Mastering options

Is there any specific reason why you're only interested in new vs old analog vinyl (nonwithstanding price) ?

I'm actually interested in all of them but there's something cool about having some made from never released tapes in 2006, without any digital mastering! The older analog Gospel recordings I especially dig. Sincere, raw sound. Thanks for the additional info btw.

I have tinitus, not so great Sony h/phones and h/phone fatigue from dropping into this BBS too much BUT to my, sorry set of, ears the dolby version sounds GGOOOOOOOOODD. I believe I could hear stuff in the non dolby version that, whilst it wasn't distracting, wasn't contributing to a better piece of music.
Nice work by the way.

Hi everyone,

Got my first release in today. Small workout carrying 23 record boxes up a flight of stairs. One of the best soul albums ever recorded in New Orleans in my humble yet informed opinion. Can listen and purchase this completely analogue recording here:

Please note majority sales are royalties paid to Family Underground musicians who persevere and struggle daily in whats left of New Orleans since Katrina.

Not all shameful promotion myself but every other soul label I've contacted, all the major players, cut their records from CD masters and I have very little respect for their disregard of the music and history albeit intentional or not.

kind regards,
Tenyu Hamaki
