MOBILE FIDELITY SOUND LAB 180g AUDIOPHILE 45RPM BLACK VINYL 2xLP. LTD EDITION, NUMBERED.
"No slouches when it came to working in the studio on their first four albums, the Doobie Brothers take their musicianship and creativity up another notch or three on Stampede. The band’s first effort featuring ex-Steely Dan guitarist Jeff “Skunk” Baxter as an official member, the 1975 set impresses with excellent dexterity, songwriting, depth, and eclecticism. Collaborations with more than a dozen renowned artists further attest to the record’s scope, weight, and cohesiveness.
Sourced from the original analog master tapes, mastered by engineer Krieg Wunderlich, pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing in California, and housed in a Stoughton gatefold jacket, Mobile Fidelity’s numbered-edition 180g 45RPM 2LP affords Stampede the luxurious room of a 45RPM version for the first time. Due to the wider grooves, the gold-certified album benefits from extraordinary soundstages, ultra-quiet backgrounds, big dynamic swings, and three-dimensional imaging. Everything sounds crisp and clear. "
