T. Rex – Electric Warrior – Numbered Limited Edition 180g 45rpm Vinyl 2LP
NOW IN STOCK
Mastered on Mobile Fidelity's State-of-the-Art Mastering System: 180g 45RPM Vinyl 2LP Set Presents the 1971 Record's Reverb, Colors, Tones, and String Arrangements in Full-Tilt Glory
Bang a gong and get it on. At once sardonic, flamboyant, and trashy, T. Rex's uncommonly unique Electric Warrior catapulted leader Marc Bolan to stardom, triggered an ongoing fascination with glam rock, and launched a movement that soon involved David Bowie, Roxy Music, Mott the Hoople, and more. Yet none of those namesake artists ever released a record that out-glammed, out-innuendoed, out-thrusted, or out-camped Electric Warrior – named the 160th Greatest Album of All Time by Rolling Stone and included in the celebrated book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.

Chantal Chamberland – Dripping Indigo – Evosound Records 180g 2LP Coloured Vinyl
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.
Two factors set Chamberland’s music apart from the pack. First, the arrangements are slow and sexy relying on a small jazz ensemble for backing (piano, sax, bass light rhythm).
Secondly is her luscious voice, which caresses the listener with a breathy purr throughout the album.
