Coming Soon - Pre-Order Now
Blockbuster Alanis Morissette Album Transcends Generations: 17-Million-Selling Jagged Little Pill Features Five Hit Singles, Including “You Oughta Know” and “Ironic”
1995 Record Presented in Audiophile Sound for the First Time for Its 30th Anniversary: Mobile Fidelity’s UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP Box Set Is Strictly Limited to 4,000 Numbered Copies
1/2" / 30 IPS analog master to DSD 256 to analog console to lathe When Alanis Morissette took direct aim at an ex who wronged her on the eviscerating “You Oughta Know” in 1995, everything about the Top 10 song communicated it wasn’t the usual narrative about love gone south. Or the typical wounded singer wallowing in self pity. Morissette, and both the lead single from and her entire American major-label debut  — the profoundly personal Jagged Little Pill  — represented a sea change. They kickstarted a movement, one whose impact continues to echo throughout the mainstream nearly three decades later.

£45.00
NOW BACK IN STOCK

Ike & Tina Turner – Feel Good – Pure Pleasure Records 180g Vinyl LP

£35.95
“Feel Good” is quintessentially ’70s – the fuzztoned funk practically conjures up platform shoes and mile-wide collars – but it doesn’t belong to any one sound, it casually draws from Southern soul, James Brown funk, black pride, “Superfly” style and juke joint R&B, a sound that is uniquely identified with Ike & Tina. And while this contains no flat-out classics like “Nutbush City Limits” or “Proud Mary” as an album “Feel Good” undoubtedly ranks among their very best: it’s a non-stop party.

Whatever you decide, you owe yourself at least a half dozen!” Winner of a 2012 Positive Feedback Online Writers’ Choice Award – Danny Kaey, Positive Feedback Online, November/December 2011

Chantal Chamberland – Dripping Indigo – Evosound Records 180g 2LP Coloured Vinyl

£75.00
Smooth as a dry martini and equally intoxicating, Chantal Chamberland’s “Dripping Indigo” cements her role as one of the best interpreters of classic song book favorites.

Stone Temple Pilots – Tiny Music… Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop – Mofi 180g 45 RPM 2LP

£73.00
Available to Pre-Order

Stone Temple Pilots Go Glam and Get Psychedelic on Tiny Music… Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop: Includes “Big Bang Baby” and “Trippin’ on a Hole in a Paper Heart"

Experience the Double-Platinum 1996 Album in Audiophile Sound for the First Time: Mobile Fidelity’s Numbered-Edition 180g 45RPM 2LP Set Is Sourced from the Original Analog Tapes
1/2” / 30 IPS analog master to DSD 256 to analog console to lathe
If great art, as many believe, is inherently polarizing, then the Stone Temple Pilots’ Tiny Music… Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop easily ranks as the California-based band’s finest album. Simultaneously celebrated and castigated upon release in spring 1996, the group’s third full-length finds vocalist Scott Weiland and company expanding their “grunge” palette with a smart blend of glam rock, psychedelia, jangle pop, and other related styles. Having benefited from long-view reassessments that shed the biases and meanness of initial criticisms, the double-platinum effort is now largely and rightly seen as a creative masterwork. All the more reason why it deserves reference-grade production.
