First Impressions Music presents Decca Legacy Volume I-IV, a musical account of the Golden Age of Decca stereo recordings. The set includes four Ultra-High Definition 32-Bit CDs replicated with the industry-leading Pure Reflection process and authenticated with Pit Art anti-piracy technology.
These four CDs featuring 42 superlative tracks are selected from the foremost albums of Decca's 100 year history, highlighting the label's "Golden Age", remastered by Grammy Award-winning engineers. The set is housed in a 7 1/4" x 7 1/4" x 3/4" beautifully illustrated booklet that details the history of these recordings.
The name "Decca" dates back to a portable gramophone called the "Decca Dulcephone," patented in 1914 by musical instrument makers Barnett Samuel & Sons. The name "Decca" was coined by Wilfred S. Samuel, by merging the word "Mecca" with the initial "D" of both the "Dulcet" logo and their trademarked "Dulcephone." Barnett Samuel & Sons was eventually renamed The Decca Gramophone Company Ltd., prior to being sold to former stockbroker Edward Lewis in 1929.
During the 1930s, Decca promoted itself as "The Supreme Record Company." This claim was truly borne out when Decca began recording Full Frequency Range Recordings (FFRR) in 1944, subsequently graduating to Full Frequency Stereophonic Sound (FFSS) in 1958.
