The Doors – The Soft Parade – Vinyl LP
The Doors – The Soft Parade Vinyl LP: Psychedelic Rock with Orchestral Ambition, Pressed to Analogue Perfection
A bold departure from their earlier sound, The Soft Parade sees The Doors expanding their sonic palette with lush orchestration, layered arrangements, and poetic ambition. Featuring standout tracks like Touch Me, Wild Child, and Wishful Sinful, this 1969 album blends Jim Morrison’s signature baritone with jazz, brass, and baroque pop textures.
This vinyl pressing delivers the depth and dynamic range the album deserves. Morrison’s vocals are full-bodied and front-and-centre, while the complex arrangements unfold with clarity and spatial nuance—perfect for high-end analogue systems that reward detail and warmth.
Whether you're rediscovering its layered brilliance or completing your collection, The Soft Parade on vinyl is a vivid, immersive listen—offering a different, yet essential, chapter in The Doors’ iconic catalogue.

The Duke Jordan Trio So Nice Duke XRCD24
Superior Audiophile Sound on XRCD24!
Jazz pianist Duke Jordan is joined here by Jesper Lundgaard on bass and Aage Tanggaard on drums for a session recorded live at Nagaya on June 14, 1982. Jordan was born in New York and raised in Brooklyn. An imaginative and gifted pianist, Jordan was a regular member of Charlie Parker's so-called "classic quintet" (194748), featuring Miles Davis. He participated in Parker's Dial sessions in late 1947 that produced "Dewey Square," "Bongo Bop," "Bird of Paradise," and the ballad "Embraceable You." These performances are featured on Charlie Parker on Dial.
The Flying Burrito Bros “The Gilded Palace of Sin” – Intervention Records 180g Vinyl
Is this the album that made country cool? Former Byrds Gram Parsons and Chris Hillman picked up where they left off with Sweetheart of the Rodeo with this stunning masterpiece of a debut album by The Flying Burrito Bros. While Parsons had already pushed rock in a country direction during his brief stint with The Byrds and The International Submarine Band, The Gilded Palace of Sin is why the Burritos are widely viewed as the inventors of country rock. Indeed with this album, Hillman and Parsons carved a substantial place in music history as one of the most influential albums and bands of all time.
The Gil Evans Orchestra – Out Of The Cool 180g Analogue Productions Vinyl
"The album is worth getting for the 15 minutes of 'La Nevada' alone but the rest is equally great including the cinematic side closer 'Where Flamingoes Fly.' ... The sonics here with a cut from the master tape by Ryan K. Smith (yes, the master tape- I have a current photo that for some reason I can't share with you) are incredibly transparent, spacious and flat-out thrilling ... and somewhat brighter and less mid-band rich than the long out of print Alto-Analogue edition Bernie Grundman cut in 1997. Both are worth having for different sonic reasons and if you have a clean original Rudy Van Gelder cut (A-4) you may think you are set, but that cut is less spacious, somewhat dynamically compressed, has the RVG lower bass roll-off and is definitely less transparent — not that it's bad and some people do like the more 'in your face' excitement. This one's here now though! Do not miss it!" — Music = 10/11; Sound = 10/11 - Michael Fremer, AnalogPlanet.com.

The Ornette Coleman Double Quartet: Free Jazz Speakers Corner 180g Vinyl
The term 'free jazz' was already in existence – but it had a quite different meaning, namely jazz without paying for an entrance ticket. The album "Free Jazz", however, was intended to lend its name to a quite different style of jazz. 'Free' playing – now this meant that no one was bound to conventions, you could let your imagination run loose. Free jazz gave one the chance to find new rules for every new composition. And it was to be the greatest boost to innovation in the world of jazz. Ornette Coleman’s album from December 1960 stands at the beginning of the free jazz era like a massive portal.
The Oscar Peterson Trio – West Side Story – Verve 200g 45 RPM Vinyl
One of the first Broadway musical scores to be overtly jazz-influenced was Leonard Bernstein’s West Side Story, a tale of rival street gangs in the inner city. In 1962, pianist Oscar Peterson put his light-swing signature on the already popular score, making it, in the words of one critic, “a delight to hear again” and earning him a Grammy nomination.
Originally released in 1962

The Thelonious Monk Quartet – Straight No Chaser 180g Audiophile Vinyl
180-GRAM 33RPM 2LP SET
This mid-period masterwork from jazz piano’s most uncommon voice find Monk and his quartet ( Charlie Rouse on tenor, Ben Riley on drums and Larry Gales on bass) exploring every texture, tone and melodic turn of seven expansive tracks. This group was subtle, mature and confident, easily supporting Monk’s more idiosyncratic side-tracks (check out the solo on “Locomotive” or the restless exposition on “Japanese Folk Song”) while allowing listeners freedom to move through or contemplate all the sublime subtexts Monk conjures from the endless well of his inspiration.
