About this title:
Numbered Ltd. Edition 180 Gram Audiophile Virgin Vinyl 45 RPM LP - 2 LPs Sealed
Sonny Rollins Alfie On Numbered Limited Edition 2 x 180g 45RPM Vinyl Of Only 1000 Copies
New 180g 45RPM Audiophile Vinyl from ORG!
ORG is proud to present the ORG Ultimate Edition, a brand new series of great LP titles from the Impulse, Verve jazz and Chess blues catalogues. Cut at 45RPM by Bernie Grundman on his newly upgraded mastering system and tube powered lathe, these LPs will be plated and pressed by Pallas in Germany and sleeved in deluxe heavy duty gatefold jackets printed in Europe. They represent the very finest examples of the vinyl LP format available today.
Bernie Grundman Mastering recently upgraded his LP mastering and cutting system prior to starting work on the ORG LP reissues. These upgrades, together with the plating and pressing from Pallas Germany, will give the ORG LPs a sound never experienced before.
Bernie Grundman's Updated Mastering System:
• New customized dual mono power supplies
• New tape pre-amplifier: an upgraded hybrid design with single-ended in-out that is specifically triode on the input for the gain and EQ and feeds into a discreet solid state circuit that drives the output
• Brand new tape heads for the Studer playback tape machine including a complete hardwire with Cardas cables
• The power supplies on tube cutter amps have been updated and rewired with Cardas cable on the head leads and feedback
• The Studer in Bernie's cutting room is essentially transport only i.e. it is used for the superb stability of its mechanical parts. All the electronics (from the tape heads through to the cutting head on the lathe) have now been totally customized and hard-wired point to point
• The tube cutting amps used for the ORG LP reissues have just been re-tubed with ex-US military grade tubes from Sylvania
Original music to the score of the film classic Alfie, penned by legendary tenor player and, in this case, composer Sonny Rollins. The album, arranged and conducted by Oliver Nelson features Rollins and an all-star cast, including notable sidemen such as Kenny Burrell, Jimmy Cleveland, J.J. Johnson and Roger Kellaway.
