Crosby, Stills and Nash - Crosby, Stills and Nash (Ultradisc One Step LP) / 45RPM 2LP Mobile Fideli

The quadruple platinum debut album of the first true "superband" is considered groundbreaking for the development of popular music. After multi-instrumental virtuoso Stephen Stills left the Buffalo Springfield band, David Crosby turned

his back on the Byrds and Graham Nash on the Hollies, they played together in top form - harmonious, innovative and with strong lyrics.Released in 1969 on Atlantic Records, the original recording of "Crosby, Stills & Nash" now enjoys a

remastered reissue through Mobile Fidelity that will delight audiophile fans of the legendary folk-rock band. The polyphonic vocal harmonies typical of CSN are brought out intensely in the remastering of the original master tapes. Great songs

like "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes", "Marrakesh Express", "Long Time Gone" or "Helplessly Hoping" inspire with a detailed presentation, in which even the interwoven guitar parts work wonderfully. Realistically and atmospherically reproduced, the re-release

of this classic is a real listening pleasure.

The One Step LP boxes from MFSL are the benchmark in the field of audiophile re-issues and qualitatively even above the other productions of the probably most famous remastering studio in the world. The original analog tape was transferred by

the MFSL sound engineers into a 4xDSD file after an individual adjustment of the track position of the tape and the bias setting for each individual title. This was then used to create the lacquer cut in the Sebastopol studio.

What's special about the LPs is not only a new vinyl granule without carbon colorants used at RTI in Camarillo, but more importantly the one-step process of LP manufacturing. The only place you can get closer to the sound of the master tape is at MFSL's

studio in California. By this is meant the following: In normal LP productions, the lacquer cut is turned into an initial "father stamp with inverted groove structure." From this, a "mother stamp" with correct groove structure is then created. From this, the actual

press stamp with inverted groove structure is then created and consumed for pressing the actual LP with correct groove structure. This approach allows almost any number of LPs to be pressed with just one coating cut.

In the One-Step process, this is all done much more simply. The actual coating cut itself is converted directly to the press die used to make the LP. So two steps of mechanical conversion are eliminated. Unfortunately, each coating cut can only produce a limited

number of LPs. So if more than a few hundred LPs are to be produced, several lacquer cuts are needed. MFSL has issued the motto that a new set of press stamps should be used every 500 copies. This means that for a run of 7,500 copies, fifteen sets of the f

our lacquer cuts are used. However, since things sometimes go wrong in production, 18 sets are usually created at once. That means 72 lacquer cuts are made for the double LP. By hand, one after the other. Every day, the created lacquer cuts are flown by express

to RTI for reworking and then a test pressing must be created for each side and also listened to in MFSL's studio. A time-consuming and also expensive process, resulting in an expensive product and high collector demand. The delivery is made in an elaborate box.

The serial number is entered by hand on the back. MFSL states that there will be no further re-pressings.

Limited to 12.000 copies.

We recommend the use of "L'Art du Son" LP cleaner to wet wash your vinyl. Even new records of high quality production will benefit from this.
