XTC COLLECTION OF THESE RARE 5 AUDIOPHILE CD'S FOR THE COLLECTOR WHO IS LOOKING FOR THE FINEST PRESSINGS

THIS COLLECTION STARTS WITH THE RARE AND VALUABLE 24 KARAT GOLD MFSL AUDIOPHILE MASTERPIECES THAT HAVE BEEN OUT OF PRINT SINCE THE 90'S SKYLARKING & ORANGES AND LEMONS

Each CD was pressed directly from the original studio master session tapes ; the purest source of musical information and engineered to produce the finest CD sound quality available.

Every compact disc delivers the music to you with all the depth, dynamics, and richness of the live recording session.  We invite you to hear the three-dimensional quality of the music just as the artist intended for it to sound.

The proprietary mastering technology extracts and transparently stores more musical information from the original master tapes than any other method in existence.

For the discriminating listener, the results include: a wider range of frequencies, increased depth and room dimension cues, clarity, and separation of instruments.

The technology substantially decreases characteristics such as hardness and glare bringing the sound of CD even closer to the warmth and openess of analogue.

Why Buy 24K Gold CDs? Aluminum particles are rough, resulting in pits and irregularities on the playing surface. Gold particles are uniform and have a constant rate of reflection giving an even, reproductive sound quality. Also, 24K Gold CDs will not oxidize or tarnish and will last for years longer than traditional aluminum CDs

This is a true Collector’s find for those individuals who want to own the finest and rarest pieces of musical history.  It is similar to owning the artist’s own Rare Gold Record Album in a Gold CD pressing.  You will be one of the last people in the world to own these Limited Edition Long Out of Print Masterpieces that will add true value to your Collection. 

MFSL LIMITED GOLD EDITION. This 24-Karat Gold Limited Edition FACTORY SEALED CD is an audiophile collectors item that simply gives the feeling of being directly in the studio with the artist.

This recording is mastered from the Original Session Tapes and the disc is custom pressed using 24-Karat Gold (known for its superior qualities and resistance to oxidation). This Out of Print Gold bonafide collectible disc has all Liner Notes, Photos, and Artwork from the Original LP faithfully recreated.

A SONIC WORK OF ART. These Out of Print gems are the FINEST of the audiophile CD market. Many over the last year have doubled or tripled in value. The future of these collectibles is so exciting because each piece is a sonic work of art that will never be reproduced using this expensive 24-Karat Gold mastering process. You will be one of only a few thousand in the world owning this audiophile classic.

Album Notes
XTC: Andy Partridge (vocals, guitar); Colin Moulding (vocals, bass); Dave Gregory.All tracks have been digitally remastered using 24 Bit technology.Using a 60s Milton Glaser-type cover illustration, this purported to be a retro album. In reality it was another extremely fine XTC album, their ninth in a series of classy, offbeat pop exercises from the musically fertile brain of Andy Partridge, who hated touring and loved to stay at home as a reclusive pop star. This is probably their best album and features Partridge's most complete and satisfying song. "The Loving" and "The Mayor Of Simpleton" are both excellent compositions, but they pale against the exceptional "Chalkhills And Children." On this, Partridge celebrates that his home (the nearby chalkhills) and children keep him sane and well-grounded against the possible excesses to which he would succumb as a touring popster.

 - GO2 - ENGLISH SETTLEMENT - BLACK SEA  - Japanese OBI MINI REPLICA LP TITLES making a 3 CD Set-  

 WHAT IS A JAPAN "MINI/REPLICA-LP-SLEEVE" CD? 


Have you ever lamented the loss of one of the 20th Century's great art forms, the 12" vinyl LP jacket? Then "mini-LP-sleeve" CD's may be for you. 

Mini-sleeve CDs are manufactured in Japan under license. The disc is packaged inside a 135MM X 135MM cardboard precision-miniature replica of the original classic vinyl-LP album. Also, anything contained in the original LP, such as gatefolds, booklets, lyric sheets, posters, printed LP sleeves, stickers, embosses, special LP cover paper/inks/textures and/or die cuts, are precisely replicated and included. An English-language lyric sheet is always included, even if the original LP did not have printed lyrics. 

Then, there's the sonic quality: Mini-sleeves have dedicated remastering (20-Bit, 24-Bit, DSD, K2/K2HD, and/or HDCD), and can often be superior to the audio on the same title anywhere else in the world. There also may be bonus tracks unavailable elsewhere. 

Each Japan mini-sleeve has an "obi" ("oh-bee"), a removable Japan-language promotional strip. The obi lists the Japan street date of that particular release, the catalog number, the mastering info, and often the original album's release date. Bonus tracks are only listed on the obi, maintaining the integrity of the original LP artwork. The obi's are collectable, and should not be discarded. 

All mini-sleeve releases are tremendously limited editions mainly pressed on future orders only and once released immediately out of print. This fact along with other latter features we've mentioned make these titles rare collectibles that sell in the collectors markets for $100's of dollars apiece.
