Knopfler, Mark - Local Hero - Super Hot Stamper

Knopfler, Mark - Local Hero - Super Hot Stamper*NOTE: This record was not noisy enough to rate our M to EX++ grade, but it's not quite up to our standards for Mint Minus Minus either. If you're looking for quiet vinyl, this is probably not the best copy for you. This vintage UK pressing has the kind of Tubey Magical Midrange that modern records can barely BEGIN to reproduce. Folks, that sound is gone and it sure isn't showing signs of coming back. If you love hearing INTO a recording, actually

It's front and center where any recording engineer worth his salt -- Ray Fowler in this case -- would have put it

maybe even as many as thirty to forty shootouts

It’s yet another remarkable disc from the Golden Age of Vacuum Tube Recording

I also recommend the CD

- Marchall Nack

raging guitar riffs

"First Rhapsody" (Bartok)

no doubt about it

most notably in the climactic middle section of "A Day In The Life

What The Best Sides Of First Light Have To Offer Is Not Hard To Hear

Justin Gordon - clarinet

you'll find his name in the credits for many of the best releases by the Randy Newman
