Classic Records use "Classic Quiex SV - Super Vinyl" which is a superior vinyl formula that enhances the records sound to gain more detailed and "richer harmonics" with a "more precise soundstage presentation." Without a doubt, these are fine audiophile albums.

"The Who, Live At Leeds - 200 Gram"THE WHO - LIVE AT LEEDS This Limited Edition Audiophile 200 GRAM CLASSIC RECORDS HEAVY VINYL PRESSING. LONG OUT OF PRINT AND STILL IN IT'S ORIGINAL FACTORY SEAL. This Vinyl LP pressing has been critically acclaimed as the finest and quietest ever produced. It is a new listening experience that will virtually make you feel as if you were at Leeds with the artist. This recording establishes the Band's live prowess as one of the tightest Bands ever. The best live rock album ever made" just about sums up the universal opinion of the first official live recording released by The Who. After repeated failed attempts on their 69-70 UK Tommy tour, the hall on the campus of Leeds University was intentionally scheduled for the main purpose of recording a live album. The results, although only six selections from a much longer performance, were a triumph. Riding the crest of the Tommy album and their monumental appearance at the Woodstock Festival, the original quartet of Townshend, Daltrey, Entwhistle and Moon channeled Mose Allison, Eddie Cochran and Chad Allen with cover versions of Young Man Blues, Summertime Blues and Shakin' All Over respectively, while delivering expanded and stripped down versions that turned their own Substitute, Magic Bus and My Generation inside-out. A perfect mix, flaunting warts and all; amp noise, feedback and distortion...Who cares! This album ROCKS! All original artwork and packaging including all the "bits" are part of this Classic Records authentic reissue of the original Track UK release. Cut from the original two track master tapes (amp lead pops and all) at Bernie Grundman Mastering by Chris Bellman on Classic's "All Tube" cutting system, this 200 GRAM Super Vinyl Profile pressing brings new insight into the genius in the nuance that has previously been obscured - even on original track pressings used for comparison in mastering. Recommendation not need - just buy it! "The best live rock album ever made." - The New York Times, 1970. Selections: 1. Young Man Blues 2. Substitute 3. Summertime Blues 4. Shakin' All Over 5. My Generation 6. Magic Bus

"Genesis, Nursery Cryme - 180 Gram"Classic Original Master 1st Generation 180 Gram Pressing, featuring Peter Gabriel "Out of Print, Last Copies". "The Musical Box" "For Absent Friends" "The Return of the Giant Hogweed" "Seven Stones" "Harold the Barrel" "Harlequin" "The Fountain of Salmacis" Enter Phil Collins and Steve Hackett for a set that elipsed its predecessor (seventies TRESPASS) in technical ability. The 10-minute opener "The Music Box" benefiting from jazz influenced playing was a far cry from the delicate folk rock tapestries and chiming 12-string guitars of its predecessor. The infusion of a semi-classical structural sensibility had become more prevelant. Fragile ballads are at a minimum replaced by driving classic rock epics full with heavy guitar, baselines, and sweeping mellotrone. The sound occasionally recalls the refined but uncompromising instrumental attack of the Nice (particularly in Tony Banks/Keith Emerson-ish blast of organ bravura). The interlocking guitar and folky moments are still present, however, providing contrast to NURSERY CRYME's bolder moments. The group's sophisticated compositional style and Peter Gabriel's eccenric lyrics are at their height on "The Return Of The Giant Hogweed", "The Fountain Of Slamacis" and "The Music Box".

"Jimi Hendrix, Blues - Double 180 Gram - CURRENTLY SOLD OUT"JIMI HENDRIX - BLUES - Classic Pressing - DOUBLE 180 GRAM Gram Heavy Black Vinyl LP 1st Time ever pressed on audiophile vinyl. THIS WAS TREMENDOUSLY LIMITED ONE TIME 180 GRAM PRESSING THAT WENT IMMEDIATELY OUT OF PRINT AND PROBABLY THE MOST LIMITED PRESSING OF THIS SERIES. 180 GRAM CLASSIC RECORDS AUDIOPHILE SEALED LP - THIS 180 GRAM PRESSING WAS PROBABLY CLASSIC RECORDS MOST LIMITED PRESSING EVER. WHEN THE COST OF PETROLEUM WENT UP TO $150 A BARREL THE COST OF PRODUCING VINYL IN 200 GRAM WEIGHTS WAS JUST TOO EXPENSIVE . SO FOR A LIMITED RUN CLASSIC RECORDS WENT TO PRESSING VINYL IN 180 GRAM WEIGHTS. THEN WHEN OIL DROPPED TO $50 A BARREL THE 200 GRAM WEIGHTS CAME BACK.

ESPECIALLY SINCE CLASSIC RECORDS NOW HAS MOST OF ITS PREVIOUS TITLES OUT OF PRINT. THIS IS OUR ONE & ONLY COPY AND GONE FOREVER. BLUES is a perfect example, making the case that -- on top of everything else -- Jimi Hendrix was one fine blues guitarist. Combining the fluid lines of B.B. King with the spikiness of Hubert Sumlin and the crying tone of Elmore James, Hendrix manages to both honor the music tradition while remaining uniquely himself. This is an excellent blues collection throughout. On top of this, I don't think any of this material is available anywhere else. Jimi Hendrix had many talents and could play in many different styles. He is as good a blues player as he is anything else. Here he takes blues standards and updates them in his own style. This material wasn't originally intended for commercial release, but has been remastered well enough to make an amazing LP. While Hendrix remains most famous for his hard rock and psychedelic innovations, more than a third of his recordings were blues-oriented. This LP contains 11 blues originals and covers, eight of which were previously unreleased. Recorded between 1966 and 1970, they feature the master guitarist stretching the boundaries of electric blues in both live and studio settings. Besides several Hendrix blues-based originals, it includes covers of Albert King and Muddy Waters classics, as well as a 1967 acoustic version of his composition "Hear My Train A-Comin'." - Richie Unterberger -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Track Listings 1.

"John Lee Hooker, The Healer - 180 Gram - CURRENTLY SOLD OUT"JOHN LEE HOOKER - THE HEALER 180 GRAM CLASSIC RECORDS AUDIOPHILE SEALED LP - THIS 180 GRAM PRESSING WAS PROBABLY CLASSIC RECORDS MOST LIMITED PRESSING EVER. WHEN THE COST OF PETROLEUM WENT UP TO $150 A BARREL THE COST OF PRODUCING VINYL IN 200 GRAM WEIGHTS WAS JUST TOO EXPENSIVE . SO FOR A LIMITED RUN CLASSIC RECORDS WENT TO PRESSING VINYL IN 180 GRAM WEIGHTS. THEN WHEN OIL DROPPED TO $50 A BARREL THE 200 GRAM WEIGHTS CAME BACK.

ESPECIALLY SINCE CLASSIC RECORDS NOW HAS MOST OF ITS PREVIOUS TITLES OUT OF PRINT. THIS IS OUR ONE & ONLY COPY AND GONE FOREVER. The Healer was oddly a major mainstream breakthrough for John Lee Hooker. The album was one of the first to feature a wide array of guest stars, including Bonnie Raitt, Keith Richards, Johnnie Johnson and Los Lobos and Carlos Santana. The album immediately captured widespread media attention because of all the superstar musicians involved in its production and has to date been John Lee's most successful release. Recorded in analog and mixed to quarter-inch 15ips analog tape, the sound is better than almost any other Hooker recording. Transferred from the original quarter-inch analog tapes by Bernie Grundman using Classic's "all-tube" cutting system, this version has a warmth and comfort this record has never had. If you're a John Lee Hooker fan, then this is a must! Great sound and classic Hooker guitar and vocal performances. "...a classy affair without flaws, the grittiest of blues legends kickin' the butts of Robert Cray, Los Lobos and a slew of others. Simply a must-have album." - Hi-Fi News -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Track Listings 1. The Healer 2. I'm in the Mood 3. Baby Lee 4. Cuttin' Out 5.

Needless to say, it was also his most accessible, and, in that sense it was a good introduction to So, the catchiest, happiest record he ever cut. "Sledgehammer" propelled the record toward blockbuster status, and Gabriel had enough songs with single potential to keep it there. There was "Big Time," another colorful dance number; "Don't Give Up," a moving duet with Kate Bush; "Red Rain," a stately anthem popular on album rock radio; and "In Your Eyes," Gabriel's greatest love song which achieved genuine classic status after being featured in Cameron Crowe's classic, Say Anything. This release features the additional tune "We Do What We're Told (Milgrames 37)" that was originally not on the Geffen vinyl issue in 1986. Side One 1. Red Rain 2. Sledgehammer 3. Don't Give Up 4.

LED ZEPPELIN'S PRESENCE, it's taken a while, but this 1976 release has earned its place with the other great titles from the biggest rock band of that decade.

PRESENCE is heavy on the rock side featuring high-octane guitar from Jimmy Page and no acoustic guitars or piano to be found. John Bonham's thunderous bashing and layers of guitar are highlights in ACHILLES LAST STAND while NOBODY'S FAULT BUT MINE, a reworking of a blue turn by Blind Willie Johnson gets goosed Zep-style by Page and company. Other highlights included FOR YOUR LIFE - ROYAL ORLEANS - CANDY STORE ROCK - HOTS ON FOR NOWHERE - and TEA IS FOR ONE.

THIS TITLE IS NOW TREMENDOUSLY RARE COLLECTORS PIECE. OUR LAST COPY FOREVER. 200 Grams - Very Limited Edition After releasing a "mother lode of Mothers" (of Invention) classics, by 1969 leader Frank Zappa was ready to break through other musical barriers that were still holding popular music in a conservative headlock. Being one if not the first album to be recorded using 16 tracks (twice the number being used at the time on both sides of the Atlantic), Hot Rats became a leading edge in both modern recording technology and the evolution of jazz/rock-fusion. Mostly instrumental, it features six original compositions; three loose jam pieces, the remainder being tight ensemble arrangements. Some of the finest players around come together in varying combinations, all-the-while showcasing FZ's guitar virtuosity. Among others, Lowell George of Little Feat fame lends guitar, jazz violinists extraordinaire Don "Sugarcane" Harris and Jean-Luc Ponty plus fellow Mother Ian Underwood's keyboard and woodwind work, complete the leader's advanced vision. Mastered and cut directly from the original analog master tape by Bernie Grundman under the supervision of Gail Zappa. 1. Peaches en Regalia 2. Willie the Pimp 3. Son of Mr. Green Genes 4.

TUBULAR BELLS - A quintessential "studio production" in pop music lore, Mike Oldfield conceived an eclectic mix of both standard and odd instruments, along with classical and rock elements, to achieve a steadily building, layered texture, totally unheard of at the time. After being shopped and rejected at other labels, Richard Branson chose it as the first release for his Virgin Records in 1972. Originally tagged with the working title Opus 1, Oldfield, who had been playing and recording professionally since his teens, oversaw the entire production and played most of the parts himself, eventually layering over 30 different instruments and sounds. Listeners had fun trying to identify each and remember the order in which they appeared. The original LP eventually sold over 16 million copies and topped the UK charts for weeks. The eerie opening section was famously featured in the soundtrack to the motion picture The Exorcist, winning the Grammy in 1974 for Best Instrumental Composition. Chris Bellman does the mastering honors on this reissue, using the original master tapes and Classic's all-tube cutting system.
