Rebecca Pidgeon - The Raven

Product No: ACRC 46

Category: 180 Gram Vinyl Record
Label: Chesky

Beautiful recording, noisy pressing

4 Stars
Posted Thursday, March 27, 2025 by RC The record was beautifully recorded and mastered. Nice soundstage, good instrument separation for an 33 1/3 LP. The vocals are beautiful as are the piano and strings.

Unfortunately, my copy has too much surface noise for a record advertised as “audiophile.” Way too much. (I did a thorough cleaning before listening.) On another site, I read that the 2x45 pressing by QRP was also disappointingly noisy. That’s shocking to me, because I have over 100 LPs pressed by QRP and every one of them is pristine, dead quiet.

As for this Chesky pressing, despite the noise, I have no regrets about the purchase. It cost me $36, not $60 like the 2x45. And, for me, the positives outweigh the one negative.

What about the music? It’s lovely and her vocals are lovely. But taste is subjective. It’s always a good idea to stream a record before you buy it.

Beautiful album

Posted Wednesday, February 7, 2024 by Anonymous The clarity of this album is unbelievable! The guitar and piano plays so beautiful. If you like Diana Krall this record is for you. Very quiet vinyl. Smooth playing all the way through.

Just amazing!

5 Stars
Posted Thursday, December 28, 2023 by RS What an amazing release of one of my favorite albums. Lenard Cohen’s songwriting along with Jennifer Warnes voice is just magic. I do not have any other Vinyl versions to compare, but I cannot see this can be any better. Highly recommended!

It (Really) Sounds Incredible!

5 Stars
Posted Thursday, September 7, 2023 by mugen808 This album is very nice, but I am not rating the music. It is easy to listen to it on streaming platforms and make your own opinion about it.

What I am rating here instead, is the sound of this release vs other formats. It is incredibly superior to anything else, including DSD.

The range is huge, especially bass. It feels like other format were cut in frequencies. The sound is so full and so dense, the gain is naturally high, it sounds extremelly raw and vivid. It sounds like live performance.

For anyone who doesn't own this type of tapes already, i guess you are wondering if you should buy it considering the price. There is no absolute answer. What I can say is that, if that kind of money is no issue for you, then get it! It is no rip off, it has a very specific character nothing else can achieve and sounds superior by far to any other format.

If you do not have that type of budget, don't torture yourself tho. Until you listen to this, CD is great!

Fantastic release!!!

5 Stars
Posted Saturday, January 28, 2023 by joey1127 I originally had the Classic Records release which was decent. In 2019, I bought the AP 45RPM release and fell in love with it, the best version to date. However, my copy got damaged last year and had to be replaced so here I am, getting another copy and it's just as perfect as the one I got back in 2019. Good to see consistent quality from AP. This version blows the Classic Records release out the water.

Is it just my copy?

2 Stars
Posted Wednesday, April 21, 2021 by Brad I’ve come to expect a great deal from Analogue Productions, and they always deliver. Unfortunately, my copy of the 4 disc 45rpm cut of this album is crippled with crackle. Each of the 8 sides have heavy crackle on the lead out, which usually starts within the final song on the side. There are quite a few of the songs that play as advertised, and remind me what this could have been. I have between 100 and 200 AP albums in my library, and they are all great. Except this, which after one play found its place in my garage sale pile.

Buy it for the instrumentation, not the vocals.

Posted Saturday, October 17, 2020 by Anonymous The instrumentation is recorded great and sounds very natural, it's her vocals that I have a big problem with. Her vocals sound like nails on a chalk board.

Great Vocals by Eva

5 Stars
Posted Monday, July 20, 2020 by James Cordova Got this box set in July 2020. Was familiar with a pervious CD that she had out and liked it. This box set has very silent vinyl, something I was worried about. Her vocals are amazing and the recording is first rate- I highly recommend you buy this before it is gone! This is way better than CD quality. Oh great band playing with Eva and normally I do not like live recordings but this is the rare exception, really enjoying this!

Posted Friday, July 5, 2019 by Anonymous She is the usual great vocalist, the recording quality is excellent, however this time her music and the words are depressing, not recommended if you are having a bad day.

Just one word - WOW!

5 Stars
Posted Thursday, March 16, 2017 by Birdland The mastering of this album by Analogue Productions is just amazing. I did not listen to the CD layer. The SACD layer is just so real. A lot of dynamics and smooth in a good way. This is best I've ever heard this album in a digital medium.

5 Stars
Posted Tuesday, October 11, 2016 by audiofan Exceedingly well-recorded, the latest release from Norah harkens back to her jazz/pop debut. The LPs sonics are warm, intimate, and engaging, and the copy I have was pressed on flat, quiet vinyl without any surface noise whatsoever. Highly recommended.

An acoustic delight!

5 Stars
Posted Monday, August 22, 2016 by joey1127 This is a MUST HAVE for any Eva fan. The fidelity of this pressing is outstanding and the quality is equally outstanding. If you have other Eva recordings or are new to Eva, this is one that you don't want to pass up. An acoustic delight!

Worth The Wait...

5 Stars
Posted Thursday, April 14, 2016 by Craig Smith This album was my intro to Diana Krall when it was released, and has been in my top ten albums since then. I'm very happy with this pressing. The music speaks for itself. Worth The Wait...YES!

Lucinda Williams - Down Where The Spirit Meets The Bone

Product No: AHW20 011

Category: Vinyl Record
Label: Highway 20 Records

Highly Recommended!

5 Stars
Posted Tuesday, July 21, 2015 by Drunken Angel All 3 vinyl pressings were flat & quiet. Not sure if this was a analog or digital master but whoever did the mastering/mix did an excellent job. Tight powerful bass with a little warmth, clean extended highs without being too hot & the vocal/guitar placement was perfect. So the sonics are 5 Stars and the music is also 5 stars. This is "Car Wheels" good. There are 6-7 gems/songs that are 10X more powerful on vinyl than mp3/CD. For a good time - drop the needle on "Walk On" and turn the volume knob to 1 O'clock. Highly Recommended.

Great Music & Poor Vinyl Quality

Posted Saturday, March 28, 2015 by Anonymous I've purchased this record twice. Both times the record was warped. Can't trust this label for a third try. Music is a 5 but the pressing is a 2.

Definitive!

5 Stars
Posted Tuesday, February 24, 2015 by ATLTRAV I have not heard the AP 33 or original pressing but I can't imagine either sound this good! Very dynamic with silky smooth vocals. Definitely in my top 5! Hard pressed "no pun intended" to find smoother or more elegant recording. Don't hesitate on this one!
