Analogue Productions Prestige Stereo Set

25 Prestige reissue titles to delight and astound jazz buffs!

Rare preowned subscription 25 title 200-gram numbered LP set!

One of the last collections of its kind! Sold as a complete set only!

Here it is. One of the last of the original 25 title Prestige Stereo Sets from Analogue Productions. These are the most audiophile-sounding Rudy Van Gelder recordings ever made with the Pestige Stereo Series. All are 200-gram, numbered titles, mastered AAA from the original analog master tapes by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio, and pressed at our own Quality Record Pressings plant.

And there's more: Original tip-on jacket facsimiles with the original thick cardboard stock, from Stoughton Printing. The sound, the pressing quality, everything surpasses the original Prestige LPs.

So, let's jump in the time machine and head back to the 1950s and ‘60s, when jazz was king and the world was awash in the sounds of these masterpieces.Founded in 1949 by Bob Weinstock, Prestige Records would become one of the most renowned jazz labels of all time. Weinstock began the label after he'd opened a record store next door to New York City's Metropole Jazz Club. The musicians who performed at Metropole began frequenting Weistock's store, and he soon got the idea to start recording them. He first called the label New Jazz but changed the name to Prestige the following year.

The legendary roster of Prestige musicians rivals that of any jazz label before or since and includes Miles Davis, Gil Evans, Eric Dolphy, John Coltrane, Hank Mobley, Jackie McLean, Sonny Rollins, Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis and Tommy Flanagan. Weinstock is famous - or infamous — for refusing to pay his artists for their rehearsal time. He instead captured a more live, unplanned sort of groove, different than other jazz labels of the day. Certainly, history has appreciated hearing artists that would go on to become legends playing in a looser, off-the-cuff manner.

Rudy Van Gelder handled recording engineering duties for most of the Prestige run, another fact that has positioned Prestige so well in the history of jazz and collectible records.
