Description

                                                THE BAND   

THE BAND - ROCK OF AGES (THE BAND IN CONCERT, RECORDED LIVE AT NYC ACADEMY OF MUSIC) - ORIGINAL 1972 CAPITOL RECORDS STEREO 2-LP SET (DOUBLE ALBUM) SABB-11045

ORIGINAL U.S. First Pressing.  ORIGINAL RED CAPITOL LABEL WITH   ROUND, PURPLE “C” LOGO ON TOP, EARLY 70’S STYLE

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL, AUTHENTIC, FIRST U.S. PRESSING; THIS IS NOT A REISSUE, AN IMPORT, OR A COUNTERFEIT PRESSING.

This is a rare Bob Ludwig-mastered pressing of this album, with his initials “RL” (Robert Ludwig) etched in the trail-off vinyl of the disc. All the wonderful elements of Bob Ludwig’s trademark mastering style are here: incredible clarity and balanced channel separation, vivid and spacious “ambience” sound, as well as wide dynamic and frequency range of the sound spectrum. 

ORIGINAL GATEFOLD COVER, MADE OF THICK CARDBOARD WITH GOLD LETTERING ON THE FRONT PANEL

ORIGINAL "TEXTURED" (CRUDE FINISH) COVER


 Forget the "Last Waltz" - here's the "First Waltz" - the Band captured live, for the first time, in action, in their prime.  The Band's 'Rock of Ages' has long been recognized as one of the finest live Rock & Roll sets ever recorded. Not much else comes close.
