Analog Productions were kind enough to rush a whole slew of test pressings to us in time for the NY Audio Show.  The LPs below are all 45 RPM re-issues:

The Doors LA Woman and Strange Days  – all analog production from the original master  tapes, mastered by Doug Stax  on an all tube system. Overseen by Bruce Botnick (Doors original producer & engineer)  45 RPM  200 gram pressed at QRP.    In contrast the Rhino Doors box set was sourced  from digital transfers.

Also 45 RPM upcoming re-issues of Ella Fitzgerald, Ella and Louie, Duke Ellington & Johnny Hodges, Sunny Stitt, and also 33 RPM titles from Norah Jones, Tommy Flanigan and Eddie Lockjaw Davis.

The 45 RPM re-issues are dramatically improved over their 33 RPM sibling, most especially in the weight & gravitas of the bass. These records are noticeably much better sounding than any Japanese pressings, UHQR or any other re-issue you care to compare them to.

Should be a FUN Show!
