MFSL AUDIOPHILE LP GEORGE BENSON "BREEZIN'" OMR NEW/MINT/SEALED
YOU ARE BIDDING ON A MOBILE FIDELITY SOUND LAB (MFSL 1-011) ORIGINAL MASTER RECORDING OF GEORGE BENSON'S MONSTER HIT ALBUM "BREEZIN'". THIS STATE OF THE ART HALF-SPEED MASTERING WAS DONE BY STAN RICKER.
BELOW IS MOBILE FIDELITY'S DESCRIPTION OF THEIR EARLY VINYL PRODUCTION PROCESS AND GOALS FOR THEIR HALF-SPEED REMASTERING TECHNIQUE
Mobile Fidelity's significant contributions to the world of high-end audio software are grounded in the art of Original Master Recording, significantly advanced by the company with the introduction of the half-speed mastered Original Master Recording™ LP. As part of the company's resolve to provide the most accurate sonic reproductions possible, all Mobile Fidelity product is mastered directly from the original master tape as opposed to production copies often used for mass reproduction. This ensures a more complete and exacting transfer of the original musical data. In the case of the Original Master Recording™ (OMR) LP, the use of the master tape is combined with a unique procedure known as "half-speed" mastering, which literally slows down the cutting system involved in mastering vinyl so that musical information can be transferred from the source tape to the lacquer with greater precision. To this advanced mastering technique, Mobile Fidelity adds substantial refinements in the vinyl compound itself and improves methods of plating the lacquer. The result is a significant improvement in overall.
THE ALBUM IS STILL SEALED AND HAS BEEN CAREFULLY STORED. IT IS A GREAT LP FOR SOMEONE WANTING TO UPGRADE THEIR COLLECTION. SONG SELECTIONS INCLUDE.
HERE IS A BRIEF REVIEW AND LIST OF SONG TITLES FROM ALLMUSIC.COM'S WEBSITE
All of a sudden, George Benson became a pop superstar with this album, thanks to its least representative track. Most of Breezin' is a softer-focused variation of Benson's R&B/jazz-flavored CTI work, his guitar as assured and fluid as ever with Claus Ogerman providing the suave orchestral backdrops and his crack then-working band (including Ronnie Foster on keyboards and sparkplug Phil Upchurch on rhythm guitar) pumping up the funk element. Yet it is the sole vocal track (his first in many years), Leon Russell's "This Masquerade" -- where George unveiled his new trademark, scatting along with a single-string guitar solo -- that reached number ten on the pop singles chart and drove the album all the way to number one on the pop (!) LP chart. The attractive title track also became a minor hit single, although Gabor Szabo's 1971 recording with composer Bobby Womack is even more fetching. In the greater scheme of Benson's career, Breezin' is really not so much a breakthrough as it is a transition album; the guitar is still the core of his identity.
