Alan Parsons – I Robot – MoFi Ultradisc 180g 45RPM 2LP Box Set

£180.00
AVAILABLE TO PRE-ORDER
MASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES: ULTRADISC ONE-STEP SET IS THE ULTIMATE ANALOG VERSION OF 1977 AUDIOPHILE STANDARD Audiophiles don’t need any introduction to the Alan Parsons Project’s I Robot. Engineered by Parsons after he performed the same duties on Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon, the 1977 record reigns as a disc whose taut bass, crisp highs, clean production, and seemingly limitless dynamic range are matched only by the sensational prog-rock fare helmed by the keyboardist. Not surprisingly, it’s been issued myriad times. Can it be improved? Relish Mobile Fidelity’s stupendous UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP box set and the question becomes irrelevant.

Billy Joel – Turnstiles Mofi SACD

£42.00
Experience The Orchestral Sweep, Ravishing Poignancy Like Never Before
By 1976, Billy Joel had proven his merit as an auteur of California-based singer-songwriter pop-rock. On Turnstiles, the legend focuses his attention on more ambitious matters: Making an album whose scope and range dwarf that of his previous work, and shot his star into the stratosphere. Encompassing everything from urgent rock to soft pop and saloon fare, Turnstiles is a classic of major proportions. We have gone back to the original master tapes to present Joel's encompassing music the way it was always intended to be experienced: Intimate, detailed, expressive, warm. The record's widescreen sonics are at last properly cinematic, flush with colors, textures, and atmosphere.

Bob Dylan – Nashville Skyline 180g 45RPM 2LP Mofi Vinyl

£90.00

Hyper-Detailed 45RPM Version Allows You to Experience Dylan’s All-Time Cleanest Vocal Performances Like Never Before: Soft, Smooth Croon a Dramatic Change from His Past

For an artist whose career is flush with enigma, myth, and disguise, Nashville Skylinestill surprises more than almost any other Bob Dylan move more than four decades after its original release. Distinguished from every other Dylan album by virtue of the smooth vocal performances and simple ease, the 1969 record witnesses the icon’s full-on foray into country and trailblazing of the country-rock movement that followed. Cozy, charming, and warm, the rustic set remains for many hardcore fans the Bard’s most enjoyable effort. And most inimitable. The result of quitting smoking, Dylan’s voice is in pristine shape, nearly unidentifiable from the nasal wheeze and folk accents displayed on prior records.

Bruce Springsteen – Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J. – 180g 33RPM 1 LP SuperVinyl LP Box Set

£149.00
NOW AVAILABLE.
Ultradisc One-Step Box Set Of Bruce Springsteen's 1973 Debut Plays With Audiophile Sound: Limited To 7,500 Numbered Copies
1/4" / 15 IPS analog master to DSD 256 to analog console to lathe
Teeming with identifiable characters, youthful romanticism, vivid narratives, and sophisticated arrangements, Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J. is a personal postcard from the heart, soul, and mind of a rock ’n’ roll lifer bent on discovering his world and what lays beyond it. The 1973 album establishes many of the signature themes and sounds Bruce Springsteen would embrace throughout his unparalleled career. No wonder a majority of the songs — “Blinded by the Light,” “Lost in the Flood,” “Spirit in the Night” included — remain staples of the New Jersey native’s fabled concerts.

Carly Simon – No Secrets – Mofi 180g 45RPM 2LP Box Set

£73.00
IN STOCK
Carly Simon Turns Candid: Platinum-Certified No Secrets Features an All-Star Cast and the No. 1 Hit “You’re So Vain,” Ranked by Rolling Stone Among the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time 1972 Album Available on 180g 45RPM 2LP for the First Time: Strictly Limited to 3,000 Numbered Copies, Mobile Fidelity's Reissue Plays with Wide Soundstages and Balanced Tones 1/4” / 15 IPS Dolby A analog master to DSD 256 to analog console to lathe
Carly Simon’s No. 1 smash “You’re So Vain” lingers as one of the most clever and famous songs ever recorded. The subject of mass speculation ever since its release, soon after which it occupied the top spot on multiple Billboard charts for weeks, the anthem kept a captive public guessing at the identity of its smug subject for decades. The question surrounding the protagonist’s identity remained perhaps the only mystery on the otherwise sexually open and autobiographically daring No Secrets, Simon’s commercial breakthrough and ‘70s singer-songwriter staple.
