Notes

Gatefold Sleeve, HPV (High Performance Vinyl) 180 Gram, comes with Text/Lyric Insert, Info-Sticker on Cover, Mastered for Vinyl by Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman at AcousTech
 This is the best-sounding Steely Dan or Donald Fagen album that I've heard. Prepare to be blown away. ........................

This is a CAN'T MISS, SERIOUSLY AWESOME RECORD. We're predicting that it'll be among our best sellers of 2006. The music is GREAT. The sound is UNBELIEVABLE. Mastering is by Steve Hoffman and Kevin Gray at AcousTech. The pressing was done at RTI on virgin 180-gram vinyl. Very simply, Morph the Cat has all the makings of AN AUDIOPHILE CLASSIC. Don't wait for it to go out of print and up in price. ........................

Donald Fagen himself approved the test pressing – and he approved the very first version that Hoffman and Gray sent! Fagen is known for being a perfectionist, and he's rejected many a lacquer from some of the most famous mastering engineers. For Hoffman and Gray to nail it the first time around is a big deal. You'll hear why Fagen was impressed. ........................

Hoffman and Gray cut from the 15-inches-per-second, half-inch analog tape. "The reason it was done at 15," Hoffman said, "was to preserve the tremendous bass response." And the bass response on this record is just that – TREMENDOUS! ........................

This is Fagen's first solo album in 13 years and includes all of his signature musical depth, uniquely layered lyrics and entertaining subject matter. Morph The Cat is another contemporary classic from half of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame duo Steely Dan. It's the newest chapter chronicling the most sophisticated music in rock. ........................

"We're all gratified that he's so enthusiastic about vinyl," Hoffman said of Fagen. "Warner Bros. is also very enthusiastic about the medium." ........................

Indeed, Warner Bros. is serious about vinyl. Finally, one of the major labels has gotten it right when it comes to LP. So often, we get a great record with a good pressing only to have it ruined by a shoddy inner sleeve that scuffs the vinyl when it's packaged. Not this time. Warner Bros. went all-out. Morph The Cat comes in a deluxe, thick cardboard gatefold jacket and the vinyl is packaged in rice paper inner sleeves. This is a quality release – from the music, to the mastering, pressing and even packaging.

 IN GERMAN LANGUAGE .................
 Produktbeschreibungen .......................
Wer entspannte Popmusik mag, die so richtig schön cool grooved, wird von „Morph The Cat“ begeistert sein! Bereits die erste Nummer, das Titelstück „Morph The Cat“ gibt die Richtung an für dieses wunderbare Album: elegante Kühle trifft auf grummelnden Bass, mit einem Rhythmus, der bis ins Detail stimmt. Mit dieser Platte vollendet Fagen nach seinen Aussagen die Trilogie mit den LPs „The Nightfly“ (1982) und „“Kamakiriad“ (1993), und er perfektionierte seinen Sound noch weiter, wirkt nun reifer und erfahrener. Zum Klang des typischen Fender Pianos und der Orgel kommt je nach Song eine fein abgestimmte Mischung akustischer Instrumente wie Vibraphon, Trompete, Saxofon (Alto, Bariton und Tenor), Posaune, Klarinette, Mundharmonika und Flöte. Die Musik ist wie bereits schon bei seinen beiden anderen Solo-Platten entspannt lässig, die distinguierte Erscheinung seiner Kompositionen wirkt dennoch extrem verführerisch! Dass der Jazz hier klammheimlich Einzug hält, dürfte selbst der Jazzmusik abgeneigten Hörern als stilistisch geschmackvoll erscheinen und Romantikern ohnehin gefallen.
Die Anschaffung dieser LP lohnt sich in jeder Hinsicht, schon alleine wegen der grandiosen Musik, aber auch aus qualitativen Aspekten: ein wertiges Hartkarton-Klappcover mit Textbeiblatt birgt zwei erstklassig gepresste Vinylscheiben, die einen exzellenten Sound (Mastering Kevin Gray und Steve Hoffman!) bieten. ................................
