Intervention’s 2X 180-Gram LP Expanded Edition is a 21-track Beast that shows a master songwriter at his prolific best.
Yes – Fragile – Analogue Productions Atlantic 75 Series SACD
IN STOCK NOW
Fragile was Yes’ breakthrough album, propelling them in a matter of weeks from a cult act to an international phenomenon. Not coincidentally, it also marked the point where all of the elements of the music (and more) that would define the group’s success for more than a decade fell into place fully formed, writes AllMusic, giving Fragilea 5-Star rating.
Stone Temple Pilots – Tiny Music… Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop – Mofi 180g 45 RPM 2LP

1/2” / 30 IPS analog master to DSD 256 to analog console to lathe
If great art, as many believe, is inherently polarizing, then the Stone Temple Pilots’ Tiny Music… Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop easily ranks as the California-based band’s finest album. Simultaneously celebrated and castigated upon release in spring 1996, the group’s third full-length finds vocalist Scott Weiland and company expanding their “grunge” palette with a smart blend of glam rock, psychedelia, jangle pop, and other related styles. Having benefited from long-view reassessments that shed the biases and meanness of initial criticisms, the double-platinum effort is now largely and rightly seen as a creative masterwork. All the more reason why it deserves reference-grade production.Stone Temple Pilots – Tiny Music… Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop – Mofi Hybrid SACD

Miles Davis – Milestones – 180g 33RPM Mofi Mono Vinyl
Miles Davis’ Only Studio Album with His Original Sextet: Milestones Features John Coltrane and Cannonball Adderley
Mobile Fidelity’s Numbered-Edition 180g 33RPM LP Presents 1958 Benchmark in Riveting Mono Sound
1/4″ / 15 IPS analog mono master to DSD 64 to analog console to lathe
Miles Davis created just one studio album with his original sextet. He made every moment count. Pairing with Cannonball Adderley, John Coltrane, Red Garland, Paul Chambers, and Philly Joe Jones, the trumpeter not only laid the groundwork for the modalism that immediately followed but tailored a genuine modern-jazz masterwork laden with performances among the most explosive of his distinguished career. Due to its sandwiched position between the more famous ‘Round About Midnightand epochal Kind of Blue, Milestones remains, for too many music lovers, an overlooked classic.
