.."It was the 1912 pressing from the master stamper at The Victor Company of Japan (JVC) plant in Yokohama, Japan during April, 1983."..

 A recording from the Victor Company of Japan for state of the art audiophile pressings. This MFSL LP was pressed in Japan before Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs eventually pressed their LPs in the United States. The LP was Half-Speed Mastered with the Ortofon Cutting System from the Original Stereo Master Tapes. This MFSL LP has a special static free, dust free inner sleeve and heavy-duty protective packaging.
The man behind the recording of Dark Side of the Moon is none other than Alan Parsons. If you want to hear what is his definitive recording with a little bit of 'Dark Side' thrown in then this is it.
I Robot was produced and engineered by Alan at Abbey Road Studios and is an audiophiles dream recording.
 MFSL UHQR were the most technologically advanced records of its time.  Among it's many features is a far advanced frequency and improved channel separation.  UHQR albums take longer to press and are heavier than traditional albums.  They were always boxed in box sets with special sleeves and packaging.  
I Robot is the second album by progressive rock band The Alan Parsons Project, engineered by Alan Parsons and Eric Woolfson in 1977. It was released by Arista Records in 1977 and re-released on CD in 1984 and 2007. I Robot is an art rock album that draws conceptually on author Isaac Asimov's science fiction Robot trilogy, exploring philosophical themes regarding artificial intelligence.  
 The album was intended to be based on the I, Robot stories written by Asimov, and Woolfson actually spoke with Asimov, who was enthusiastic about the idea. As the rights already had been granted to a TV/movie company, the album's title was altered slightly by removing the comma, and the theme and lyrics were made to be more generically about robots rather than specific to the Asimov universe.  The cover inlay read: "I Robot... The story of the rise of the machine and the decline of man, which paradoxically coincided with his discovery of the wheel... and a warning that his brief dominance of this planet will probably end, because man tried to create robot in his own image."  Wikipedia
