Pressed by The Pallas Group, Germany. & lt;br & gt;Mastered by Bernie Grundman from the Original Analog Master Tapes! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt;Joni's dynamic and poetic voice sounds flawless on this 45rpm 180g Audiophile Recording from ORG! & lt;/font & gt; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Canadian Joni Mitchell is more than just another singer-songwriter: she was one of the most brave and pioneering female artists of the 20th century. Fiercely independent of outside pressures, she had no hesitation in taking artistic risks even when commercial success was at stake. Mostly, her risks paid off, as her relentless creativity kept fans loyal and won fulsome praise from music journalists. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Although the original pressing was a solid recording its no match for this 45-rpm, 180-gram, double-LP from ORG. Bernie Grundmans remastering has smoothly unlocked the air, treble bloom, and taut bass too often hidden on the original and the dimensionality and image focus are now superb. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Neil Gader, & lt;i & gt;The Absolute Sound & lt;/i & gt;, February 2013, Music 4.5/5, Sonics 4/5 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Pressed at Pallas on a pair of 45rpm discs, the ORG version, mastered by Bernie Grundman (who also performed mastering duties on Hejira as well as Mitchells most commercially successful release, Court and Spark) is positively brilliant. ORG has made a reputation for vinyl excellence, but this could be their finest achievement yet. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Jeff Dorgay, TONEAudio, October 2010 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;In the original, where Mitchells voice often disappears in the mix, shes now out front and center, with a creaminess that Ive never experienced before. Theres just more space everywhere; more bass weight and a huge soundstage in all three dimensions. All of the harshness in the original is gone. The additional space in the recording now lets you really hear the genius in the arrangements; if you thought you knew this record before, you are in for a number of sonic treats upon listening to the ORG pressing. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Jeff Dorgay, TONEAudio, October 2010 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;They [ORG] did it right, even at 45 rpm, the grooves only go half way into the vinyl surface, so there will be no worries of inner groove distortion on this record! ...So, if this is one of your favorite Joni records, you owe it to yourself to purchase this one, its pure sonic perfection. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Jeff Dorgay, TONEAudio, October 2010 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;(With Wild Things Run Fast) Joni Mitchell achieved more of a balance between her pop abilities and her jazz aspirations, meanwhile rediscovering a more direct, emotional lyric approach. The result was her best album since the mid-'70s. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - William Ruhlmann, Allmusic.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Bernie Grundman's remastering has smoothly unlocked the air, treble bloom, and taut bass too often hidden on the original - and the dimensionality and image focus are now superb. & quot; & lt;/b & gt;- Neil Gader, & lt;i & gt;The Absolute Sound & lt;/i & gt;, May/June 2011 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; After developing a reputation around New York as a folk singer to watch, she made an international breakthrough with the 1970 single & quot;Big Yellow Taxi & quot;, which featured the famous lyric & quot;They paved paradise and put up a parking lot & quot;. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Wild Things Run Fast is Joni Mitchell's eleventh studio and her first for Geffen Records. Released in 1982, it represents her departure from jazz to a more '80s pop sound. The more rhythmic nature of the music on this album was influenced by Steely Dan, Talking Heads and The Police. Featured artists include Wayne Shorter, James Taylor and Lionel Richie. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; This long time audiophile favorite is a Stereophile Record to Die For and also a Michael Fremer Recommended Recording!

Records, a stunning oasis of content in a sea of musical fluff, brought folk music of consciousness and concern to the top of the charts. Fueled by the enormous hits & quot;Lemon Tree & quot; and & quot;If I Had a Hammer & quot; (which enjoyed a second life as an anthem of the Civil Rights Movement), the album went straight to #1, remaining in the Billboard Top 10 for 10 months and in the Top 20 for two years on the way to a remarkable three-and-a-half year run on the album chart. This success marked the beginning of an incredibly fertile and influential time for the group, and for the contemporary urban folk tradition they personified. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; This was the group's biggest selling studio album, eventually certified Double Platinum by the RIAA for US sales of more than 2 million copies. At the Grammy Awards of 1963, their recording of & quot;If I Had a Hammer & quot; won the Best Folk Recording and Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal Grammies. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Bernie Grundman cut from the original master tape and the transparency and clarity are a dead giveaway to that.

Piano is captured particularly well, preserving its timbre and delicate ambience. The 180-gram LPs, pressed at Pallas in Germany, are exceptionally quiet, exposing the texture of Hartman's voice and delicate dynamic gradations of Coltrane's achingly beautiful playing all the better. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Marc Mickelson, theaudiobeat.com, Music 4/5, Sound 4/5 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Hartmans timing and phrasing are exquisite and he plays it close to the vest... & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Michael Fremer, musicangle.com, Music 8/11, Sound 8/11 & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;br & gt; & lt;/b & gt; 180g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; 45rpm & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Bernie Grundman & lt;br & gt; Gatefold Jacket & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Musicians: & lt;br & gt; Johnny Hartman, vocals & lt;br & gt; Hank Jones, piano & lt;br & gt; Milt Hinton, bass & lt;br & gt; Elvin Jones, drums & lt;br & gt; Kenny Burrell, guitar & lt;br & gt; Jim Hall, guitar & lt;br & gt; Illinois Jacquet, tenor sax & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

At this point in musical history the folk music revival was in full flower. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The lead-off single of Bob Dylan's & quot;Blowin' in the Wind & quot; became world famous when it sold a phenomenal three hundred thousand copies in the first week of release.

They moved to Memphis during the early fifties, and as a struggling young truck driver, Elvis cut some demos at Sun Studios as a gift for his beloved mother Gladys. These initial songs, of which he had only paid a few dollars to record, would become the catalyst that would kick-start the beginnings of a soon to be worldwide superstar unlike the world has ever known. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The folks at RCA Victor knew that this young fellow named Elvis was destined for superstardom. They quickly bought out his contract and signed the legend to a long-term deal, and his first RCA single Heartbreak Hotel forever etched The King Of Rock And Roll trademark to his name. He would eventually become the most successful solo artist of all time! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; For the remainder of the 1950s, Elvis Presley would release several more hit albums, smash singles and movies before spending time in the Army. Ever proving that he was indeed on top of his game, RCA Victor awarded their superstar artist and his fans with the Kings first greatest hits collection Elvis Golden Records. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Like the two volumes before it, Elvis' Golden Records Vol. 3 was a groundbreaking release in that no one in rock & amp; roll up to that point, other than Elvis, had ever legitimately earned a second greatest hits compilation, much less a third. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Golden Records Vol. 3 contains eight Top Five A-sides along with four B-sides which also made the Top 40. Five of those A-sides-- & quot;Stuck on You, & quot; & quot;It's Now or Never, & quot; & quot;Are You Lonesome Tonight?, & quot; & quot;Surrender, & quot; and & quot;Good Luck Charm & quot;--went to #1. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Out of all the records Elvis Presley made, this is one of the absolute audiophile classics among his catalog. And the songs every one of them are worth inclusion in any collection. Don't miss a true classic. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;With most artists, by the time you get to the third greatest hits album you're scraping the bottom of the barrel but not with Elvis Presley. In fact, it could easily be argued that Volume 3 was the & quot;sweet spot & quot; among the original RCA Elvis's greatest hits releases. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - analogplanet, Music 8/11.

Bailey, Rudy Clark and Ken Williams which was nominated for a Grammy Award in 1973 for Best R & amp;B Song. & amp;nbsp; Neville's version hit the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart reaching #8. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;A big multi-track production with Neville backed variously by The Grace Episcopal Choir, The Skywalker Symphony Orchestra and a host of stars including Linda Ronstadt, Rita Coolidge, Bob Seger, Ry Cooder and Dr. John ...with the awesome sound on this record, this is a big winner. Originally mastered by Bernie Grundman for A & amp;M, the improvements in Grundman's mastering facilities over the last 20 years shine through on this two LP 45 RPM reissue. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Dennis Davis, HiFi+ Magaine, 10/10 Recording, 9/10 Music & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;The production yields a great deal of eye and ear candy (eye in the sense that it's all laid out with surgical precision on a wide, deep and ultra-dynamic soundstage) but it's Neville's vocals that produce most of the fireworks. His voice was then peaking with suppleness and firm control, the trademarked warble/yodel used sparingly. The vocal recording is magnificent like everything else placed before the microphones...

Bernie Grundman's mastering job is equally accomplished and the sound is excellent. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Hi-Fi+ Magazine & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; For a brief period at the end of the '60s and the start of the '70s, Blood, Sweat & amp; Tears, which fused a rock & amp; roll rhythm section to a horn section, held out the promise of a jazz-rock fusion that could storm the pop charts. The band was organized in New York in 1967 out of the remnants of the Blues Project by keyboard player/singer Al Kooper and guitarist Steve Katz) of that group and saxophonist Fred Lipsius. The rhythm section consisted of bassist Jim Fielder and drummer Bobby Colomby, and the horn section was filled out by trumpeters Randy Brecker and Jerry Weiss and trombonist Dick Halligan. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; This eight-piece band signed to Columbia Records and recorded BS & amp;T's debut album, Child Is Father to the Man, which was released in February 1968. Cofounder Kooper then departed, and the group was reorganized. Singer David Clayton-Thomas was added, Halligan moved to the keyboards, and trumpeters Chuck Winfield and Lew Soloff replaced Brecker and Weiss, with Jerry Hyman being added on trombone. This nine-piece unit, working with producer James William Guercio, made BS & amp;T's self-titled second album, released in January 1969. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;Blood, Sweat & amp; Tears & quot; was a runaway hit, spawning three gold-selling Top Ten singles, & quot;You've Made Me So Very Happy, & quot; & quot;Spinning Wheel, & quot; and & quot;And When I Die, & quot; selling three million copies and winning the Grammy Award for Album of the Year. It was also BS & amp;T's highwater mark. Guercio left to work on a similar concept with Chicago Transit Authority, and BS & amp;T increasingly became a backup group for Clayton-Thomas. Nevertheless, the third album, Blood, Sweat & amp; Tears 3 (1970), and the fourth, Blood, Sweat & amp; Tears 4 (1971), were substantial hits. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;a name= & quot;SS & quot; & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;A classical feeling is imparted by the opening and closing tracks, which are adapted from one of Erik Saties Trois Gymnopedies by arranger Dick Halligan. They bookend this albumone of the most original in pop music evermost successfully. This has always seemed to me one of the best-designed and performed of all the 60s rock efforts, and its great to have it in the ultimate fidelity of this newly-remastered 45 rpm version... In comparison with the Columbia SACD, the vinyl 45s win out. They have much more deep bass end and a warmer overall feeling than the SACD. On the 45s, there is absolutely no surface noise or distortion, except where intended on some of the instruments... ORG has established itself as the Rolls-Royce of the audiophile vinyl reissue genre. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - John Henry, audaud.com, 5 Stars! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;ORG amazes me with its ability to capture everything from the minutest minutiae to the rich blend of brass and/or flutes.

During his career, Waxman received 12 Oscar nominations, winning in consecutive years for Sunset Boulevard and A Place in the Sun. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Sunset Boulevard, the 1950 Billy Wilder film, was scored by Franz Waxman. His theme for Norma Desmond was based on tango music, inspired by her having danced the tango with Rudolph Valentino. This style was contrasted with Joe Gillis's bebop theme. Waxman also used distorted arrangements of popular film-music styles from the 1920s and 1930s to suggest Norma Desmond's state of mind. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The American Film Institute ranked Waxman's score for Sunset Boulevard #16 on their list of the greatest film scores. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Charles Gerhard conducts the London Symphony Orchestra. Recorded by the legendary Kenneth Wilkinson at Kingsway Hall in London. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; A series of original orchestral film scores by various greats from the Golden Age of orchestral soundtracks - Bernstein, Herrmann, Tiomkin, Waxman, etc. These may well be the best sounding recordings of orchestral music ever made.

Featuring the timeless classic, & quot;Only The Lonely & quot;, Roy's distinctive baritone and unique vocal style resounds magnificently across all four sides of this Audiophile 45rpm reissue from ORG! Pressed on High Quality 180 Gram Double Vinyl at Gotta Groove Records! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Roy Orbison's first album recorded for Monument was released in 1961 and features & quot;Come Back To me (My Love) & quot; and & quot;Only The Lonely & quot;. The third single for Fred Fosters Monument label was Only the Lonely, which became the first song that truly probed the frightening potential of Roy Orbisons voice, and established his uniqueness. The song peaked at number 2 on the Billboard Charts and became number 1 in the UK. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; A few things contributed to Roy Orbisons success. The songs, the production, and the performance were key factors. The songs were completely original in structure, sound and style. Totally innovative compositions, that didnt exist until then. It became a style. Fred Foster really went for quality instead of quantity. He was willing to splash money on a session without any guarantee of payback. He was also willing to take a chance on a sound that did not conform to accepted market norms. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Roy Orbison was one of the few hit-makers to hold his ground, and even to increase his popularity in the wake of the so-called British Invasion. He did it by maintaining a matchless quality of releases, with an original variety of content, structure, tempo and rhythm. He was also an extremely subtle song craftsman, making changes during the course of a session, or between sessions, adding the final commercial gloss to a song. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Not only a breakthrough for Roy Orbison... but also for rock & amp; roll. Up to that point, apart from Elvis Presley -- who was in a class by himself -- few white rock & amp; rollers had even tried to make as bold a use of the LP as what we hear on this record. Orbison, his collaborator Joe Melson, and producer Fred Foster turned the singer's debut long-player into a huge canvas for a sound that combined rock & amp; roll's beat, Nashville's countrypolitan sound, and the singer's unique multi-octave range and operatic intensity into something unique in music. The single & quot;Only the Lonely & quot; may have been the most accessible and commercial side of this new sound, but the whole album was packed with great moments and different permutations of that sound... & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - allmusic.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Numbered, Limited Edition & lt;br & gt; Deluxe Laminated Double Gatefold Jacket & lt;br & gt; Only 2500 Numbered Limited Edition Copies Worldwide! & lt;br & gt; Audiophile 180g 45rpm Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Bernie Grundman from the Original Analog Master Tapes! & lt;br & gt; Pressed at Gotta Groove & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; LP 1 - Side 1: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Bernie Grundman's mastering job is equally accomplished and the sound is excellent. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Hi-Fi+ Magazine & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; For a brief period at the end of the '60s and the start of the '70s, Blood, Sweat & amp; Tears, which fused a rock & amp; roll rhythm section to a horn section, held out the promise of a jazz-rock fusion that could storm the pop charts. The band was organized in New York in 1967 out of the remnants of the Blues Project by keyboard player/singer Al Kooper and guitarist Steve Katz) of that group and saxophonist Fred Lipsius. The rhythm section consisted of bassist Jim Fielder and drummer Bobby Colomby, and the horn section was filled out by trumpeters Randy Brecker and Jerry Weiss and trombonist Dick Halligan. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; This eight-piece band signed to Columbia Records and recorded BS & amp;T's debut album, Child Is Father to the Man, which was released in February 1968. Cofounder Kooper then departed, and the group was reorganized. Singer David Clayton-Thomas was added, Halligan moved to the keyboards, and trumpeters Chuck Winfield and Lew Soloff replaced Brecker and Weiss, with Jerry Hyman being added on trombone. This nine-piece unit, working with producer James William Guercio, made BS & amp;T's self-titled second album, released in January 1969. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;Blood, Sweat & amp; Tears & quot; was a runaway hit, spawning three gold-selling Top Ten singles, & quot;You've Made Me So Very Happy, & quot; & quot;Spinning Wheel, & quot; and & quot;And When I Die, & quot; selling three million copies and winning the Grammy Award for Album of the Year. It was also BS & amp;T's highwater mark. Guercio left to work on a similar concept with Chicago Transit Authority, and BS & amp;T increasingly became a backup group for Clayton-Thomas. Nevertheless, the third album, Blood, Sweat & amp; Tears 3 (1970), and the fourth, Blood, Sweat & amp; Tears 4 (1971), were substantial hits. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;a name= & quot;SS & quot; & gt; & lt;/a & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;A classical feeling is imparted by the opening and closing tracks, which are adapted from one of Erik Saties Trois Gymnopedies by arranger Dick Halligan. They bookend this albumone of the most original in pop music evermost successfully. This has always seemed to me one of the best-designed and performed of all the 60s rock efforts, and its great to have it in the ultimate fidelity of this newly-remastered 45 rpm version... In comparison with the Columbia SACD, the vinyl 45s win out. They have much more deep bass end and a warmer overall feeling than the SACD. On the 45s, there is absolutely no surface noise or distortion, except where intended on some of the instruments...

American blues musician Taj Mahal, was born Henry Fredericks in New York in 1942. His music is a mix of blues, Caribbean styles, bluegrass and the music of Hawaii, where he lived for a number of years. Originally released in 1972, Recycling The Blues & amp; Other Related Stuff contains seven live tracks and four studio recordings. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;ORG Recordings Group re-mastered 45 rpm vinyl is superior to most digital reproductions. Pressed at RTI and mastered by Bernie Grundman from the original analogue master tapes, every nuanced detail, including the rarely used kalimba is pristinely clear. The tones of the steel guitar are rich in texture. Audiophiles and Taj Mahal enthusiasts will want to add Recycling The Blues & amp; Other Related Stuff to their collections. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Robbie Gerson, www.audaud.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Guitar/piano playing rural blues revivalist Taj Mahal was quite a rarity in the late 1960s - a young black man who accurately revived classic country blues for a new generation of listeners. Mahal took an archival interest in folk blues while joining in during the early '60s. On this album, the first seven tracks were recorded live at the Fillmore West and the rest at Columbia's San Francisco studios with backup from the Pointer Sisters. The title Recycling the Blues & amp; Other Related Stuff certainly sums up the album quite well - that's exactly what Taj Mahal has been doing for several years by this point! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Backed by the unknown (at the time, anyway) Pointer Sisters, Taj reinvents Robert Johnsons Sweet Home Chicago and makes it his own. The gospel-laden backup vocals are exultant. The Pointers resonate like soulful Andrews Sisters with their three-part harmonies on Texas Woman Blues. & lt;/b & gt; - Robbie Gerson, www.audaud.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Arguably his Best Album of All-Time! Warm, Earthy Down Home Soul! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;...Im convinced that someone at ORG knows how to pick em. As a 45rpm record with four sides instead of two, Recycling contains inspired performances matched with impressive sonics on every side. The live cuts do a fine job of capturing the timbre of the instruments and the energy of a concert, especially when Taj rips into a National steel-bodied guitar solo on Bound to Love Me Some and tears into the banjo on Ricochet. Like all the studio cuts, the classic Cakewalk into Town is improved, with a crisp and remarkably realistic sound. Both songs with the Pointer Sisters are a delight, and the upright bass on Texas Woman Blues startlingly clear and sharp. At times I wish Gitano Negro had higher recording levels, but again the timbre of the steel-bodied guitar comes through nicely. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Jeff Wilson, & lt;i & gt;The Absolute Sound & lt;/i & gt;, May/June 2012, 3.5/5 Music, 4/5 Sonics & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Numbered Deluxe Laminated Double Gatefold Jackets & lt;br & gt; Only 2500 Numbered Limited Edition Copies Worldwide! & lt;br & gt; Audiophile 180g, 45rpm Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; Pressed at RTI & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Bernie Grundman from the Original Analog Master Tapes! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Taj Mahal, steel-bodied guitar, kalimba, banjo, conch, hand claps, upright bass & lt;br & gt; Howard Johnson, hand claps, tuba & lt;br & gt; The Pointer Sisters, background vocals & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; LP1 - Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

A gloriously warmhearted and energetic performance, Maag's interpretation has set the recorded standard for this work! The recording captures wonderful chemistry between Peter Maag and the London Symphony Orchestra. It's Mendelssohn performance at its best, which is saying a lot! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Peter Maag conducts a delightfully fresh & quot;Scottish & quot; Symphony, keeping tempos moderately brisk, textures lean, and phrasing intuitive - that is, everything flows easily and logically. ...Decca's 1960 recording of the symphony is full and clear with plenty of depth & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Victor Carr, classicstoday.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;The results are a dazzling example of what vinyl still has to offer, if prepared with care that mass-produced records do not receive.

Marianne Faithfull Strange Weather Numbered Limited Edition 180g 45rpm 2LP (Vinyl)
& lt;b & gt; & lt;font color= & quot;#FF0000 & quot; & gt;Numbered, Limited Edition! Pressed at RTI! & lt;br & gt;Mastered by Bernie Grundman from the Original Analog Master Tapes! & lt;/font & gt; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Strange Weather was Marianne Faithfull's first complete studio album following her recovery from a 17-year drug addiction. In her earlier recording career, many people were won over by her soft, feathery voice. Unfortunately, Faithfull's public image became tainted during her relationship with Mick Jagger in the late 1960s and drugs took over her life until the mid-1980s. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The 1987 release contains a mix of rock, blues and cabaret and includes her re-recorded hit, & quot;As Tears Go By & quot; which proved to be even more poignant the second time around. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;ORGs masterful 45 rpm vinyl continue to make the case that high end analog audio technology is comparable or superior to its digital counterpart. The organic coloration of the instrumentation is showcased by this format. Subtle touches with a clarinet, flute or horn are soft and remain in the background. The unique throaty vocals have a natural resonance. Strange Weather captures an underappreciated singer at her best. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Robbie Gerson, 4 1/2 Stars!!!, www.audaud.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;First released in 1987 (following a sixteen year battle with heroin addiction), Strange Weather is a dark eclectic group of songs that combine blues, jazz and Kurt Weill-esque ambiance. Supported by a cadre of topnotch musicians, the album evokes a surreal exotic flavor that blends with the idiosyncratic vocals of Faithfull. Side One opens with a gypsy-tinged take on the Dubin/Warren standard, Boulevard Of Broken Dreams. Veteran guitarist, Bill Frisel teams with violinist Michael Levine to create a haunting café-flavored line that is framed nicely around the deep Marlene Dietrich alto voice of Faithfull. The effect is haunting, reminiscent of French (Edith Piaf) cabaet music. The same chemistry permeates Yesterdays as Frisell adds jazzy melancholy. Small touches, like flute (Chris Hunter) and string accompaniment build a texture that surrounds the tune. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Robbie Gerson, 4 1/2 Stars!!!, www.audaud.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;In portions of this album, the fabulous Marianne Faithfull takes up where Lotte Lenya and Marlene Dietrich leave off. & amp;nbsp; In fact, she might well be called the 'Rhythm and Blue Angel'. & amp;nbsp; And if she is not, it is surely because her extraordinary range places her far beyond any such limitation. & amp;nbsp; A single instance may suffice: being an old 'Billie-head' myself, I found it presumptuous in the extreme that someone else, anyone else, should attempt a rendition of her fables & quot;Yesterdays & quot;. & amp;nbsp; Imagine my astonished delight then, upon hearing Ms. Faithfull's fantastic version - actually bringing to the song a new dimension of throat and soul. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;However, why be content with a single instance? Her renditions of the black spiritual & quot;Sign of Judgement & quot; and Leadbelly's remarkable a cappella & quot;I Ain't Goin' Down to the Well No More & quot; are little short of miraculous in their affirmation of this singer's phenomenal scope and depth. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; And one must not overlook the exquisitely haunting Kurt Weill / Budapest / Cafe / gypsy-violin magic in & quot;Boulevard of Broken Dreams & quot;, Tom Waits' and Kathleen Brennan's & quot;Strange Weather & quot; - and, of course, the blues masterpiece, & quot;Love, Life, and Money & quot;, featuring th epiano artistry of the legendary Mac Rebennack. & amp;nbsp; Rounding out this outstanding collection are the campy/surreal & quot;Penthouse Serenade & quot; (with its & quot;hinges on chimneys for stars to go by & quot;), Doc Pomus' and Mac Rebennack's 'Hello Stranger & quot;, and the lyrically wistful & quot;As Tears Go By & quot;. & amp;nbsp; It is most fitting that this final selection be included; it may be recalled that it was this very song which the 17-year old Marianne first recorded, and which established her overnight, among rockers and cognoscenti alike, as the super talent she remains. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Terry Southern, liner notes & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Ferlas impeccable engineering and mixing tastes compliment the instrumentation by putting everything on a spacious, deep and somewhat dark and mysterious soundstage. Instruments glide and hover on the deep stage and have just the right amount of body to be solid, yet sufficient lightness of being to feel as if any of them could simply drift away at any moment. Bill Frisells guitar floats delicately in an echo balloon.Of course the centerpiece is Faithfulls deepened, coarsened voice and while the older tunes are well-served and her take of Yesterdays is arguably equal to Billie Holidays, its her performance on the Waits title song that lingers long after the stylus has reached side fours lead out groove. The recording quality is superb and the double 45 format perfectly suits the material: you might not want to consume this in greater quantities than a few tunes at a time. & quot; & lt;/b & gt;- Michael Fremer, musicangle.com, Music 10, Sound 10! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Numbered Deluxe Laminated Double Gatefold Jackets & lt;br & gt; Only 2500 Numbered Limited Edition Copies Worldwide! & lt;br & gt; 180g Vinyl & lt;br & gt; 45rpm & lt;br & gt; Pressed at RTI & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Bernie Grundman from the Original Analog Master Tapes! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Musicians: & lt;br & gt; Marianne Faithfull, vocals & lt;br & gt; Bill Frisell, guitar & lt;br & gt; Michael Levine, violin & lt;br & gt; Sharon Freeman, piano & lt;br & gt; Fernando Saunders, bass & lt;br & gt; Chris Hunter, flute, alto saxophone & lt;br & gt; Steve Slagile, alto saxophone & lt;br & gt; Robert Quine, guitar & lt;br & gt; J.T.

The Pointers resonate like soulful Andrews Sisters with their three-part harmonies on Texas Woman Blues. & lt;/b & gt; - Robbie Gerson, www.audaud.com & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Arguably his Best Album of All-Time! Warm, Earthy Down Home Soul! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;...Im convinced that someone at ORG knows how to pick em. As a 45rpm record with four sides instead of two, Recycling contains inspired performances matched with impressive sonics on every side. The live cuts do a fine job of capturing the timbre of the instruments and the energy of a concert, especially when Taj rips into a National steel-bodied guitar solo on Bound to Love Me Some and tears into the banjo on Ricochet. Like all the studio cuts, the classic Cakewalk into Town is improved, with a crisp and remarkably realistic sound. Both songs with the Pointer Sisters are a delight, and the upright bass on Texas Woman Blues startlingly clear and sharp. At times I wish Gitano Negro had higher recording levels, but again the timbre of the steel-bodied guitar comes through nicely. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Jeff Wilson, & lt;i & gt;The Absolute Sound & lt;/i & gt;, May/June 2012, 3.5/5 Music, 4/5 Sonics & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Numbered Deluxe Laminated Double Gatefold Jackets & lt;br & gt; Only 2500 Numbered Limited Edition Copies Worldwide! & lt;br & gt; Audiophile 180g, 45rpm Vinyl & lt;br & gt; Double LP & lt;br & gt; Pressed at RTI & lt;br & gt; Mastered by Bernie Grundman from the Original Analog Master Tapes! & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Taj Mahal, steel-bodied guitar, kalimba, banjo, conch, hand claps, upright bass & lt;br & gt; Howard Johnson, hand claps, tuba & lt;br & gt; The Pointer Sisters, background vocals & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; LP1 - Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.
