IF THAT SIGINATURE STICKER IS NOT ON THE FRONT PLASTIC WRAP OR DOESN'T HAVE A LIMITED EDITION NUMBER THEN YOU ARE NOT PURCHASING THIS ORIGINAL 45 RPM ACOUSTECH RELEASE. 45 Speed - 2 LPS - LOW Numbered 140 OF THIS LIMITED EDITION 1000 PIECE Pressing. 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. Although their styles were regions apart and they’d never performed together previously, Georgia harmonica ace Sonny Terry and Texas guitar titan Lightnin’ Hopkins fit like foot in sock when producer Kenneth S. Goldstein paired them at Rudy Van Gelder’s studio on October 26, 1960. As LeRoi Jones observed in the original album notes, “There is a meeting of ways, where the light and the sad seem to come together simply as blues.” Selections six through 10 were recorded the following year, and Terry was back in the more familiar company of another great guitarist, his longtime partner Brownie McGhee.
