Holly Cole, Temptation.
200 Gram 45rpm, Sealed Clarity Vinyl (8) Record Box Set, Label= Classic Records, Blue Note (out of print)
Factory Sealed, Stored in a Climate and Light Controlled Environment. Condition is New Factory Mint.
Over the past decade, new talents such as Cassandra Wilson, Patricia Barber and Holly Cole have redefined the world of female jazz vocals. Cole's Temptation, a 1995 Blue Note release, is her musical tribute to the writings of Tom Waits. Besides being a superb audiophile recording (perfect in every production detail, from the rendering of Cole's amazing voice to the incredibly natural sound captured by producer Craig Street's team), this album has garnered kudos for her interpretation of Waits' unique compositions. Standouts include a catchy version of "Jersey Girl," which made it onto a number of radio playlists, and a rendition of "The Briar and the Rose," brilliantly augmented by the Canadian Brass. Also included are "Take Me Home," "Train Song," "Temptation," "Falling Down," Invitation to the Blues," "Frank's Theme," "Little Boy Blue," "I Don't Wanna Grow Up," "Tango 'til They're Sore," "The Heart of Saturday Night," "Soldier's Things," "I Want You" and "Good Old World."

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. 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.
