Rocky Mountain Audio Fest 2012 Sounds & Sights
The only thing
digital about this picture was the camera used to take it. Ying Tan (left), head of
Original Music Group (ORG), poses with Mat Weisfeld of turntable maker VPI. Ying holds a
test pressing of one of his upcoming releases on ORG's soon-to-be-standard clear vinyl
formulation. We talked with him before the show opened, hearing about the array of titles
he's seeking. One that's already in the bag for ORG's 45rpm treatment is The
Royal Ballet Gala [RCA LDS6065], the original RCA Soria-series spectacular newly
remastered by Bernie Grundman on his upgraded all-analog mastering system using master
tapes shipped from the Decca vaults in London. There will 2500 of the four-LP sets
pressed, each housed in a linen-covered embossed box.
Needless to say, the analog renaissance continues to roll
along. |
