About this product

Limited 180gm vinyl LP repressing. Digitally remastered edition of this 1981 album by the hard rock quartet. Fair Warning was the band's fourth album, which ended up going double platinum. With vocals by the wildly entertaining David Lee Roth, the guitar masterwork of Eddie Van Halen and the irreplaceable rhythm section of drummer Alex Van Halen and bassist/backing vocalist Michael Anthony, Van Halen were one of the late '70s and early '80s greatest rock 'n' roll bands. Mastering engineer Chris Bellman, who remastered the original albums at Bernie Grundman Mastering Studios, was enlisted for this new version. In order to produce the original sound the band intended, Bellman cut straight from the quarter-inch tapes.

    Van Halen is Crowned

    This is the album that proved to the masses that Van Halen had taken over as the best live act to see. The songs were instant radio successes and the tour was the hottest ticket that summer. This analog tape remaster here delivers a perfect sound stage. Hear the notes, relive the memory.

    Fair Warning rocks

    Saw Van Halen live in concert in 1981, on this tour. These songs are amazing! Wonderfully mastered and worth every penny. RIP Eddie.

    Fair Warning, get this album!

    A must have for the Van Halen fan! Heaviest rock album of the DLR era. The last of the “rock attitude” from Diamond Dave. Grab a listen and enjoy.

5.0(20)

Limited 180 gm vinyl LP pressing. With their 1978 eponymous debut, Van Halen simultaneously rewrote the rules of rock guitar and hard rock in general. Guitarist Eddie Van Halen redefined what the electric guitar could do, developing a blindingly fast technique with a variety of self-taught two-handed tapping, hammer-on's, pull-offs, and effects that mimicked the sounds of machines and animals. It was wildly inventive and over the top, equaled only by vocalist David Lee Roth, who brought the role of a metal singer to near-performance art standards. Mastering engineer Chris Bellman, who remastered the original albums at Bernie Grundman Mastering Studios, was enlisted for this new version. In order to produce the original sound the band intended, Bellman cut straight from the quarter-inch tapes.

John Coltrane - Trane: The Atlantic Collection   - VINYL LP

Vinyl LP pressing. Digitally remastered edition of this introduction to John Coltrane's revered Atlantic recordings. Trane The Atlantic Collection includes the hit single 'My Favorite Things,' the iconic 'Giant Steps, Naimi' and more, from the heavyweight champion of the jazz world. The album features unique artwork, audio remastered for this , and a new liner notes essay by Ben Ratliff, former NY Times jazz critic and author of the 2007 biography Coltrane The Story of a Sound. Working in the bebop and hard bop idioms early in his career, Coltrane helped pioneer the use of modes in jazz and was later at the forefront of free jazz. As his career progressed, Coltrane and his music took on an increasingly spiritual dimension. Coltrane influenced innumerable musicians, and remains one of the most significant saxophonists in music history.
