A rare opportunity to hear the origins of 50's blues and early rock 'n roll captured using the very finest analog and vintage mics and gear available. This is the only item in our catalog that I didn't personally record...but it more than meets the definition of high quality sound and presentation and therefore belongs right up front. Includes several mixes and two music videos from the film of the same name.
features:
- Recorded completely analog with vintage gear
- Compatible with DVD-Audio and DVD-Video players
- Alternate 5.1 Mixes
- PCM Stereo 96 kHz/24 Bit Mix
- DTS "Stage" Mix
"...this project's appeal is in how well it captures the period's feel without sounding at all derivative, forced, or canned. It's loaded with talents that, for one reason or another, never got their names on the marquee the way Professor Longhair and Fats Domino did...Sonics are spectacular and incredibly clean...The stereo presentation is beautiful, but surround enthusiasts should opt for the 5.1 'Audience' mix - wonderfully balance, huge imaging, and nice use of the rear channels." - Bob Gendron, The Absolute Sound, October/November 2003
