MFSL2-498 - LOW #460/4,000
Mastered from the original master tapes, pressed on premium vinyl at RTI, housed in an old-school Stoughton gatefold jacket, and limited to 4,000 numbered copies, Mobile Fidelity's 180g 45RPM 2LP set of Nilsson Schmilsson features unadulterated transparency and visceral solidity. The Brooklyn native's three-and-a-half octave range and beautiful phrasing come across with captivating depth, crystalline purity, and an emotional scope that stretches from tenderness to melodrama to sarcasm and beyond. Appealing as Nilsson's bizarre quirks remain, given how they stamp his music with personality and charm, his tremendous singing ? of which Bud Scoppa memorably wrote possessed "a slight sawtooth buzz to add resonance when required" ? takes center stage.
