About this product
Breakthrough Debut Launched Heart's Hall of Fame Career Dreamboat Annie Blends Electric and Acoustic Elements, Includes the Classics 'Magic Man' and 'Crazy on You'50th Anniversary Edition of 1975 Album Features Audiophile Sound Mobile Fidelity's Hybrid SACD Plays with Revealing Clarity and Full-Range ResponsivenessHeart's breakthrough debut, Dreamboat Annie, has often been framed in the context of a female-led band successfully matching the moves of it's male counterparts during an era when women weren't associated with rocking out - particularly on a mainstream level. While that take is true - Ann and Nancy Wilson practically stood alone amid a commercial age dominated by testosterone - it undersells the appeal, scope, and craftsmanship of an album that deserves to be revered strictly because of it's merit, not because of the gender of the group's principal members. Mastered at MoFi's California studio and housed in mini-LP-style packaging, Mobile Fidelity's numbered-edition hybrid SACD puts the record's artistic significance in proper perspective. It invites you to hear with stellar clarity the diverse architecture, passionate playing, and fervent emotions that help make Dreamboat Annie an all-time classic. This 50th anniversary edition also marks the first time Heart's opening salvo has been available in audiophile quality on disc in more than a decade.Press 'play' and experience the textures of the guitars, full range of Ann Wilson's voice, spacious backdrops of the arrangements, and rhythmic momentum - crucial components of Heart's songs - free of veiled tones and artificial ceilings. Ample separation between instruments and black backgrounds bring the music into detailed focus, whether it's the full decay of percussive accents, layered stacking of group harmonies, or depth of the bass lines. Helmed by Mike Flicker, Dreamboat Annie features advanced production

Vinyl LP pressing in gatefold sleeve. Originally released in 1976, Heart's debut is now celebrating it's 40th anniversary. Dreamboat Annie was an impressive hard rock debut. InchCrazy on You,Inch which spotlighted the piercing vocals of singer Ann Wilson and the chunky guitar bluster of her sister Nancy, entered the Top 40, and the more mystical InchMagic ManInch climbed to #9. Dreamboat Annie also exposed a more vulnerable side of the band with the title track. The album was recorded on an Ampex MM1000 16-track tape recorder (which formerly belonged to United Western Recorders) at the Can-Base Studios in Vancouver, BC, which were later renamed to the current Mushroom Studios. It was the first major hit album recorded there. Album Tracks 1. Magic Man 2. Dreamboat Annie (Fantasy Child) 3. Crazy on You 4. Soul of the Sea 5. Dreamboat Annie 1. White Lightning and Wine 2.

2-On-1 of Styx's first two A&M records that were originally released in 1975-76. Equinox produced Styx's first single with A&M, the highly spirited 'Lorelei', which found it's way to number 27 on the charts. Although it was the only song to chart from Equinox, the album itself is a benchmark in the band's career since it includes an instrumental nature reminiscent of their early progressive years, yet hints toward a more commercial-sounding future in it's lyrics. After Equinox, guitarist John Curulewski parted ways with the band, replaced by Tommy Shaw, who debuted on 1976's Crystal Ball album. Crystal Ball wasn't as successful as Equinox, but it was a better album, showcasing Styx's increased skill for crafting simple, catchy pop hooks out of their bombastic sound. Both titles have been digitally remastered. BGO Records. 2006. Album Tracks 1. Light Up 2. Lorelei 3. Mother Dear 4. Lonely Child 5. Midnight Ride 6. Born for Adventure 7. Prelude 12 8.
