DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
200g 45RPM 2LP-Set Mastered from the Original Analog Tapes by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio
"Julie Is Her Name [1955] skyrocketed to one of the best selling albums of all time. Julie London rose to the top ten of every list of female vocalists. The satisfying simplicity and quietness of the guitar-bass formula gained happy acceptance in the midst of all the noise, and it has been copied and re-copied. One's own success is always difficult to top. This is an old show business adage. Perhaps we're overly enthusiastic, but in this case we feel the good is followed by the better.
"Julie Is Her Name Vol. II [1958] has all the sincerity and warmth of Julie Is Her Name. The songs have the same tingling nostalgia. Howard Roberts' brilliant guitar work and arrangements capture every nuance of every mood. Red Mitchell's impeccable bass work couldn't possibly make a more musicianly marriage. And Julie's singing stature continues to grow and grow." - original liner notes
Analogue Productions has brought back Julie London's 1958 classic Julie Is Her Name Vol. 2 in dramatic, deserving fashion. Remastered from the original analog tapes by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio, and plated and pressed on double 200-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings, the crispness and vibrancy of this recording is spectacular. And they've cut this version at 45 RPM, meaning the 12 tracks are spread over two LPs for even better cartridge tracking for superior sound quality. Originally a single LP jacket, AP has also upgraded to deluxe tip-on gatefold packaging here and incorporates more archival photographs.
