THE 2 CLASSIC RECORDS 1ST AUDIOPHILE 180 GRAM RARE LIMITED EDITION RELEASES OF ALTERED BEAST & 100% FUN
Classic Records has proven to be an Audiophile Company second to none in the new millennium. But Classic Records, unlike other top Audiophile Companies, does not place Limited Edition numbers on their LP jackets.
2 years ago, Classic Records changed their vinyl weight from 180 gram to 200 gram. Mymusicfix knows no expert that has been able to decipher a true difference in quality with this 20 gram weight increase.
What this change did for Collectors of the finest vinyl pressings was establish a First Edition element to Classic Records Audiophile pressings. All Classic Records 180 Gram pressings are now Out of Print and Very Limited Edition Collector's First Edition Pressings AND CONSIDERED THE FINEST PRESSINGS EVER DONE BY CLASSIC RECORDS.
In the long term, First Editions will be what Collectors seek. When you look at Classic Records First Edition 180 Gram pressings.It could be one of the most collectible pressings ever in this 180 Gram First Edition.
If you are a collector of the top 100 Albums and Singles in rock N Roll history this pressing is a must for your collection. Don't Miss Out.
This Classic Limited Edition Audiophile LP was mastered from the Original Session Tapes to 180 Gram Heavy Virgin Vinyl (these 180 gram pressings are the only way to verify a collectors owns a 1st Edition Classic records pressing) and is long out of print and valuable in the rare audiophile pressing. It's like being in the studio with the artists. The sonics will "Blow You Away"
Don't Miss Out on on being one of the last people in the world to own this Vinyl masterpiece (which is selling for double this amount at the only other auduiphile dealer who has this pressing left).
100% FUN - Unfortunately Todd Rundgren coined the phrase first but Matthew Sweet is truly "a wizard, a true star". He reminds us with each new record of the potential of rock 'n' roll: ripe with guitars, heartfelt vocals and lyrics written with thought, a sly smile and a bitterness tempered by melodies that make your heart swoon. The time is now for Matthew Sweet to join the ranks of what the mainstream considers the big league. If so, avid fans and press around the world will finally be able to say, "We told you so."

ALTERED BEAST - TREMENDOUSLY RARE AND IS THE MAIN VALUE TO THE COLLECTION - Sixty's pychedelics rock revisited pop. The critically acclaimed album, Girlfriend opened the world's eyes to the talent of Matthew Sweet. His follow-up, Altered Beast has been praised by Newsweek, Time, USA Today and Countless others as another masterpiece. Count Matthew Sweet in, as an artist who's work is destined to be called classic

ABSOLUTELY ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS OF ALL-TIME.
BLUE SKY ON MARS - Matthew Sweet's melodic hooks fit so perfectly inside his rhythm grooves that together they acquire an irresistible logic. Sweet's Beatlesque confections avoid sentimentality thanks to the streetwise toughness he gleaned from his connections to such New York punk bands as Television and the Voidoids. If Sweet's melodies evoke an optimistic yearning for love, the words suggest that such connections are hard to come by. Sweet's debt to the Beach Boys is superficially obvious on the hot-rod tempo of "Come to California" and the amusement-park flavor of "Make Believe." Sweet really captures the essence of Brian Wilson's art, though, on songs such as "Behind the Smile," where he admits, "I haven't been a good friend for a long, long time; you know I wasn't happy behind the smile." Countering this confession are swelling, soaring harmonies that suggest that friendship and happiness are still the goals.

SUNSHINES LIES - In 1991 Matthew Sweet released Girlfriend, an alternative rock milestone, and quickly followed it up with two back-to-back classics, Altered Beast and 100% Fun, that cemented his reputation as an elder statesman of indie-rock. Now, nine years after his last major solo release and on the heels of side projects with The Thorns and The Bangles’ Susanna Hoffs, comes his long-awaited comeback album, Sunshine Lies, which hearkens back to the glories of his revered ’90s albums.
