Description

LIGHTIN' HOPKINS - LAST NIGHT BLUES – 45 RPM SEALED 2 LP SET - IS OUT OF PRINT AND PROBABLY ONE OF THE LAST SEALED COPIES LEFT IN THE WORLD. THIS PRESSING WAS LIMITED TO 1000 PIECES ONLY. DO YOUR HOME WORK AND YOU WILL SEE IT NOT AVAILABLE AT ANY AUDIOPHILE DEALER LEFT IN THE WORLD.

Here's How it was done:

Using only the original analog master tapes, the renowned team of Steve Hoffman & Kevin Gray remastered and cut all of the titles at AcousTech Mastering, which features a pure Class-A disc-cutting system. AcousTech is located at Record Technology, Inc. the plant where the vinyl was pressed. It is a tremendous sonic advantage to have the pressing plant plating department & mastering room in the same facility as Steve & Kevin could cut a lacquer and plated immediately. This prevents the degradation of the grooves in a lacquer which is very fragile to quick deterioration.

And of course cutting at 45 speed is the audiophile choice for the highes quality. A 45-RPM record is sonically superior to a 33 1/3 variety because of a 35 percent reduction of groove curvature compared to a 33 1/3 cut.. It means that while you can't fit as much music into a 45, the undukations of the groove that your cartridge has to track are stretched over a longer distance. For these reissues, the music was displaced onto four sides, meaning each side contains about 10 minutes of music.

This is the ultimate reissues. The only way you'll get closer to this classic music is to listen to the master tapes or have been in the studio with the artist originally during the actual session.

There have been so few vinyl LPs produced over the last 5 years that you should never pass up the opportunity to upgrade your collection. They're each very limited in their pressings and disappear with extraordinary quickness from the vinyl market. This causes prices to skyrocket because once they are gone, they are gone forever! Don't second-guess yourself with this chance to upgrade your collection because before you know it, the opportunity will have passed forever.

45 Speed – 2 Sealed LP Set

For all the similarities of heritage and experience which they share, Lightnin' Hopkins and Sonny Terry were direct opposites. Where Lightnin' was leery of strange situations, dependent and suspicious, and the victim of his handicaps, Sonny was the strong one, a man on casual terms with his handicap - blindness - and one capable of warm, binding affection for the men he plays with. These personal qualities are reflected in the music heard here: Lightnin's sly charms and innocence set against Sonny's warm-hearted joy of life.
