Category: 45 RPM Vinyl Record

Simply astounding!

5 Stars
Posted Thursday, March 7, 2024 by Errol Fouquet What an absolute triumph! These songs have never sounded so good. This will be one of those "sit down a listen to this" records that I will put on for my friends when they want to hear how good vinyl can be. I've never been let down by Analogue Productions yet, but this release is just so magical for me. I've heard these songs many times before, in many formats, but I've never heard it all sound so good. Amazing!!!


Ray Charles - Ray Charles Product No: AAPA 007-45

Category: 45 RPM Vinyl Record
Label: Analogue Productions (Atlantic 75 Series)

As perfect as this will ever sound.

5 Stars
Posted Tuesday, January 16, 2024 by Derek Duncan How do you make a legend sound great, let AP tackle it . The mastering, pressing and packaging is second to none like every release so far in the Atlantic 75 series. I’m stunned at how clear and detailed it sounds. Obviously recordings from 1957 and below are not going to sound modern, but honestly they sound very close. I feel like I am there in the studio witnessing this recording as it turns.

Stunningly good album

Posted Wednesday, January 10, 2024 by Nick Amazing talent on an extraordinarily well done reissue! Analogue Productions does it again with this album, sonically stunning in every way...worth every penny. Otis was one of a kind and this does his music justice!

Label: Mobile Fidelity

The best it's ever sounded

5 Stars
Posted Tuesday, December 27, 2022 by Dylan B Absolutely killer! I know the scandal surrounding MOFI complicates this title's release a little, but this pressing is absolutely stunning. So many incredible nuances and details I've never even heard, even after hearing all of these tracks countless times throughout my life. This is most likely the finest Thriller pressing ever to be pressed, highly HIGHLY recommended.


Al Green - Call Me Product No: AHIR 32077
Available: InStock
Category: 180 Gram Vinyl Record
Label: Speakers Corner (Hi)

Excellent

5 Stars
Posted Wednesday, December 7, 2022 by Anonymous Having all the good Al Green original pressings, except this one, I took a chance, and paid for a pressing that might sound better than the original. So glad I did. My system is under 5k, but my modified Klipsch Chorus speakers are very revealing of bad and mediocre pressings. What I hear from this one is fabulous. Very impressed with Speakers Corner pressings.

Posted Sunday, June 12, 2022 by Pittsburgh This record kicks funky butt! Maybe not the very best recording ever, but so what?! It's still quite good and almost every track is a head bopping, toe tapping good time. Pax!

Label: Columbia

Nice recording and pretty quiet vinyl

4 Stars
Posted Tuesday, April 13, 2021 by Brian VanPelt The pressing is pretty nice, but I did notice some inner groove distortion on the very last song. I though the dynamic range was pretty strong, but the soundstage seemed a little shrunken, in that I didn't feel that the music extended all the way from speaker-to-speaker.

The vinyl was fairly quiet. In fact, I don't remember any loud noises (crackles or pops) anywhere on the record. But there are some light clicks and such throughout the album, not bothersome. Overall, a clean record.

The recording seems pretty good, but there's nothing unusually great about it. The album is well-produced, and any singing seems to come from the middle of the back wall.


Bill Withers - Bill Withers' Greatest Hits Product No: ALEG 67414
Available: InStock
Category: Vinyl Record
Label: Legacy

Very Clean and Smooth

5 Stars
Posted Sunday, April 11, 2021 by Brian VanPelt The music is super smooth, and the vinyl is super clean. There are essentially no surface noises to speak of - aside from the occasional light click here and there. There is nothing especially expensive about this record, but the vinyl sounds as good as any I've heard.

If that's not enough, the music is almost perfectly presented. For example, during the Ain't No Sunshine song, it starts off with Withers' voice centered/high, with only a guitar for a little bit, but then the rest of the band floods the room, and the transition feels like a warm flood. That describes much of the album. The soundstage is wide and 3D - the instruments are in the left/right forground, while Withers' voice is centered further back. Some other instruments fill the space from left-to-right.

This has got to be one of those albums you can use to relax after a hard day. The sound is topnotch, the record mostly clean and quiet, and it's not priced like an audiophile special.


Erykah Badu - Mama's Gun Product No: AMOT 33701
Available: BackOrdered
Category: Vinyl Record
Label: Motown

Excellent Recording

5 Stars
Posted Saturday, March 13, 2021 by Chris_G As a life long Erykah Badu fan and of this album in particular, this pressing does not disappoint in any way. Excellent and soulful vocals, good bass and well recorded.

My only ding is that the labels are reversed on each of the 2 lps, so side 1 is really side 2 and side 3 is side 4 on my copy.

It was definitely worth the 6 month backorder wait to get the album.


Spinners - Best Of Spinners Product No: AFRM 59179

Label: Friday Music

Mixed feelings

4 Stars
Posted Tuesday, March 9, 2021 by Anonymous The pressing is excellent/quiet, and the gold vinyl is beautiful! But I have mixed feelings about the sound. Some of the tracks sound wonderful and warm, like "One of a Kind (Love Affair)" and "They Just Can't Stop It The (Games People Play)". Others like "I'll be Around" sound bright. Not sure what the source was, or if it was different for some of the tracks. My analog components are all tube and tend to the warm side, yet on some of the tracks I felt the need to turn the volume down. Overall recommended, but can't give it 5 stars.

Defective packaging

3 Stars
Posted Friday, January 8, 2021 by Anonymous Good album and all, but the materials used in the inner sleeves left a lot of debris all over the records. Whatever the particles are, they were abrasive and clinging to the records. Professional cleaning could not help all of the audible pops and clicks.
