Aftab Posted March 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 A little more info via Facebook... ”For the Blue Note 80 series we use an analog source whenever one is available (i.e. Herbie Hancock "Takin' Off" & Dexter Gordon "Doin' Allright" in the 1st batch). Some more recent titles like Robert Glasper "Canvas" have a digital master. Kevin Gray is mastering, and vinyl is being pressed at Optimal in Germany. Hope this answers your questions. Have a great day.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corto maltese Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 "Distinct from the Tone Poet Audiophile Vinyl Reissue Series, this 2nd series curated by Don Was and Cem Kurosman features mid-priced 180g vinyl releases in standard packaging" In the works: a 3rd series featuring budget-priced 140g crap vinyl releases in inferior packaging. It's a comforting thought that each market segment will be catered to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
