 DEXTER GORDON  DEXTER CALLING AUDIOPHILE LIMITED EDITION  ACOUS TECH MASTERING 45 SPEED DOUBLE LP SET AND COLLECTORS LOW NUMBERED 109  

COLLECTORS NOTE: THESE 45 RPM RECORDS IN THESE AUDIOPHILE MASTERPIECES NEVER PLACED A BAR CODES ON THE JACKETS SO THE COLLECTOR WOULD HAVE A PRISTINE JACKET JUST LIKE WHEN THE LP WAS ORIGINALLY RELEASED

45 SPEED AUDIOPHILE LIMITED EDITIONS LOW NUMBERED 109

Here's How it was done:

Using only the original analog master tapes, the renowned team of Steve Hoffman & Kevin Gray remastered and cut all of the titles at AcousTech Mastering, which features a pure Class-A disc-cutting system. AcousTech is located at Record Technology, Inc. the plant where the vinyl was pressed. It is a tremendous sonic advantage to have the pressing plant plating department & mastering room in the same facility as Steve & Kevin could cut a lacquer and plated immediately. This prevents the degradation of the grooves in a lacquer which is very fragile to quick deterioration.

And of course cutting at 45 speed is the audiophile choice for the highes quality. A 45-RPM record is sonically superior to a 33 1/3 variety because of a 35 percent reduction of groove curvature compared to a 33 1/3 cut.. It means that while you can't fit as much music into a 45, the undukations of the groove that your cartridge has to track are stretched over a longer distance. For these reissues, the music was displaced onto four sides, meaning each side contains about 10 minutes of music.

This is the ultimate reissues. The only way you'll get closer to this classic music is to listen to the master tapes or have been in the studio with the artist originally during the actual session.

 TAS Rated 4/5 Music, 4/5 Sonics in the August 2008 Issue of The Absolute Sound!
Incredible Jazz Records + the original analog master tapes + cut at 45 RPM + mastered by Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman at AcousTech + pressed on two 180-gram virgin vinyl LPs by RTI = THE ULTIMATE LP REISSUE!

The same formula that made the Fantasy 45 Series perhaps the most successful audiophile reissue collection ever is now being reapplied to Blue Note reissues!

Dexter Gordon connects immediately with the sublime rhythm section of Kenny Drew, Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones on this, his second Blue Note album. The material ranges from Drew originals to pieces from Gordon’s score for the Los Angeles production of “The Connection” to stunning performances of the standards “The End Of A Love Affair” and “Smile”. “Landslide”, Dexter’s tribute to Harold Land, is added to complete the session.

"... a marvelous sense of presence, life-like clarity, and explosive dynamic pop... ...superior sonics, with a big, open stage, an intesely vibrant, rich, and burnished sax sound, solid bass and piano, exeptionally percussive drums, and ringing cymbals." - Wayne Garcia, TAS August 2008
