NAT KING COLE in special Vintage MONO MIXES from Analogue Productions on SACD/CD!

Thanks for giving us an inside look at how this release is coming together Steve. As a long-time naive music lover, I always just assumed that when tapes were recorded, there would be production notes attached that would make going back to the tapes and finding correct takes easy for all concerned. I guess that is just the anal organized personality in me coming out though!

As someone who loves this great music, I appreciate the forensic work that you are putting in to this project to make sure that it is the best that can possibly be issued. I applaud your dedication, and also Chad for wanting to release these titles. I can't wait to hear them!

Steve, this is the thread I come back to on a daily basis, eagerly awating new contributions from you and the other Nat experts here. As much as I'd love to hear these releases now, I'll wait for all parties involved to do their thing the right way and release these when they are truly ready.

What a treat this will be!

Million thanks to Chad and all at Analogue Productions for making these happen!

 

I realize these are going to be something like the Living Stereo SACD's, but I did not know there was a third layer involved. Isn't that hi-res content embedded/ shared on the same SACD layer, I mean both stereo/mono for SACD?

Besides, if there were triple layers, you would expect me to know about it, heh.

I'll be getting at least three copies of each title. One for me and the other two will be Christmas Stocking stuffing...

 

Unfortunately, I know that this is true. That's why I so appreciate the work that you do, and also Chad with Analogue Productions, and the other small labels around that are still willing to put good music out there for those of us who do care.

At a time when so much music is just manufactured "product," it is good to know that there are people out there that are passionate about lasting music that was made as "art," by people who were passionate about what they did. In my little world, this is the true music that matters and what I listen to on a daily basis.

Make that "16" sir. I have been wishing for these to be mastered by yourself forever...!!! Although I love everything that's being release by MM, AP, and AF that you are mastering, these NKC releases are at the top of my list. I've been saving my pennies eagerly...!!!!

Once again (broken record, here), thank you Steve, Kevin, Chad and AP.

 

17, please

 

18 here!

 

Yes, I hear 19 (here) !

With all due respect to Lennon, McCartney, Harrison & Starr I'm looking forward to these NKC discs way more than the Beatles stuff

 

Steve & Chad, I'm looking forward to these new LP issues from you! Last year I found this one, in it's original NM SEALED condition, for $5 bucks and I LOVE it!

I am sure these will sell more than 19 alone on this board.

 

I have never seen a copy of the original "Story" that looked that good! Evidently most people loved it and played it a lot.

The LP packages coming from Chad at Analogue Productions should be something to treasure.

 

I've never seen one that nice! Completely jealous!!!

Mark me down as #20. I'm in for all of these, and I'm loving the running commentary from our host.

 

Count me in as number 21 in the crowd. Any idea when these will be ready for pre-order?

Todd

 

Absolutely. Steve, if you have any other notes or just things you want to share about these releases while we wait for them, please feel free!

 

Thanks Steve! Can't wait!

 

Which year?

 

Cheeky!
