Elvis Presley – Blue Hawaii – MoFi 180g 45RPM 2LP Vinyl
MASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES AND PRESSED AT RTI
1/4″ / 15 IPS analog master to DSD 256 to analog console to lathe
The old adage about Elvis Presley is that his soundtrack work never held a candle next to his studio albums. Though true for a majority of his film-related outings, the traditional notion is forever disproved by his Blue Hawaii set. Originally released in 1961 in support of the film in which he starred, the triple-platinum LP spent nearly five months at the top of the Billboard album charts; outsold his two prior studio efforts; and ultimately, remains the second-best-selling soundtrack of the musical-dominant 1960s. And now, it has received sonic treatment befitting rock royalty.
Petteri Iivonen: J.S. Bach Partita No. 2 in D Minor 180g 45RPM Vinyl
After living a number of years in the United States, GRAMMY® and ICMA Nominated Finnish violinist Petteri Iivonen returned to Europe where he became concertmaster of the Finnish Opera orchestra in Helsinki before moving to Paris to serve as concertmaster for the Paris Opera. Petteri’s ability to play in many styles with sincerity and his natural lyrical facility with his instrument made him the ideal candidate to work with luminary conductors such as Esa-Pekka Salonen in Helsinki and now Gustavo Dudamel at Paris Opera.
The Young Rascals – Groovin’ – Mofi – Limited Edition/ 45RPM 180G Mono Vinyl
Mastered From The Original Master Tapes For Supreme Sound
Simultaneously elevated and bypassed by the artistically prolific year in which it was released, the Young Rascals’ Groovin’ remains high-water mark of a collective Rolling Stone boldly proclaimed “the blackest white group of all” in 1970. Home to three Top 10 singles and a diverse array of pop music in step with the era’s exploratory creativity, the set belongs aside the Beatles’ Sgt. Peppers’ Lonely Hearts Club Band, Love’s Forever Changes, Jefferson Airplane’s Surrealistic Pillow, and 1967’s other pioneering recordings. Particularly now that it boasts definitive sonics.
Cyndi Lauper – True Colors – Mofi Vinyl
Grammy-Nominated Double-Platinum Set Includes Internationally Recognized Title Track Plus “What’s Going On” And “Change Of Heart”
Cyndi Lauper could’ve easily played up the independent wild-child pop persona she established on her breakthrough debut until the trend faded. Instead, on her superb sophomore effort, the charismatic artist opts for a more mature and creatively ambitious program, inviting big-name guests and pursuing deeper instrumental textures on a set that goes far beyond the well-known title track. True Colors is a vocal tour de force, an expressive statement on which Lauper showcases singing steeped in emotion, phrasing, and earnestness.
Van Halen – Women and Children First – MoFi Ultradisc 180g 45RPM 2LP Box Set
AVAILABLE NOW!
MASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES AND PRESSED ON MOFI SUPERVINYL FOR A DEFINITIVE LISTENING EXPERIENCE Van Halen vocalist David Lee Roth says it all on the second song of the band’s third album – and third consecutive smash in less than three years time. “Everybody wants some!,” he declares before immediately querying, “Baby, how ’bout, you?” Roth and the rest of Van Halen already knew the answer. The quartet further confirmed its status as America’s leading rock band and principal party starters on Women and Children First while heading in harder, heavier directions with thrilling songs that Rolling Stone scribe David Fricke rightly deemed “works of high-volume art.” Mastered from the original analog tapes, pressed on MoFi SuperVinyl, and strictly limited and numbered, Mobile Fidelity’s UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP set of the triple-platinum effort ensures demand for the 1980 record has never been higher.
Van Halen – Fair Warning – MoFi Ultradisc 180g 45RPM 2LP Box Set
AVAILABLE TO PRE-ORDER
MASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES AND PRESSED ON MOFI SUPERVINYL The song titles on Van Halen’s aptly titled Fair Warning don’t lie. The likes of “Unchained,” “Mean Street,” “Push Comes to Shove,” “One Foot Out the Door,” and more indicate the mood the band channels on its 1981 record. It’s the nastiest, darkest, and fiercest album of the group’s storied career. Guitarist Eddie Van Halen uses the forceful arrangements as a playground for his seemingly unlimited arsenal. Supported by a crack rhythm section and an inspired David Lee Roth, he performs with an almost impossible combination of punk-like intensity, technical finesse, lyrical fluidity, and unbridled emotion. For the fourth time in four years, Van Halen threw down the gauntlet to all challengers and emerged victorious. Mastered from the original analog tapes, pressed on MoFi SuperVinyl, and strictly limited and numbered, Mobile Fidelity’s UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP set sounds the alarm with unfettered clarity, dynamics, and immediacy.
