture is well-organized, and images are solid and three-dimensional, within a supertransparent soundstage. From the first center-fill drum smack on the opener, & quot;Right On For the Darkness & quot;, you know you're in for an exciting, live-in-the-studio ride, captured with minimal processing and dynamic range intact. A jacket sticker says Ms. Fernandez's voice was recorded without Auto-Tune. The analog recording, on 2 & quot; 30ips tape, produces the smooth, naturally flowing, artifact-free sound analog lovers always hope for but don't often get... & quot; & lt;/b & gt; ; & lt;b & gt;4 Stars for Performance / 5 Stars for Sonics & lt;/b & gt; - Michael Fremer, Stereophile, July 2019 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;There are few recordings you can buy today that equal the sound of Fernandez's Groove Note releases in any parameter you can think of, including deep bass, explosive dynamics, unlimited headroom, expansive soundstaging and spot-on tone color. This time out, backed by a band of top Los Angeles session players, Fernandez sings eleven covers, with something from Michael Jackson ('Billie Jean'), Amy Winehouse ('Back to Black'), Radiohead ('Creep') Curtis Mayfield ('Tripping Out'), Daryl Hall ('Every Time You Go Away') and others, all pop and soul grooves that continue her record of unique interpretations while avoiding the plodding dullness of most female vocalists on audiophile recordings. Watching Claire Denis's Let The Sunshine In recently, in which Juliette Binoche dances to Etta James's 'At Last' (and keeps the album cover on the wall in her home), I was struck by how much of James's energy Vanessa Fernandez brings to her renditions. Nobody is going to mistake the two for each other, but there's an authenticity that both share. That's high praise indeed. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Dennis Davis, The Audio Beat, Music 4/5, Sound 5/5 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; 180g Audiophile Vinyl & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; 45rpm Double LP & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Cut by Bernie Grundman on all analogue tube cutting system using all upgraded and modified vintage Sculley cutting lathes & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Mastered directly from the original 30 ips 1/4 inch analogue master & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Pressed and plated by RTI & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Gatefold jacket & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; 100% Analogue LP & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Absolutely NO Autotune was used in the making of this album & lt;br & gt; & amp;bull; Made in the USA & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Vanessa Fernandez, vocals & lt;br & gt; Tim Pierce, guitars, arrangements & lt;br & gt; Alex Al, bass (ex-Michael Jackson) & lt;br & gt; Victor Indrizzo, drums & lt;br & gt; Jeff Babko, keyboards & lt;br & gt; Luis Conte, percussion & lt;br & gt; Charlie Bisharat, violin & lt;br & gt; Ricky Woodard, tenor saxophone, alto saxophone & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Jacintha The Girl From Bossa Nova 180g 45rpm 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;a href=javascript:; & quot; onclick= & quot;document.location.hash='SS'; & quot; & gt; & lt;img src= & quot;/content/images/mp32.gif & quot; hspace= & quot;10 & quot; align= & quot;left & quot; border= & quot;0 & quot; & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;0000FF & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Click Here for Sound Samples! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt;Featured in Michael Fremer's Heavy Rotation in the November 2004 Issue of Stereophile! & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Jacintha picks up the tempo in her first bossa nova session. Featuring a program of some of the most well known classics of the genre including several Jobim favorites like So Nice, Desafinado, Dindi, Corcovado, as well as less familiar tunes like O Ganso and So Danco Samba, The Girl From Bossa Nova is a striking change of pace for Jacintha that will enthrall all of her fans. With superb solos from tenor Harry Allen and acoustic guitar from John Pisano (ex-Diane Krall), the album is given the supreme finishing touch by the magical playing of Brazilian master percussionist P. D Costa who's recorded and performed with all the legends - Jobim, J Gilberto, Gilberto Gil, Astrid etc. His contribution truly gives the entire album it's authentic bossa nova vibe. And yes, there are a couple of classic Jacintha ballads done bossa style -- This Masquerade and Dindi. A must buy for Jacintha fans and all bossa nova lovers. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Recorded at Oceanway/Record One on February 19th & amp; 20th, 2004 on 2 inch multitrack at 15 ips. Mixed direct to DSD and 2-track 1/4 inch analogue by Joe Harley and Michael Ross at LA-EFX on February 21st, 22nd and 23rd. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Until youve heard this LP, you have no idea just how significant a singer Jacintha truly is. Here, she sounds alive -- in-the-room real. Its almost spooky. And this allows you to get a feel for how she sets up a line, using subtle inflection and/or minor variation of pitch and tempo to make each syllable come alive. She never forces her way, always remembering the gentleness of the Bossa Nova; instead she carefully and confidently navigates her way through with unerring accuracy. She sings these Brazilian songs like a native, a real testament to her talent. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - John Crossett, Soundstage & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Musicians: & lt;br & gt; Jacintha, vocals & lt;br & gt; Bill Cunliffe, piano, arrangements & lt;br & gt; Darek Oleszkiewicz, bass & lt;br & gt; Tim Pleasant, drums & lt;br & gt; Harry Allen, tenor saxophone & lt;br & gt; John Pisano, guitar & lt;br & gt; Paolihno Da Costa, percussion & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Produced by Joe Harley & lt;br & gt; Co-produced by Ying Tan & lt;br & gt; Recorded and Mixed by Michael C.

Jacintha Jacintha Is Her Name Dedicated To Julie London 180g 45rpm 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;a href=javascript:; & quot; onclick= & quot;document.location.hash='SS'; & quot; & gt; & lt;img src= & quot;/content/images/mp32.gif & quot; hspace= & quot;10 & quot; align= & quot;left & quot; border= & quot;0 & quot; & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;0000FF & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Click Here for Sound Samples! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Julie London, the legendary torch song singer and pop balladeer of the 60s and early 70s, passed away in Los Angeles two years ago. The singer who had a huge hit with her version of Cry Me A River still retains a large fan base worldwide and has always been one of Jacintha's favorite singers. It only seems natural that for this, her fourth album for Groove Note, the sensual and talented Jacintha, no mean balladeer herself, has chosen to record and dedicate an album to Julie. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;This album is a sheer joy to listen to from the first note. This may be Jacintha's best album yet. The silky, smooth, and sensuous voice of Jacintha is reproduced with an utterly natural quality, revealing every nuance of her phenomenal intonation, phrasing, breath control, and vocal modulation. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Dave Glackin, Positive Feedback Online & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Inspired mainly by Ms. London's first Liberty album, Julie Is Her Name and its spare guitar and acoustic bass formats, Jacintha and arranger/pianist Bill Cunliffe (recently nominated for a Jazz Arranging Grammy) have come up with a spectacular new record. Using the guitar and bass combo as a basic springboard, the album has taken some of the songs most closely associated with Ms. London e.g. Cry Me A River, and some not so familiar like Light My Fire, and transformed them into the kind of material that Jacintha handles best. Intimate, sexy, seductive. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; A couple of tunes do utilize a trio behind Jacintha but the great majority of the songs stay faithful to the guitar/bass combo and two instrument concept with the additional twist of using some different instruments in the arrangements. (e.g. sax and bass for Willow Weep For Me, sax and piano for Something Cool and piano and bass for Cry Me A River). Jacintha herself delivers some definitive performances including a classic version of Something Cool and her cover of The Doors' Light My Fire. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The very spare instrumental arrangements also lend themselves to extremely high quality audiophile sound and Joe Harley (producer) and Mike Ross (engineer) have outdone themselves on this recording, creating sonics and fidelity that are some of the best ever from Groove Note (or any other label for that matter). & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Musicians: & lt;br & gt; Jacintha, vocals & lt;br & gt; Bill Cunliffe, piano & amp; arrangements & lt;br & gt; Harry Allen, saxophone & lt;br & gt; Larry Bunker, vibes, percussion & lt;br & gt; Ron Eschete, 7 string guitar & lt;br & gt; Holly Hoffmann, flute & lt;br & gt; Darek Olesciewicz, bass & lt;br & gt; Larance Marable, drums & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;a name= & quot;SS & quot; & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/soundsampletitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;260 & quot; height= & quot;27 & quot; & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/selectionstitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;110 & quot; height= & quot;20 & quot; & gt; & lt;table border=0 & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;td & gt; & lt;a href= & quot;http://ed2.cartnear.net/audioclips/grv1014/01.mp3 & quot; target='_blank' & gt; & lt;img src= & quot;/content/images/mp3.gif & quot; border=0 height=15 & gt; & lt;/img & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;/td & gt; & lt;td class='plaintext' & gt; 1.

Jacintha Lush Life 180g LP & 45rpm 180g LP (Vinyl)
& lt;a href=javascript:; & quot; onclick= & quot;document.location.hash='SS'; & quot; & gt; & lt;img src= & quot;/content/images/mp32.gif & quot; hspace= & quot;10 & quot; align= & quot;left & quot; border= & quot;0 & quot; & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;0000FF & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Click Here for Sound Samples! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Lush Life features the silky background of a full string section as well as the superb instrumental artistry of Bill Cunliffe (piano), Anthony Wilson (guitar) and Dmitri Matheny (flugelhorn) in several highlighted solos. With a listener and radio-friendly program that includes Harlem Nocturne, Summertime, The Shadow Of Your Smile, Boulevard Of Broken Dreams, Black Coffee, Manha de Carnaval, and September Song, this recording by the intimate and sensual-voiced Jacintha is one of her best selling albums ever! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;This is Jacintha's third album for Groove Note, and her first with strings. Very popular in her native Singapore, she's beginning to get a worldwide reputation, and this release demonstrates why: her voice is lovely, with clear diction and expressive, naturalistic phrasing. She draws the listener into a warm intimacy from the first track, & quot;Boulevard of Broken Dreams & quot;, a rarely-covered and beautiful song with the perfect rainy-night-in-Paris ambience supplied by Frank Marocco on accordian. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Other highlights include a bluesy but refreshingly non-wailing & quot;Black Coffee & quot; with a fine understated solo by Bill Cunliffe on piano; he's also good on the silky bossa & quot;Manha de Carnaval & quot;, where Anthony Wilson's melodic plucking contrasts nicely with the smoothness of the strings. Another unusual but happy choice, & quot;When the World Was Young & quot;, showcases the superb flugelhorn of Dmitri Matheny that enhances four other tracks as well. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Eight of the ten selections are ballads, and since Jacintha delivers her message straight and serene, the overall feel is quiet, sultry and relaxing. After slow readings of & quot;The Shadow of Your Smile, & quot;Lush Life & quot;, and & quot;September Song & quot;, Joe LaBarbera's brushes and drum accents on & quot;Harlem Nocturne & quot; provide a welcome texture and pulse. The surprise of the CD is the startlingly original introduction to the vastly overplayed & quot;Summertime & quot;, where Bill Cunliffe's string arrangement evokes both Gershwin and the French impressionists. This is excellent late-night listening; the local male vote was & quot;mesmerizing. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Judith Schlesinger & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Jacintha has flawless phrasing, her voice so clear and inviting that the listener is part of every image. This is a collection where the sharing of feeling between singer and listeners is very evident, and enjoyable. & quot;Lush Life & quot; is a showcase collection for the vocals of Jacintha. Her version of & quot;Smile & quot; is one of the most beautiful ever recorded, and a gem of a listening experience. Bill Cunliffe's piano stylings are a perfect background for the voice of Jacintha. & quot; & lt;/b & gt;- Lee Prosser, jazzreview.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Jacintha has one of the most intimate jazz voices in the contemporary jazz scene. A lovely, powerhouse of a recording, & quot;Lush Life & quot; is a definite winner and entertainment at its best. Jacintha will touch your heart, mind, and soul with her beautiful jazz singing. & quot; & lt;/b & gt;- Lee Prosser, jazzreview.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;This is excellent late-night listening... mesmerizing & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Judith Schlesinger, All Music Guide & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;...her delicate vocals come thru as though she was sitting in your lap. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Audiophile Audition, March 2002 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;br & gt; & lt;/b & gt; Bonus 12 & quot; 45rpm 180g LP with 3 tracks & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Musicians: & lt;br & gt; Jacintha, vocals & lt;br & gt; Peggy Baldwin, celli & lt;br & gt; Rudy Stein, celli & lt;br & gt; Susan Chatman, violin & lt;br & gt; Norman Hughes, violin & lt;br & gt; Gina Kronstadt, violin & lt;br & gt; John Wittenberg, violin & lt;br & gt; Renita Koven, viola & lt;br & gt; Virginia Frazier, viola & lt;br & gt; Amy Shulman, harp & lt;br & gt; Frank Marocco, accordion & lt;br & gt; Dmitri Matheny, flugelhorn & lt;br & gt; Anthony Wilson, guitar & lt;br & gt; Darek Oles, bass & lt;br & gt; Bill Cunliffe, piano & lt;br & gt; Jo La Barbera, drums & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & lt;a name= & quot;SS & quot; & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/soundsampletitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;260 & quot; height= & quot;27 & quot; & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/selectionstitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;110 & quot; height= & quot;20 & quot; & gt; & lt;table border=0 & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;td & gt; & lt;a href= & quot;http://ed2.cartnear.net/audioclips/grv1011/01.mp3 & quot; target='_blank' & gt; & lt;img src= & quot;/content/images/mp3.gif & quot; border=0 height=15 & gt; & lt;/img & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;/td & gt; & lt;td class='plaintext' & gt; 1.

Cut by Bernie Grundman on All Analogue Tube Cutting System! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Groove Note Records is proud to announce the release of Vanessa Fernandez's album Use Me. This album of audiophile quality covers of soul and R & amp;B classics from the '70s and '80s was done in an & quot;unplugged & quot; style with acoustic instruments and arrangements used on all of the tracks. Vocals are tremendously dynamic (no compression or limiting used), with superb presence and detail for all other instruments including the drum set. & lt;b & gt;Resolution is of the highest order & lt;/b & gt; and this is an LP that rewards for both musical performance and outstanding audio quality. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;...the all-analog pedigree is evident. The sound is smooth, dynamic and big, with massive weight and presence. I listened first to the SACD, thinking that it would be hard to improve upon, but the RTI-pressed 45rpm LPs offered even greater resolution and naturalness, neither to the detriment of everything the SACD does so well. Use Me is demo material in either format, but if your analog rig is up to digging everything out of the groove, you won't hear a better-sounding record this year or next. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Marc Mickelson, The Audio Beat, 4/5 Music, 5/5 Sound! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Tasty as is the back up band and are the outstanding acoustic arrangements, Ms. Fernandez steals the show with a voice that is as unlikely as her cover photo would have you thinking & quot;funky black chick & quot;...While the cover shot makes her look somewhat academic and perhaps reserved, trust me, there's no governor on her voice or the rawness of the emotions she pours forth. When appropriate she dials it down to a simmer as on a great cover of Al Kooper's BS & amp;T classic & quot;More Than You'll Ever Know & quot;. She even covers the somewhat obscure John Deacon- Freddie Mercury track & quot;Cool Cat & quot; from Queen's Hot Space album...Ms. Fernandez's performance on this slow simmer will have to convince you that she's the real deal...Sometimes these & quot;audiophile & quot; productions meet your sonic expectations but disappoint in other ways. In this case, Ms. Fernandez does not disappoint. & quot; & lt;/b & gt;-Michael Fremer, analogplanet.com, Music 10/11, Sound 11/11 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Fernandez explodes on the scene with a captivating set of performances covering everything from Barry White to Curtis Mayfield to Al Kooper. Sounding more like she hails from Nashville or Detroit than Singapore, Fernandez easily escapes the 'female vocalist' genre - that dreaded music played at shows to make an audio system sound sweet without disclosing its weaknesses. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;Recorded with a crack group of Los Angeles studio musicians at Oceanway Recording, Use Me combines a truly outstanding set of performances with some of the best sound you could hope for. Recorded analogue to 30 ips 1/4 inch tape and mastered by Bernie Grundman, Al Green's & quot;Simply Beautiful & quot; as sung by Fernandez creates the illusion of having the master tape at home. Jaw-dropping sound. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - HiFi+, 10/10 Recording, 10/10 Music & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;What a refreshing breath of R & amp;B air; to hear a Singaporean singer cover Curtis Mayfield & amp; Marvin Gaye. What a wonderful change from the usual jazz singers covering the American Songbooks... The sound quality of this album is truly reference quality ...a must purchase! & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Philip O'Hanlon, www.thehighnote.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;The recording is exemplary high resolution with excellent instrumental detail. Fernandezs voice is vibrant and not overwhelmed by low-compression. This is an auspicious debut! & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Robbie Gerson, www.audaud.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Think Aretha Franklin mixed with Amy Winehouse and you get Vanessa Fernandez! Her strong, soulful voice is deeply rooted in R & amp;B but is equally versatile in pop, alternative or electronic music. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - www.19sixtyfive.com.sg & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The album introduces and throws the spotlight on the fantastic voice of Singaporean vocalist Vanessa Fernandez. The song selection includes tunes by Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield, Isaac Hayes, Earth Wind & amp; Fire, Bill Withers, Al Green and others. Top musicians playing on the album include the great bassist Lee Sklar (Phil Collins, Rita Coolidge, Bonnie Raitt, Linda Ronstadt, Lyle Lovett), acoustic guitars Tim Pierce (Bruce Springsteen, Michael Jackson, Celine Dion, Roger Waters, Tina Turner, Eric Clapton), electric piano Jim Cox (Willie Nelson, BB King, Aaron Neville, Ringo Starr, Lyle Lovett), drums Victor Indrizzo (Macy Grey, Marianne Faithfull, Meatloaf, Emmylou Harris), percussion Rafael Padillo (Julio Iglesias, Celine Dion, Pavarotti, Gloria Estefan), and harmonica Stanley Behrens (Willie Dixon, Canned Heat, Ruth Brown). & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; This is a great group of top LA musicians backing superlative performances by a great new singer!!! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Test Pressings of the album were demo-ed extensively at the Munich High End Show as well as at THE Show in Newport Beach and reaction has been overwhelmingly positive. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; There are many records and labels who declare themselves to be of & lt;b & gt; & quot;audiophile quality & quot; & lt;/b & gt;.

Jacintha Here's To Ben A Vocal Tribute To Ben Webster 180g 45rpm 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;a href=javascript:; & quot; onclick= & quot;document.location.hash='SS'; & quot; & gt; & lt;img src= & quot;/content/images/mp32.gif & quot; hspace= & quot;10 & quot; align= & quot;left & quot; border= & quot;0 & quot; & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;0000FF & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt;Click Here for Sound Samples! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/font & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Already a tremendous figure in her native Singapore, Jacintha has been turning heads and ears in this country as well. With an outstanding singing style on par with the greats, Jacintha will enrapture you in a perpetual state of musical bliss! (We're not ones for overstatement either.) & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Jacintha debuts in the U.S. with a tribute to the legendary tenor saxophone player: Ben Webster. The songs have been specially selected to reflect this premise, i.e. they are mostly great vocal standards and/or ballads that have been recorded by Webster many times and are thus associated with his particular style and name. Some of these songs like Stardust, How Long Has This Been Going On, Georgia and Our Love is Here to Stay, Over The Rainbow are Webster classics. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; This limited edition 45rpm was recorded at the famous OceanWay Recording Studios in Los Angeles, this recording is all-analogue, direct to two-track. The recording was made on an ATR-100 tape machine with BASF-900 1/4 high resolution tape running at 30ips. Only vintage microphones were used including the Neumann M-49 tube microphone set-up for Jacinthas voice. The other microphones used (for the musicians) included Neumann M-50 and U-47. The recording and mastering cabling for this session was supplied by Audioquest (Lapis). Mastered by Bernie Grundman direct from the original analogue masters on his highly modified and customized tube driven Sculley cutting lathe. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Musicians: & lt;br & gt; Jacintha, vocals & lt;br & gt; Teddy Edwards, tenor saxophone & lt;br & gt; Kei Akagi, piano & lt;br & gt; Darek Oles, bass & lt;br & gt; Larance Marable, drums & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;a name= & quot;SS & quot; & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/soundsampletitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;260 & quot; height= & quot;27 & quot; & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;img border= & quot;0 & quot; src= & quot;/content/images/selectionstitle.jpg & quot; width= & quot;110 & quot; height= & quot;20 & quot; & gt; & lt;table border=0 & gt; & lt;tr & gt; & lt;td & gt; & lt;a href= & quot;http://ed2.cartnear.net/audioclips/grvcd1001/01.mp3 & quot; target='_blank' & gt; & lt;img src= & quot;/content/images/mp3.gif & quot; border=0 height=15 & gt; & lt;/img & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;/td & gt; & lt;td class='plaintext' & gt; 1.

Tim Pierces guitars are equally well-served in a recording by Michael C. Ross thats nothing short of stupendously transparent, dynamic and natural... Ill put it to you this way: if you play this record really loud and you dont enjoy what you hear, blame your system! & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Michael Fremer, www.analogplanet, 9/11 Music, 11/11 Sound & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Brilliant rhythm guitar and solos from arranger-guitarist Tim Pierce including an extended electric guitar solo on the rock version of & quot;Whole Lotta Love & quot; as well as killer vintage slide work on & quot;When The Levee Breaks; & quot; awesome drumming and majestic kick drum work from Jim Keltner on & quot;Kashmir, & quot; & quot;Babe & quot; and & quot;Immigrant Song; & quot; driving electric bass lines from Chris Chaney on many of the tracks; memorable B3 and Wurlitzer fills and runs from keyboardist Jim Cox; audacious violin solos and fills from Charlie Bisharat on & quot;Kashmir & quot; and & quot;Immigrant Song; & quot; and, last but in no way least, stirring percussion backing from the great Luis Conte on & quot;When The Levee Breaks, & quot; & quot;Black Dog & quot; and & quot;Whole Lotta Love & quot; (acoustic). And throughout every song the magnificent incomparable vocals of Vanessa. Yes - the album was recorded all analogue multi track but several of the vocal tracks are the complete original live track used without any overdubs or fixes. The vocal performance on & quot;Babe I'm Gonna Leave You & quot; is gonna leave some listeners breathless!! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Engineered by Michael C. Ross, mixing of the all analogue album, & quot;When the Levee Breaks & quot; by Vanessa Fernandez, was completed at United Recordings (formerly known as Oceanway Recordings). The mixing was done in the legendary studio A with it's great sounding custom built mixing board. The album was mixed down to 1/4 inch 30 ips tape and delivered to Bernie Grundman Mastering where the mastering and lacquer cutting was done. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; All the above elements combined to create memorable and immensely satisfying versions of several well known Led Zeppelin songs and the results are in - an album of epic musical and spectacular sonic quality!! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Much of the album, spread onto three 180g 45rpm records, is acoustic, but songs like & quot;Kashmir & quot; with Jim Keltner on drums, rocks out big time. These are fresh arrangements by guitarist Tim Pierce whose playing credits include session work with Bruce Springsteen, Bon Jovi, Johnny Van Zant, Meat Loaf, Patty Smith, Joe Cocker, Michael Jackson, Joan Armatrading, Madonna, Tina Turner, Rod Stewart, Roger Waters, Eric Clapton, The Doobie Brothers, Elton John, Alice Cooper and others. The instrumental performances add new luster to the old chestnuts. Old fans will enjoy the new musical environment and some non-Led Zep fans will be won over. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;Most importantly, Ms. Fernandez, a long time Led Zep fan, has the vocal chops and the sensibility to wrap her cords tightly around the lyrics and wring new meaning from them. From what I got to hear later on a lacquer, the performances and the sonics will drop your jaws and maybe even your pants! & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Michael Fremer, analogplanet.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;This album boasts top-notch production quality, including an all-analog recording, mastering by Bernie Grundman, and an all-star cast of studio musicians. Engineer Michael C. Ross claim that the LPwhich boasts remarkably clean, transparent, and realistic soundechoes the golden age of audio seems reasonable, but in theory these pristinely-recorded and mostly-acoustic performances move into dangerous territory by reshaping some old-school raunch n roll. Actually, though, thats part of the funtake a huge, billowing sound, scale it down, have a woman sing some very male-centric songs, and see what happens. The best cuts succeed for different reasons. Drummer Jim Keltner and bassist Chris Chaney lay down a killer groove on Kashmir, where violinist Charlie Bisharat adds a wild streak; he also brings some edginess to Immigrant Song. Instead of swagger, Fernandez uses sly seduction to state her case on Black Dog. At the beginning of Babe Im Gonna Leave You she sounds emotionally drained, like shes been waiting all night to break the news to her lover. As the song progresses she gains strength but not conviction, as if the person shes really trying (and failing) to convince is herselfa fine reading of a great song. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Jeff Wilson, & lt;i & gt;The Absolute Sound & lt;/i & gt;, December 2016, 3.5/5 Music, 5/5 Sonics & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;As with its predecessor, When the Levee Breaks is all analog; engineer Michael Ross recorded to 30ips 1/4 & quot; tape. In every sonic sense, it is an extraordinary recording, with vast dynamic range along with inherent smoothness, weight and presence. All of this applies to the hybrid SACD, but the the RTI-pressed 45rpm LPs are even better -- more resolved and natural -- and they include a couple of extra cuts not on the SACD. This is demo material in either format, but I haven't heard an LP that sounds as good since Use Me. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;On its face, When the Levee Breaks has some huge obstacles to overcome, especially among audiophiles who are familiar with great-sounding recordings of questionable music worth. Because of this, its achievement is even more impressive. It defies expectations in so many ways; you'll want to play it for friends and family, in order to show off your system, and you'll want to listen to it yourself when only some Zeppelin in vivid state-of-the-art sound will do. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Marc Mickelson, The Audio Beat, 4/5 Music, 5/5 Sound!!! & lt;a href= & quot;http://www.theaudiobeat.com/music/vanessa_fernandez_levee_breaks_sacd_lp.htm & quot; & gt; & lt;b & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;#0000FF & quot; & gt;Read more! & lt;/font & gt; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; First 2500 Copies Numbered! & lt;br & gt; AAA 100% All Analogue Recording! & lt;br & gt; 180g Audiophile Vinyl & lt;br & gt; 45rpm Triple LP & lt;br & gt; Triple Gatefold & lt;br & gt; Cut by Bernie Grundman & lt;br & gt; Mastered directly from the original 30 ips 1/4 inch analogue master & lt;br & gt; Features two exclusive LP only tracks & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Vanessa Fernandez, vocals & lt;br & gt; Tim Pierce, guitars & lt;br & gt; Jim Keltner, drums & lt;br & gt; Chris Chaney, bass & lt;br & gt; Jim Cox, keyboards & lt;br & gt; Charlie Bisharat, violin & lt;br & gt; Luis Conte, percussion & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; LP 1 & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

The top 10 finalist in a couple of regional
vocal talent shows in her late teens, Aisyah was recently based in and recording in Malaysia for several years before returning to Singapore to pursue her own independent singing and songwriting career. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Groove Note is honored to have been chosen by Aisyah for her very first fully independent recording session which will also represent her first ever releases on 45 rpm Audiophile Vinyl LP and Hybrid Stereo SACD. The album was tracked and mixed on Protools
HD at 24/96 by & lt;strong & gt;Roger Montejano & lt;/strong & gt;, a top studio engineer from Madrid, in late November and December 2020. Pearls will be mastered by & lt;strong & gt;Bernie Grundman & lt;/strong & gt; of BGM in Hollywood, CA, who will also cut the lacquers for the double
45 rpm LP. & lt;/p & gt;
& lt;p & gt;Working with a top guitarist-arranger (Sebastian Ho), Aisyah presents a mellow groove, audiophile friendly selection of contemporary and old school R & amp;B hits and other favorites. The song selection runs the musical gamut, featuring covers of recent hits
by Billie Eilish and Lianne La Havas all the way to a couple of Lou Reed and Bob Dylan classics from the '70s along with further tasty selections by the likes of Chris Isaak, Sade and Roberta Flack. (Note: the music program on the album also includes
a couple of superb audiophile mixes, bonus alternate takes and a stunning and dramatic rendition of the well known standard & quot;Smile & quot;.) & lt;/p & gt;
