You can find some original stems shared by songs' authors themselves. Let's reflect a little bit more about where all phonograms are even coming from and what kinds of backing tracks are there? The No. We'd also like to share our experience and to talk a few words about our vision and approach. In the article given, we'll run through some technical subjects, which sometimes stay uncertain or misunderstood. Well, in the meantime, let’s discuss a little more about which benefits multitracks give to us and why the project is conceived. Bob James provided the colorful if somewhat commercial arrangements, there are spots for guitarist Eric Gale, and Washington (mostly on tenor and soprano) is heard in particularly creative form. All four songs are quite enjoyable but it is ‘Mister Magic’ that really caught on as a major hit. One of Grover Washington, Jr.’s best-loved recordings and considered a classic of r&bish jazz.

Lots of old records (and new ones) have no real top end consequently, the studio or stage will be missing much of its natural air and space, and instruments will lack their full complement of harmonic information. Top end extension is critical to the sound of the best copies. So many things can go wrong on a record! We know, we’ve heard them all. Playing the record is the only way to hear all of the qualities we discuss above, and playing the best pressings against a pile of other copies under rigorously controlled conditions is the only way to find a pressing that sounds as good as this one does.Ĭopies with rich lower mids and nice extension up top did the best in our shootout, assuming they weren’t veiled or smeary of course. No doubt there’s more but we hope that should do for now.
Transparency and resolution, critical to hearing into the three-dimensional studio space.Natural tonality in the midrange - with all the instruments having the correct timbre.Tight, note-like, rich, full-bodied bass, with the correct amount of weight down low.Only the best vintage vinyl pressings offer the kind of Tubey Magic that was on the tapes in 1975 The most Tubey Magic, without which you have almost nothing.The biggest, most immediate staging in the largest acoustic space.What the Best Sides of Mister Magic Have to Offer Is Not Hard to Hear
Old records have it - not often, and certainly not always - but maybe one out of a hundred new records do, and those are some pretty long odds. If you exclusively play modern repressings of vintage recordings, I can say without fear of contradiction that you have never heard this kind of sound on vinyl.
It’s what vintage all analog recordings are known for - this sound. If you love hearing INTO a recording, actually being able to “see” the performers, and feeling as if you are sitting in the studio with the band, this is the record for you. Folks, that sound is gone and it sure isn’t showing signs of coming back. This vintage Kudu pressing has the kind of Tubey Magical Midrange that modern records can barely BEGIN to reproduce. Washington is backed by excellent players including Bob James, Phil Upchurch, Harvey Mason, Ralph MacDonald, Eric Gale and many more. You get tons of space and energy, along with balanced tonality and great presence. Our job is to find you the copy that has none of those problems, and that is precisely what we have done with this Shootout Winner. Often they also suffer from serious congestion and veiling. Most pressings are murky, overly smooth, and lack energy. 5 stars: “This is one of Grover Washington, Jr.’s best-loved recordings and considered a classic of R&B-ish jazz.We’re big fans of Rudy Van Gelder’s work in the early- to mid-70s, and it’s records like this (and All the King’s Horses) that make our case.We guarantee the sound is dramatically bigger, richer, fuller, and livelier than any pressing you have ever heard.
