The Oscar Peterson Trio – West Side Story – Verve 200g 45 RPM Vinyl
One of the first Broadway musical scores to be overtly jazz-influenced was Leonard Bernstein’s West Side Story, a tale of rival street gangs in the inner city. In 1962, pianist Oscar Peterson put his light-swing signature on the already popular score, making it, in the words of one critic, “a delight to hear again” and earning him a Grammy nomination.
Originally released in 1962
The Spinners – Spinners 180g Mofi Vinyl
Sweeping Strings, Funk Rhythms, Brassy Rejoinders, Immaculate Harmonies, and Satiny Lead Singing Fill Thom Bell’s Melodic Arrangements: Few Albums Sound Creamier Than This Watershed Effort
The timeless music and expert arrangements are about the only things smoother than the powder-blue suits sported by the Spinners on the cover of their resplendent self-titled 1972 record. The band’s first album for Atlantic after departing Motown, Spinners ranks as an all-time soul classic – a filler-free set boasting immaculate harmonies, sweet melodies, and impeccably matched vocals. Thom Bell’s flawless production puts it all over the top. Yielding an ideal balance of lushness and grit, the collaboration between the Detroit-based group and studio veteran yielded a record that birthed the celebrated Philadelphia Sound. Now, you can finally experience it in audiophile-grade sonics.
The Thelonious Monk Quartet – Straight No Chaser 180g Audiophile Vinyl
180-GRAM 33RPM 2LP SET
This mid-period masterwork from jazz piano’s most uncommon voice find Monk and his quartet ( Charlie Rouse on tenor, Ben Riley on drums and Larry Gales on bass) exploring every texture, tone and melodic turn of seven expansive tracks. This group was subtle, mature and confident, easily supporting Monk’s more idiosyncratic side-tracks (check out the solo on “Locomotive” or the restless exposition on “Japanese Folk Song”) while allowing listeners freedom to move through or contemplate all the sublime subtexts Monk conjures from the endless well of his inspiration.
The Young Rascals – Groovin’ – Mofi – Limited Edition/ 45RPM 180G Mono Vinyl
Mastered From The Original Master Tapes For Supreme Sound
Simultaneously elevated and bypassed by the artistically prolific year in which it was released, the Young Rascals’ Groovin’ remains high-water mark of a collective Rolling Stone boldly proclaimed “the blackest white group of all” in 1970. Home to three Top 10 singles and a diverse array of pop music in step with the era’s exploratory creativity, the set belongs aside the Beatles’ Sgt. Peppers’ Lonely Hearts Club Band, Love’s Forever Changes, Jefferson Airplane’s Surrealistic Pillow, and 1967’s other pioneering recordings. Particularly now that it boasts definitive sonics.

Van Halen – 1984 – MoFi Ultradisc 180g 45RPM 2LP Box Set
AVAILABLE TO PRE-ORDER
MASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES AND PRESSED ON MOFI SUPERVINYL Less than six years after changing the music landscape with its self-titled debut, Van Halen repeated the enormous feat. Certified 10-times-platinum by RIAA, graced by three immensely popular singles, and adorned with iconic artwork, 1984 witnesses the band expanding the synthesizer elements introduced on several prior albums and seamlessly bridging pop and metal sensibilities into a cohesive melodic whole. Punchy and catchy, glamorous and glitzy, blustery and heavy, wild and pyrotechnic, fast and fun, 1984 is David Lee Roth, Eddie Van Halen, Michael Anthony, and Alex Van Halen hitting on all cylinders. Do not wait to get this landmark on Mobile Fidelity’s UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP box set, mastered from the original master tapes and pressed on MoFi SuperVinyl.
Van Halen – Diver Down – MoFi Ultradisc 180g 45RPM 2LP Box Set
AVAILABLE TO PRE-ORDER
PRESSED ON MOFI SUPERVINYL, THIS ULTRADISC ONE-STEP BOX SET SOUNDS INCREDIBLE Van Halen’s winning track record with cover songs can be traced back to its 1978 Diamond-certified debut. Yet the ambitious approach, which showed off the band’s diversity, creativity, flair, and fun, took precedence like never before on Diver Down. Featuring five covers, many of which became radio staples, the record sprung from the band’s desire to remain relevant while taking a breather after four massively successful records and their respective tours. More than four million copies later, suffice it to say Diver Downachieved its goal. Mastered from the original analog tapes, pressed on MoFi SuperVinyl, and strictly limited and numbered, Mobile Fidelity’s UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP set is the definitive version of the 1982 album.
Van Halen – Fair Warning – MoFi Ultradisc 180g 45RPM 2LP Box Set
AVAILABLE TO PRE-ORDER
MASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES AND PRESSED ON MOFI SUPERVINYL The song titles on Van Halen’s aptly titled Fair Warning don’t lie. The likes of “Unchained,” “Mean Street,” “Push Comes to Shove,” “One Foot Out the Door,” and more indicate the mood the band channels on its 1981 record. It’s the nastiest, darkest, and fiercest album of the group’s storied career. Guitarist Eddie Van Halen uses the forceful arrangements as a playground for his seemingly unlimited arsenal. Supported by a crack rhythm section and an inspired David Lee Roth, he performs with an almost impossible combination of punk-like intensity, technical finesse, lyrical fluidity, and unbridled emotion. For the fourth time in four years, Van Halen threw down the gauntlet to all challengers and emerged victorious. Mastered from the original analog tapes, pressed on MoFi SuperVinyl, and strictly limited and numbered, Mobile Fidelity’s UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP set sounds the alarm with unfettered clarity, dynamics, and immediacy.
