Seals & Crofts – Diamond Girl
85,00 €Add to cartSeals & Crofts — Diamond Girl Shimmering harmonies, golden melodies — the sound of '70s sophistication at its brightest 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 The title track of Seals & Crofts' fifth studio album made its debut on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1973. 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.

Ry Cooder – Paris, Texas
85,00 €Add to cartRy Cooder — Paris, Texas Cooder's soul-stirring soundtrack to the 1985 film 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 Released in 1985, the Paris, Texas soundtrack by Ry Cooder blends slide guitar and minimalist music to reflect the film's emotional depth. 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.

Ry Cooder – Paradise And Lunch
85,00 €Add to cartRy Cooder — Paradise and Lunch A savory mix of blues, soul and deep Southern spirit! 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 Few artists blend roots, soul, and sheer musicianship as effortlessly as Ry Cooder. 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.

Ry Cooder – Chicken Skin Music
85,00 €Add to cartRy Cooder — Chicken Skin Music A roots music tapestry combining Hawaiian, gospel, conjunto, folk and blues! 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 The title says it all — Chicken Skin Music means goosebumps, and Ry Cooder delivers them in spades. 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.

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 The Ramones ignited the punk-rock movement with their eponymous 1976 debut album, revitalizing rock and roll at one of it's lowest ebbs with attitude, energy and a loud, fast new sound. 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.

Montrose – Montrose
85,00 €Add to cartMontrose — Montrose The Birth of American Hard Rock — now on audiophile vinyl! Part of the Acoustic Sounds 40 Series Releasing 40 titles to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Acoustic Sounds! Mastered by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab from the original master tape 180-gram 45 RPM double LP pressed at Quality Record Pressings Housed in a Stoughton Printing tip-on gatefold jacket Few debut albums hit with the seismic force of Montrose. Released in 1973, this powerhouse record didn't just introduce guitarist Ronnie Montrose and a then-unknown vocalist named Sammy Hagar — it practically rewrote the rules for American hard rock. From the opening riff of "Rock the Nation" to the thunder of "Bad Motor Scooter" and "Space Station #5," Montrose delivers 35 minutes of pure, high-octane energy. It's lean, loud, and loaded with attitude — the album that bridged the gap between Led Zeppelin's muscle and Van Halen's flash. In fact, Eddie Van Halen himself cited Montrose as a blueprint for what would come next. Produced by Ted Templeman (soon to helm Van Halen's own breakout), the record's sound is all killer instinct and no filler — massive guitar tones, airtight grooves, and Hagar's raw, unfiltered vocals in peak form. It's the kind of album that never left the turntables of rock fans, and it's still hailed by critics as one of the greatest debut albums in rock history. Now, this classic gets the treatment it's always deserved. Mastered with precision from the original tape by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab, and pressed on dead-quiet, perfectly flat vinyl by Quality Record Pressings, this edition captures every ounce of the album's fire and punch — the way it was meant to be heard. Turn it up, drop the needle, and feel the spark that lit an era. Montrose isn't just hard rock history — it's the sound of ignition.

Mastered by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab from the original master tape 180-gram 45 RPM double LP pressed at Quality Record Pressings Housed in a Stoughton Printing tip-on gatefold jacket Formed by the late, great Lowell George, Little Feat made music that was loose, funky, literate, and impossible to pin down. Sailin' Shoes (1972) caught the band just as their legend was taking shape — a mix of sharp-witted storytelling and swampy grooves that defined early-'70s cool. From "Willin'" and "Easy to Slip" to the swaggering title track, it's a master class in Southern California songwriting with a Louisiana twist. These songs defined Little Feat's legend as one of rock's most distinctive voices. This 45 RPM pressing, cut by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab from the original master tape, opens up the soundstage with wider grooves for superior tracking, lower distortion, and richer dynamics.

Pressed on ultra-quiet, perfectly flat 2LP by Quality Record Pressings, this timeless blend of storytelling from one of the most influential bands from the 70’s Warner catalog, sounds magnificent.

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 KC and the Sunshine Band got their start in Hialeah, Florida in 1973, starting out as KC and the Sunshine Junkanoo Band before dropping one of the words in their name, possibly to avoid spending the rest of their career being asked, "What's a Junkanoo?" It was the 1975 release of "Get Down Tonight" from their self-titled album that sent KC and the Sunshine Band into the stratosphere. It wasn't the only future No. 1 hit to be included in the track listing: also in the mix was "That's the Way (I Like It)." So, for that matter, was the soon-to-be Top-40 hit "Boogie Shoes." Between those three tracks, it became virtually impossible to escape KC and the Sunshine Band during 1975...and that's the way Harry Casey liked it.

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.

Gram Parsons – Grievous Angel
85,00 €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.

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.
