Bob Marley and The Wailers – Kaya
77,00 €Add to cartBob Marley & The Wailers — Kaya Mastered by Ryan K. Smith at Sterling Sound from the original master tape Two 45 RPM LPs pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings Deluxe Old-Style Tip-On Stoughton Printing gatefold jacket Kaya, released in 1978, was the tenth studio album by the Jamaican band Bob Marley & The Wailers, comprising tracks recorded alongside those released on the Exodus album. On Kaya, the band continued what has become an unspoken tradition in the evolution of Bob Marley & The Wailers discography — blending western sounds and motifs with the icons and traditions from the very core of Jamaican society. Released in 1978, Kaya wasn't necessarily made with American tastes in mind, but it was an album that presented a more accessible version of Bob Marley. Lyrically, the songs avoided the political commentary or Rastafarian philosophizing that was at the forefront of Natty Dread and Rastaman Vibration, and instead emphasized tunes about love and ganga, such as "Easy Skanking" and the title cut. And the palpable musical tension that simmered beneath the surface on the Wailers' earlier material gave way to a more laid-back riddim that was more comfortable but a bit less demanding. Kaya presented a gentler and friendlier version of Bob Marley & the Wailers, but it also documented Marley and his group at the peak of their abilities. Likewise, Kaya could also be easily construed as an open love letter or musical paean to the lifestyle that Marley so eagerly embraced and promoted. Evidence that the spirituality that permeates the Wailers music is real and not lip service. Now, Analogue Productions presents Kaya in sonic perfection — featured on 180-gram vinyl pressed at 45 RPM at Quality Record Pressings. Housed in a deluxe Old Style Tip-On Jacket from Stoughton Printing.

Bob Marley and The Wailers – Uprising
77,00 €Add to cartBob Marley & The Wailers — Uprising Mastered by Ryan K. Smith at Sterling Sound from the original master tape Two 45 RPM LPs pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings/Also on Hybrid Multichannel SACD Deluxe Old-Style Tip-On Stoughton Printing gatefold jacket Uprising would be the final studio album featuring Bob Marley & the Wailers to be released during Marley's lifetime. Prophetically, it also contains some of the band's finest crafted material, as if they were cognizant that this would be their final outing. Released in 1980, Uprising stands as one of Bob Marley's most poignant and spiritually charged albums, embodying both his enduring reggae genius and his reflective, almost prophetic musings on life and faith. What makes Uprising particularly unique in Marley's discography is its duality-balancing socially conscious anthems with deeply personal expressions of faith, hope, and mortality. Tracks such as the iconic "Redemption Song," with its acoustic simplicity and universal message of liberation, and the haunting "Forever Loving Jah," reveal a man at peace with his spirituality. Meanwhile, songs such as "Could You Be Loved" deliver infectious grooves and crossover appeal, proving Marley's ability to blend message and melody effortlessly. Critics and fans alike hailed Uprising as a high point in Marley's career. It received acclaim for its mature sound and cohesive vision, with reviewers highlighting its raw emotional power. While it didn't achieve the explosive commercial success of Exodus or Kaya, it cemented Marley's status as a global ambassador for reggae and freedom. For Marley fans, it's more than an album — it's a testament to his enduring spirit. Now, Analogue Productions gives Uprising the deluxe treatment this album, with its rich heritage, deserves. Pressed on 180-gram vinyl pressed at 45 RPM at Quality Record Pressings. Housed in a deluxe Old Style Tip-On Jacket from Stoughton Printing.

Miles Davis Quintet – Great Prestige Recordings
279,00 €Add to cartMiles Davis Quintet — The Great Prestige Recordings A classic box set reborn! Mastered from the original analog tapes by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio 180-gram vinyl 33 1/3 5LP pressed at Quality Record Pressings Set includes pressings of The New Miles Davis Quintet (Miles), Cookin' with the Miles Davis Quintet, Relaxin' with the Miles Davis Quintet, Workin' with the Miles Davis Quintet, and Steamin' with the Miles Davis Quintet LPs housed in Stoughton Printing old style tip-on jackets Also includes a 12-page booklet with liner notes by Bob Blumenthal One of Analogue Productions' most successful and collectible projects has been the Miles Davis Quintet/The Great Prestige Recordings deluxe box set on 33 1/3 LP. Now, that beautiful five-album set is being reintroduced. Featuring a 12" x 12" 12-page gorgeous booklet, packaged with the LPs (each housed in a Stoughton Printing tip-on jacket) in a deluxe, heavy-duty box, this set is the end-all of Miles' work for the legendary Prestige label from 1951 through 1956. Stereophile awarded the first incarnation of this set Recording of the Month in their March 1997 issue, giving it five stars for both music and sonics. Miles Davis's final Prestige sessions came from a desire to move to Columbia in 1956 while still owing Prestige several albums. Using producer Bob Weinstock's loose recording approach, Miles and his first great quintet knocked out the obligation in two marathon sessions (May 11 and October 26, 1956) at Rudy Van Gelder's studio, playing their regular live repertoire with little rehearsal. Prestige later released the music as Cookin', Relaxin', Workin', and Steamin'. Intended as quick contract fillers, the recordings became landmark hard-bop albums and some of the most natural, swinging jazz ever captured. The Miles Davis Quintet featured what is likely Miles' best-ever group, featuring Davis, John Coltrane, Philly Joe Jones, Paul Chambers and Red Garland. All of those albums are included in this limited edition box set. The albums are pressed on 180-gram vinyl and mastered from the original analog tapes by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio. They are packaged in a deluxe box with original album covers plus the 12-page booklet by Bob Blumenthal. These were not rehearsed studio constructions but living, breathing performances — spontaneous, swinging, and electrifying in their interplay. From the simmering cool of "My Funny Valentine" to the hard-driving pulse of "Airegin," these sessions distilled everything that made Miles and his sidemen legends. This box set is essential listening — meticulously mastered, beautifully presented, and historically vital. Own the sound that started it all — Miles, Coltrane, and company at their most inspired.

Chet Baker – In New York
82,00 €Add to cartChet Baker — In New York Mastering by Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman at Acoustech Mastering Double LP cut at 45 RPM and pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings! Stoughton Printing Old Style Tip-On gatefold jacket with scuff-resistant matte finish On Chet Baker — In New York, Chet plays like an angel with a muted trumpet. In New York captures the moody prince of cool stepping into the East Coast hard bop ring — and holding his own with charm, tone, and those impossibly lyrical lines that seem to float above the beat like cigarette smoke in a club basement. Chet Baker didn’t play the trumpet. He seduced it. His tone? So velvety, you might try spreading it on toast. His solos? Like a conversation with someone who never raises their voice — but always gets the last word. On In New York, Chet proves that his famously fragile persona belied a rock-solid sense of melody, timing, and understated swagger. Chet may be the name on the cover, but he came to town with some serious firepower. Johnny Griffin (tenor sax), known as the “Little Giant” brings a big sound and a bebop bite, pushing Chet into edgier territory — and yes, it works. Al Haig (piano), is bebop royalty. Cool, crisp, and a perfect harmonic foil for Baker’s phrasing. Paul Chambers (bass), is from Miles’ first-call list. He doesn’t just walk the bass — he struts. Lastly, Philly Joe Jones (drums) swings so hard, it’s a wonder the studio walls didn’t cave in. This lineup turns In New York from a moody trumpet feature into a full-on jazz heavyweight bout, where elegance and energy shake hands for 42 glorious minutes. Among the tracks, “Fair Weather” opens like a sigh and builds to a gorgeous melodic statement. Chet’s tone is so pure, you’ll swear it’s whispering secrets. “Solar” is the Miles Davis tune. Chet steps into the master’s world and makes it his own. Confident, cool, and swinging. “Polka Dots and Moonbeams” is a ballad done Baker-style: Romantic, vulnerable, and smoother than a vintage Cadillac. These are just a taste of the treasures that await on In New York. This vinyl reissue is par excellence: Mastering by Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman at Acoustech Mastering, double LP cut at 45 RPM and pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings! Plus it’s housed in a Stoughton Printing Old Style Tip-On gatefold jacket with scuff-resistant matte finish. This is an album that deserves space in every jazz fan’s collection. It captures a unique moment in Chet’s career — between the breezy West Coast cool and the rawer later years. It’s a must-have for any jazz collector who values tone, taste, and a little touch of trumpet romance. Add to cart. Drop the needle. Cue the cool.

Gene Ammons – Blue Gene
82,00 €Add to cartGene Ammons — Blue Gene Mastering by Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman at Acoustech Mastering Double LP cut at 45 RPM and pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings! Stoughton Printing Old Style Tip-On gatefold jacket with scuff-resistant matte finish Jazz lovers and sonic thrill seekers — here’s a horn-heavy hangout starring the smooth, swaggering Gene Ammons and a dream team of mid-century jazz legends. Think of it as a top-shelf jam session that someone wisely remembered to hit “record” on. This 1958 Prestige gem is bluesy by name and bluesier by nature — three of the four tracks ride those familiar blues changes like a Cadillac with velvet seats. But don’t get too comfortable, because pianist Mal Waldron penned the entire setlist, including the haunting, minor-key ballad “Hip Tip,” just to keep your ears on their toes. Gene Ammons, aka “Jug,” brings that famously expressive tenor sax of his — rich enough to butter toast with — and pairs up with two of the finest co-conspirators ever to bless a horn: the sharp, soulful Idrees Sulieman on trumpet and the baritone brawler himself, Pepper Adams. This trio doesn’t just blow; they converse, they duel, and occasionally they just throw down. Every player on this date had already jammed with Gene before, so the chemistry is tighter than a snare drum. It’s the kind of session where everyone shows up knowing it’s about to go down — and it does. The vinyl reissue is par excellence: Mastering by Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman at Acoustech Mastering, double LP cut at 45 RPM and pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings! Plus it’s housed in a Stoughton Printing Old Style Tip-On gatefold jacket with scuff-resistant matte finish. Blue Gene is a must-have slice of golden-era jazz — equal parts brains, brawn, and bluesy brilliance. File it under “Instant Vibe.”

Chuck Berry – Berry Is On Top
44,00 €Add to cartChuck Berry — Berry Is On Top (Mono) Chess Records 75 Series from Chess Records and Acoustic Sounds! Rock 'n' roll anthems abound, includes "Johnny B. Goode" and "Roll Over Beethoven" All-analog mastering by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab 180-gram vinyl pressed at Quality Record Pressings Chuck Berry didn't just play rock 'n' roll; he invented its swagger. Released in 1959 on Chess Records, Berry On Top is where Berry slammed his flag into the musical mountaintop and declared, "This land is rock 'n' roll, and I own the real estate." This album and its anthems that built rock — "Johnny B. Goode," "Roll Over Beethoven" — was a starter kit for everything that came after. The riffs? Every garage band you've ever heard learned them here. The attitude? Let's just say Elvis may have swiveled his hips but Chuck wrote the manual. Chess Records was the beating heart of American music in the 1950s — the place where blues went electric, soul started to simmer, and rock 'n' roll took its first wild steps. With Berry, and others, Chess didn't just join the rock 'n' roll revolution, they launched it. Berry On Top showed that blues roots and a country twang could collide and create something explosive! This reissue is the real deal as well. Mastered by Matt Lutthans at The Mastering Lab, the sound makes Berry's riffs snap like live wires while keeping the bottom end tight and warm. The Quality Record Pressings vinyl is so flat and silent, you'll hear every nuance — every pick scrape, every finger pop, every ounce of Chess mojo. Berry On Top is a cornerstone of rock, where swagger met swing, and a guitar god was born.

Landmark album and shimmering vocals blending soul, jazz, blues and gospel Timeless tracks "At Last," and "Something's Got A Hold on Me" All-analog mastering by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab 180-gram vinyl pressed at Quality Record Pressings Etta James's debut album, originally released in 1961 on the Chess subsidiary Argo Records. The album's title-track and "All I Could Do Was Cry" (co-written by future Motown founder Berry Gordy) both went to No. 2 on the R&B charts. When Etta James stepped to the mic in 1960 to record her debut for Chess Records, the world didn't just get an album — it got a cultural landmark. At Last! was a velvet-wrapped knockout punch that still sends chills down spines six decades later. This was the record that turned Etta from a teenage R&B firebrand into a full-fledged legend. Backed by lush orchestration and dripping with raw emotion, she could make heartbreak sound like poetry and longing feel like a victory lap. Chess Records knew they had something special, and they delivered an LP that blended blues grit, jazz sophistication, and pop elegance in a way nobody had done before. Mastered by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab from the original Chess tapes, he's unlocked the depth, the lush, breathing magic in James' performance. Pressed at Quality Record Pressings, this is perfection under the needle — flat, silent, heavy 180-gram vinyl.

Van Morrison – His Band And The Street Choir
82,00 €Add to cartVan Morrison — His Band And The Street Choir 1970 album includes "Domino," "Blue Money" and "Call Me Up In Dreamland" Part of the Acoustic Sounds 40 Series Releasing 40 titles to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Acoustic Sounds! Mastered from the original analog master tape 180-gram 45 RPM double LP pressed at Quality Record Pressings Housed in a Stoughton Printing tip-on gatefold jacket Legendary Irish singer-songwriter Van Morrison produced two of the most famous albums of his career — Astral Weeks and Moondance — but overlooked is this gem because of its proximity to those two heavyweights. His Band And The Street Choir came into existence predominantly during the first half of 1970 at A&R Recording Studios in New York City, with recording wrapping up in July and August. Produced by Morrison himself, the album actually started out in Woodstock, New York, where he recorded some demos in a small church. By March, however, the album's session had begun in earnest in NYC. Some of the songs had actually been first recorded for those earlier two albums we mentioned, but Morrison decided to rewrite them and rearrange them for the new LP, since the musical sensibilities on His Band And The Street Choir were decidedly different from the albums that preceded it. As Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote on Pitchfork., "The album gives an illusion of buoyant immediacy thanks in no small part to its heavy R&B kick. Where Moondance traded in jazz — even its liveliest moment was named after a Duke Ellington song — His Band And The Street Choir relied on soul and gospel, using folk almost as an accent." It's fair to say that critics at the time gushed over the album. "His Band And The Street Choir is a free album," Jon Landau wrote in his Rolling Stone review. "It was recorded with minimal over-dubbing and was obviously intended to show the other side of Moondance." His Band And The Street Choir captures Van Morrison at his most joyful and spontaneous — a luminous counterpoint to the introspection of Moondance. This is the sound of a great artist unguarded, caught in the groove of the moment, with the energy of the studio practically spilling out of the grooves. If you love the sound of real instruments recorded with warmth and soul, Street Choir belongs in your collection.

Tony Joe White – Tony Joe White
82,00 €Add to cartTony Joe White — Tony Joe White Southern soul, swamp rock, and the restless spirit of a changing America Part of the Acoustic Sounds 40 Series Releasing 40 titles to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Acoustic Sounds! 180-gram 45 RPM double LP Mastered from the original master tape Pressed at Quality Record Pressings Tip-on old style gatefold double pocket jacket by Stoughton Printing Tony Joe White, nicknamed the Swamp Fox, released his fourth album, and his first for Warner Bros. Records in 1971. The album was recorded over a two-week period in December 1970, in two different Memphis studios (one was Ardent Studios, where Big Star later recorded their influential power pop albums). His producer was none other than London-born Peter Asher, who had just produced James Taylor's early hits for the label (he would continue to produce hits for Taylor and Linda Ronstadt on his way to becoming one of the most successful producers of the '70s). AllMusic describes the songs on Tony Joe White as "standard and straightforward ... White's husky southern warble remains the album's key focus." Still, White digs into the turbulence of the late '60s and early '70s with both heart and heat. "The Change" sets the tone, a smoky, spoken-word sermon that taps into the era's yearning for progress. "I Just Walked Away" (the album's standout single) balances Southern funk and raw emotional punch, while "The Daddy" and "Five Summers for Jimmy" reveal White's tender, introspective side. The autobiographical "A Night in the Life of a Swamp Fox" closes the album with a nod to the man behind the myth — a road-weary musician caught between fame and freedom. Tony Joe White stands as a defining moment for one of music's most distinctive voices — a swamp-rock masterpiece steeped in social reflection and Southern soul, raw and timelessly American.

Mastered from the original analog master tape 180-gram 45 RPM double LP pressed at Quality Record Pressings Housed in a Stoughton Printing tip-on gatefold jacket Members of The Meters were longstanding musical luminaries in New Orleans, but by the time of 1975's Fire On The Bayou, the world beyond the Big Easy had also taken notice; The Rolling Stones tapped the band to open their U.S. tour that year. Produced by the great Allen Toussaint at his Sea-Saint Studios, the collection was the quintet's third for Reprise and arguably their best for the label. With percussionist Cyril Neville joining the ranks, the grooves get even funkier on these 11 tracks, as a couple of fine covers ("Mardi Gras Mambo") join ace originals like "Out in the Country," "They All Ask'd For You," and the title track. Gritty and punchy, Fire On The Bayou simmers from start to finish. Now restored to its full glory by Analogue Productions and pressed at Quality Record Pressings, this definitive reissue of Fire On The Bayou captures The Meters at their funkiest and most fearless — a swampy, hard-grooving New Orleans classic that radiates heat, grit, and soul from the first note to the last.

With Summer Breeze, Seals & Crofts — Jim Seals and Dash Crofts — found the perfect balance of breezy melodies, intricate musicianship, and lyrical introspection. It was the record that transformed them from respected songwriters into household names, helping usher in the smooth California sound that would dominate radio throughout the decade.

Like the majority of their material, the jazz-influenced "Diamond Girl" was written by Jim Seals and Dash Crofts. Alan Bershaw of Paste Magazine described the song as "the infectious title track" of the album, praising the way that its lyrics are "skillfully depicting the love for a woman or a commitment to God, depending on how one interprets them." (The latter aspect is no surprise, given that the duo was famously affiliated with the Baha'i faith.) "Diamond Girl" was another Top 10 hit for Seals & Crofts, and it helped send the album of the same name hurtling all the way to No. 4 on the Billboard 200, thereby turning it into the highest-charting album of their career. It was also the end of the duo's tendency to embrace the acoustic side of music, as they henceforth tended to focus more on a band-oriented approach to their tunes. If you've got to leave a certain percentage of your fans behind, it's best to do it with an album that sticks with them, and Diamond Girl certainly achieved that in spades.

The iconic track "Paris, Texas" helped the album earn critical acclaim, including a BAFTA for Best Film Music. Cooder's score perfectly captured the film's themes of isolation and redemption. It's been more than four decades since the film was awarded the 1984 Palme d'Or at its acclaimed Cannes Film Festival debut. The film's mystifying personae and desolate neo-western vistas have lost none of their original intrigue, thanks in large part to Ry Cooder's iconic soundtrack — a defining showpiece by a slide guitar savant. Recorded over three days, his music plays a pivotal mood-setting role, providing a plangent underpinning for German director Wim Wenders' postcard renderings of Americana.

A virtuoso guitarist, producer, and musical historian, Cooder has long been revered for unearthing the heart of American music — and Paradise and Lunch (1974) stands as one of his crowning achievements. A good 20 years have passed since a band with ancient musicians from Cuba — the Buena Vista Social Club — took the world by storm. Behind the project, in the wings yet right in the midst of this unheard-of music, was Ry Cooder, who regarded this encounter as the greatest musical event of his entire life. The bottleneck guitar hero had always been very interested in the music from the other Americas ever since the solo albums he made in his early years, in which he told the story of the American folk and blues in a multitude of styles. Paradise and Lunch is no exception. The faint smell of a wooden church from pioneering days wafts out of the processional antiphonal song "Jesus On The Mainline" and a healthy 12-bar blues paints a picture of what silent witnesses could tell if they could ("If Walls Could Talk"). Cooder and his sidemen felt themselves perfectly at home when adventuring further afield and this is testified to in the laid-back calypso rhythm of "It's All Over Now" and the clip-clop of "Mexican Divorce." Steeped in gospel, blues, R&B, and Tex-Mex groove, this is Cooder at his most inspired — relaxed, confident, and surrounded by an ace lineup that includes jazz legend Earl "Fatha" Hines, gospel great Bobby King, and the irresistible rhythm of Jim Keltner. His interpretations of "Tattler," "Jesus on the Mainline," and "Ditty Wah Ditty" shimmer with warmth and personality, transforming traditional material into something timeless and distinctly his own. This is essential listening for anyone who values authenticity, artistry, and great sound.

Released in 1976, this groundbreaking album captures Cooder at his most adventurous, blending gospel, Tex-Mex, Hawaiian, folk, and blues into one seamless, soul-stirring whole. Long before "world music" was a genre, Cooder was already building the bridges — connecting sounds, cultures, and traditions with unmatched taste and precision. What makes Chicken Skin Music so extraordinary is the joy in the playing. Cooder's slide guitar glides effortlessly alongside Flaco Jiménez's accordion, Gabby Pahinui's slack-key stylings, and gospel-choir harmonies that lift every track skyward. Songs like "He'll Have to Go," "Stand by Me," and "Always Lift Him Up / Kanaka Wai Wai" radiate warmth and humanity, revealing Cooder's rare gift for honoring tradition while reinventing it in his own unmistakable voice. Few records sound this alive, this inclusive, or this downright moving. It's Ry Cooder at his most inspired.

By cutting music down to it's bare essentials — four chords; a simple, catchy melody; a sped-up tempo and irresistibly inane lyrics, the Ramones blazed the trail for thousands of bands that followed, influencing everyone from The Clash and The Sex Pistols to Green Day and The Offspring. Although The Ramones never achieved mainstream financial success, they released 21 live and studio albums, had a devoted fan base and were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2002. Other bands, such as the Stooges and the New York Dolls, came before them and set the stage and aesthetic for punk, and bands that immediately followed, such as the Sex Pistols, made the latent violence of the music more explicit, but the Ramones crystallized the musical ideals of the genre. Still the loudest wake-up call rock ever had.

Mastered from the original analog master tape 180-gram 45 RPM double LP pressed at Quality Record Pressings Housed in a Stoughton Printing tip-on gatefold jacket Black Rose stands as John David Souther's defining artistic statement — a lush, soulful record that bridges the California country-rock sound with elegant, jazz-inflected sophistication. Originally released in 1976 on Asylum Records, this was the moment Souther fully came into his own: a songwriter's songwriter, surrounded by the very best of L.A.'s musical elite. With appearances by Linda Ronstadt, Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Joe Walsh, and David Crosby, Black Rose captures that intimate, sunlit West Coast magic like few albums of its time. Sonically, Black Rose is a marvel — warm, organic, and deeply textured.

Every note glows with studio craftsmanship. Souther mined themes of heartbreak and grace, love and loss, with precision on Black Rose.

Rich, timeless, and radiantly human — Black Rose by John David Souther is a masterpiece that still blooms with every play.

Gram Parsons – Grievous Angel
82,00 €Add to cartGram Parsons — Grievous Angel Parsons' final studio album — breathtaking fusion of country, soul and rock Part of the Acoustic Sounds 40 Series Releasing 40 titles to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Acoustic Sounds! Mastered from the original analog master tape 180-gram 45 RPM double LP pressed at Quality Record Pressings Housed in a Stoughton Printing tip-on gatefold jacket After a summer tour, Gram Parsons dashed off a couple of new songs ("Return Of The Grievous Angel," "In My Hour Of Darkness"), dusted off a few old ones (including "Hickory Wind" and "$1000 Wedding" from his days with The Byrds and The Flying Burrito Brothers, respectively) and convened his band in the studio to cut his second Reprise album. With Grievious Angel in the can, Parsons headed for Joshua Tree, California, and history. Released a few months after his untimely demise there, this 1974 album stands among his best work as a shining example of the cosmic American music he pioneered, with superb playing from the likes of guitarist James Burton, and some beautiful harmonizing from Emmylou Harris (and on the final track, Linda Ronstadt). Tracks such as "Brass Buttons," "Return of the Grievous Angel," and "Love Hurts" (a duet for the ages) carry emotional weight and effortless beauty, delivered with the warmth and immediacy only analog recording can capture. Every note feels alive — the pedal steel sighs, the harmonies soar, and Parsons' voice, tender and world-weary, sits perfectly in the center of the soundstage. Though Parsons passed away before the album's release, Grievous Angel became his legacy — the work that turned cult admiration into lasting influence. Its impact can be heard in generations of artists, from the Eagles to Wilco, from Lucinda Williams to Sturgill Simpson. Cut from the original analog masters, Grievous Angel offers that unmistakable '70s depth and presence. Grievous Angel endures because it's a pure, analog expression of beauty, longing, and timeless sound.

Genesis – Wind & Wuthering
105,00 €Add to cartGenesis — Wind & Wuthering Includes "Your Own Special Way," "One for the Vine" and "Blood on the Rooftops" Part of the Acoustic Sounds 40 Series Releasing 40 titles to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Acoustic Sounds! Mastered from the original analog master tape 180-gram 45 RPM double LP pressed at Quality Record Pressings Housed in a Stoughton Printing tip-on gatefold jacket The eighth studio set from the U.K. band would prove the last with guitarist Steve Hackett, who with the core trio of keyboardist Tony Banks, bassist Mike Rutherford and vocalist/drummer Phil Collins brought Genesis's progressive rock phase to a memorable close. With Wind and Wuthering, Genesis reached a turning point — and created one of the most hauntingly beautiful albums in their catalog. Released in 1976, this gold-certified masterpiece ushered in a new era for the band. A touch less whimsical than its predecessors, Wind and Wuthering trades fairy-tale fantasy for sweeping cinematic grandeur — filled with atmosphere, precision, and emotional depth. The record delivers Genesis' first U.S. charting single, "Your Own Special Way," yet it's the album's darker corners — the majestic "One for the Vine," the moody "Blood on the Rooftops," and the stirring instrumental passages — that reveal the full power of the band's musicianship. Tony Banks has often called this his favorite Genesis album, admiring its mystery and its intricate musical design: "It's definitely the most musically complex of all our albums." For audiophiles, Wind and Wuthering is pure analog poetry — a lush, immersive listen where every synth wash, guitar line, and drum flourish feels alive in the room. This is one to own, play, and rediscover again and again.

Foghat – Foghat
82,00 €Add to cartFoghat — Foghat The debut that defined British boogie rock — now better than ever! Part of the Acoustic Sounds 40 Series Releasing 40 titles to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Acoustic Sounds! Mastered from the original analog master tape 180-gram 45 RPM double LP pressed at Quality Record Pressings Housed in a Stoughton Printing tip-on gatefold jacket Released in 1972, Foghat introduced a sound built for the open road and the turntable alike — raucous, blues-drenched, high-octane rock with the volume knob always begging for "a little more." Featuring former Savoy Brown guitarist and vocalist "Lonesome" Dave Peverett, Foghat took the raw spirit of the British blues boom and cranked it into something leaner, louder, and ready for the FM era. From the thunderous opener "I Just Want to Make Love to You" to the heavy shuffle of "Trouble, Trouble" and the swaggering "Fool's Hall of Fame," this album cemented Foghat's reputation for tight grooves, searing guitar tone, and unapologetic energy. It's the record that laid the groundwork for the arena-conquering hits that would follow — and it still sounds like a full-throttle good time. Cut at 45 RPM from the original analog tape, this edition delivers richer bass, cleaner transients, and more groove space for your cartridge to track with absolute precision. The guitars roar, the drums snap, and the band's signature boogie swings with a warmth and drive that's only experienced on vinyl. Whether you're rediscovering the dawn of Foghat's legacy or spinning it for the first time, this pressing captures exactly what made early-'70s rock electric — unfiltered energy, unbreakable groove, and analog sound at its finest.

Originally released in 1987, Trio was both a critical and commercial triumph, selling more than 4 million copies worldwide, topping the Billboard U.S. Country Albums chart for five consecutive weeks, and earning the Grammy Award for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal. It was also nominated for Album of the Year. The album yielded four major country hits, highlighted by the haunting, harmony-driven remake of Phil Spector's classic "To Know Him Is to Love Him." Produced by legendary engineer George Massenburg, Trio is a masterclass in clarity, balance, and vocal blend. Every track showcases the trio's distinct personalities while achieving a near-perfect harmonic unity-three iconic artists elevating one another through tasteful arrangements, pristine acoustics, and song-first performances.

82,00 €Add to cartAmerica — Homcoming The sound of the '70s California dream — warmer, wider and more alive than ever! Part of the Acoustic Sounds 40 Series Releasing 40 titles to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Acoustic Sounds! Mastered from the original analog master tape 180-gram 45 RPM double LP pressed at Quality Record Pressings Housed in a Stoughton Printing tip-on gatefold jacket With Homecoming (1972), America proved their debut success was no fluke. The band — Dewey Bunnell, Gerry Beckley, and Dan Peek — expanded their acoustic folk-pop foundation into something lusher, more textured, and timelessly melodic. The result is one of the definitive albums of the era - a sunlit blend of shimmering harmonies, open-road optimism, and introspective songwriting. Anchored by the band's enduring classic "Ventura Highway," Homecoming also delivers gems such as "Don't Cross the River," "Only in Your Heart," and "Till the Sun Comes Up Again." The platinum-selling album captured America's easygoing West Coast vibe — and cemented their place beside Crosby, Stills & Nash and the Eagles in the pantheon of classic ‘70s rock harmony.

Caelan Cardello – Chapter One
58,00 €Add to cartCaelan Cardello — Chapter One Lacquers cut by TrackingAngle.com contributor and mastering engineer Dave McNair Pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings Packaged in a Stoughton Printing old-style, tip-on jacket "When somebody's 'Got it' ... you know ... instantly! Caelan Cardello's 'Got it' ... all of it: Heart, brains, dimension, drama, imagination, taste, time, spirit, blues, nuance, virtuosity, variety, and personality. He communicates directly from the piano, telling his story with optimism and depth, intelligence and passion. Caelan Cardello has arrived!" — Bill Charlap "Caelan Cardello is a one-in-a-million talent. He is gifted as a composer and player." — Vincent Herring Chapter One, the debut studio album by pianist Caelan Cardello, had audiences from the recent Warsaw Audio Video Fair to The Capital Audio Festival applauding as if Caelan and his trio were playing live instead of on 180-gram vinyl. Musically, Caelan's studio set debut is nothing like the now sold-out LP Rufus Reid Presents Caelan Cardello. "On this often-raucous studio set, the young jazz pianist backed by bassist Jonathon Muir-Cotton and power house drummer Domo Branch tears through a set of mostly Caelan original compositions — some at start-and-stop breakneck speed — while others have a more contemplative feel," writes reviewer Michael Fremer for TrackingAngle.com. In an album of highlights, the high point may well be Cardello's virtuosic solo piano rendition of Thelonious Monk's "Ask Me Now" exclusively available on this vinyl edition distributed by Acoustic Sounds. Cardello started playing piano at the age of 5 and within two years had begun parallel arcs of formal training in both classical and jazz piano, starting with jazz pianist/arranger Allen Farnham and Juilliard classical alum Steve Masi. Cardello graduated from William Paterson University with a bachelors degree in Jazz Piano Performance. During his time there he found himself again under the tutelage of many venerable Jazz Masters including Bill Charlap and the late great Harold Mabern. He regularly performed with William Paterson Jazz Ensembles, being featured at WBGO and playing shows at Dizzys Club in NYC. When not performing, Cardello devotes his attention to furthering his musical studies in performance, composition, arrangement and digital music technology. Over time, Cardello's musical accomplishments and live performances have garnered him several prestigious awards including the New Jersey Governor's Award, the James Moody College Scholarship Award for "Outstanding Musicianship," the 2021 BMI Foundation's Future Jazz Master Award, and the prestigious Herbie Hancock International Piano Competition.
