Dusty Springfield - Bacharach, The Look of Love.
Factory Sealed, Stored in a Climate and Light Controled Enviroment. Condition is New Factory Mint.
Side 1 is set at 45 RPM and side 2 is set at 33 1/3.
From Casino Royale, everyone's favorite track on this highly-collectible album, "The Look of Love" is sung by the silky and sultry voice of Dusty Springfield at her peak. This is a comparison disc cut at 33 1/3 RPM on one side and at 45 RPM on the other. The amount of information and level on both sides is the same with the only difference being the speed at which the lathe was travelling during cutting. The difference is that a cartridge can better track the 45 RPM side compared with the 33 1/3 RPM side and the difference is worth changing the speed of your turntable -- at 33 Dusty sounds alive, at 45 she is in the room with you.
We also carry more than 50,000 titles in the sealed vinyl format so if there are others you seek,

We are happy to combine shipping and offer a discount on orders of two or more records.

About Clarity Vinyl:
Clarity Vinyl represents the ultimate in vinyl formulations because it is comprised of over 90 percent of the highest
quality co-polymer available – a key component in vinyl pellets used for manufacturing vinyl records. Further,
Clarity Vinyl has no carbon black additive, common in vinyl formulas for LPs. Carbon black contains trace metals
that become magnetized and cause "electrical distortions" in cartridges during playback that smears the sound.
By taking out the Carbon Black, Classic Records is able to dramatically reduce the "electrical distortions" and
thus bring more "Clarity" to the playback process, providing a more realistic musical experience to the listener
and LP enthusiast.
About 45rpm & Clarity vinyl 45rpm records
45-RPM records have long been recognized as providing a higher fidelity musical experience resulting
purely from the cartridge being able to extract more of the nuance from the complex vertical and horizontal groove
modulations in stereo LPs. Further, Classic Records 45-RPM single-sided pressings dramatically reduce the mechanical
resonances created by the cartridge during playback by allowing these resonances to be more fully transmitted to and
absorbed by the turntable platter. Classic Records Clarity Vinyl 45-RPM pressings are designed and manufactured to
provide the lowest distortion in every aspect of LP playback resulting in putting the listener as close to the music as possible.
