5 Stars
Posted Saturday, October 5, 2024 by Jake C I want to give this 4 stars because it came out of the package with visible fingerprints and a light scuff. Nice "QC", guys. Definitely a MoFi issue and *not* an Acoustic Sounds issue. At least MoFi has stopped adding the folded marketing inserts which undoubtedly add to their infamous problems with seam splits on the jackets.

I am forced to give 5 stars, however, as this is simply a stunning effort. This is easily one of the most impressive- sounding records in my collection. The clarity, separation, soundstage, and life in the recording are just all-around impressive, add to that the deep black backgrounds and I just have to say the $60 was money well-spent. I would happily use this as a reference recording to show off the capabilities of my system to guests.

Great Pressing

5 Stars
Posted Friday, September 20, 2024 by Anonymous I was unsure about this pressing. After all, I am sure this was not a high-volume release. But, when I dropped the stylus, I heard...nothing.

This pressing is very quiet. Very nice. If you are a DC5 fan, add this to your collection.

Don’t Know Why I Put This Off

Posted Sunday, April 7, 2024 by Michael Another Bernie Grundman masterpiece. So glad I lived long enough to see/hear Band Of Gypsys extended like this. Yes this was released 5 years before I bought it, but better late than never. Very Highly Recommended.

Van at his best-again.

5 Stars
Posted Saturday, January 13, 2024 by James Van Morrison has never disappointed me in his long career, this album is no exception. Vocals are brilliant, Morrisons alto sax is stellar and the backing musicians are as good as it gets. This album puts the listener in a good mood with the upbeat tempo.

Sounded Great

5 Stars
Posted Thursday, December 7, 2023 by Jim Was a pretty clean copy, just a few clicks, ticks & pops even after a bath on the VPI. For me a new record should be nothing but music. Was Tolerable. I in fact bought a copy at a local store and it had a little more noise. I took it back for refund. I no longer have the original lp to compare to. Reviewed on Rega Planner 3 with upgraded power supply through Moon phono preamp to NAD receiver out to Dynaudio Excite X44 speakers.

Eric Clapton - August

Product No: AREP 47736

Label: Reprise

One My Favorites from Clapton!

5 Stars
Posted Sunday, November 19, 2023 by Anonymous I thought this was a great album even though some of the Clapton faithful seemed to be disappointed in it when originally released. Granted, not in step with his usual style but a top shelf collection of songs in my humble opinion. I got into this release after hearing "It's in the Way that You Use It" from the movie, "The Color of Money". After I brought it home, way back in the mid-80's, there were many tracks as good or better. "Run" and the duo with Tina Turner, "Tearing Us Apart" are awesome! My original copy was worn out, so I bought this one as a replacement. As usual, Acoustic Sounds did not disappoint, and the quality was impeccable. Flat, quiet and rich soundstage! I've never been disappointed with anything I've purchased here, and "August" was no exception.

Exceeded expectations

5 Stars
Posted Monday, October 16, 2023 by William Taylor I was on the fence about buying Aerosmith studio albums or just going with their greatest hits, as I'm not a hardcore fan, but I'm so glad I purchased this double LP. It's a reminder of how well constructed a lot of their songs are. The remastering is excellent, and the surface noise on my copy is minimal. I kept pumping the volume up because that's the way this music wants to be played!! Thumbs up all the way

Linda Ronstadt - Canciones De Mi Padre

Category: 140 / 150 Gram Vinyl Record
Label: Iconic Artists Group

Linda at her best

5 Stars
Posted Thursday, October 12, 2023 by Anonymous I bought "canciones para mi padre" years ago in a cd format for my wife, who loves Mexican folklore music. To my surprise, I found out Linda released her album on vinyl. So, I immediately decided to purchase it.

This is an album for "music lovers" specially if you like vocals. The musical arrangements are superb, and the players are regarded as being at the top of Mexican music. Regardless of your taste, It is an album that will drag you into the music thanks to the incredible, lovely linda's voice. It is the same as if you do not care much for Rock music, but you have to have "The Dark Side of the Moon."

In addition to all this, the album is mastered by Bernie Grundman. So, I can hear a much wider range of the instrumentation in relation to soundstage, and of course the mid range is clear and sharp, and you can hear more detail compared to the cd format.

The album is flat, and it comes with its lyrics and an anti-static inner sleeve.

Pleasantly surprised

4 Stars
Posted Tuesday, October 3, 2023 by William I decided to take the leap, despite owning most of ELP's studio albums, because I've liked most most of the albums I've purchased with half- speed mastering (early Who, Roxy Music/Avalon, some Stones, etc.). In short, ELP never sounded better. Thumbs up on the mastering job. It's got punch, clarity, and separation. The Barbarian blew me away.

Dead silence pressing, very good sound quality

5 Stars
Posted Tuesday, March 28, 2023 by Michel Grenier I own this album in CD but as an audiophile in this field 1988, I set back my turntable for my second audio kit and want to have it in LP, so I ordered this one. This album always have more high frequencies as Selling England by the pound (witch I prefer for sound recording). My copy is very quiet and I am very happy with this purchase. I had ordered other 180g pressing here but some crack and pop are audible, this pressing quality is excellent, nothing to say, go and buy it.

Tops in comparison to all 1st pressings

5 Stars
Posted Friday, December 2, 2022 by Derek Spratt I have collected over 20 Honky Chateau pressings from 1st press UK and 1st press US and Canada and other later pressings, always searching for the best sonic and cleanest/quietest results and this 2017 pressing beats them all - simply put the remastering is a dream come true and when combined with the improved pressing quality, this is a 'must have' along with all other early EJ LPs which were remastered to vinyl starting in 2014 with GBYBR. Strangely, these are not available on CD or streaming yet - except the 50th Ann Madman release. Hmmm. Vinyl is the way forward for now.

Georgie Fame - Cool Cat Blues

Traversing the Line between Jazz & Blues.

5 Stars
Posted Thursday, November 24, 2022 by Ricke A Gazda "A Night In San Francisco" (Van Morrison Release 1994) Van shouts out Georgie Fame and a Jazz vocalist entered my ears with a smoothness of silk. That small portion of that release played in my head for years. A month ago I stumbled upon this release: "Cool Cat Blues" and was totally blown away. Georgie's voice, the arrangements and high wire act that connects Jazz with the Blues is tremendous. He joins once again with Van Morrison on "Moondance" which throws me right back to that 1994 Morrison release. He then adds Boz Scaggs to the mix along with the remainder of the entourage of cuts completes this package. As a Blues enthusiast, I can not come up with another release that travels this path with such completeness. Close your eyes and picture the wardrobe of the "Dick Van Dyke" show and the performances during their house parties within their New Rochelle home. This will take you there. All this great music and time travel too! Don't miss this one!!!!

The tracks are quite diverse and the remakes of Steely Dan tunes in particular are superb. This is a great addition to my collection and will be in regular circulation for some time.

defects

5 Stars
Posted Thursday, September 15, 2022 by Anonymous First, I did not purchase this title from Acoustic Sounds, I purchased new albums locally. I bought 2 new albums, one after the other, both had defects in the vinyl. Both albums were pitted, and had slight waves. One pit was deep enough to cause concern, I believe it may cause damage, not just defective playback. Shows "Republic Records, 2013. Both records were same title, I was hoping the first defective album was just bad luck or chance.
