UK LIMITED PRESSING NIMBUS SUPERCUT ON PREMIUM VINYL WITH ORIGINAL ANTI-STATIC INNER SLEEVE.
Nimbus Supercut LPs were released as a mail order only promotion to Practical Hi-Fi or Hi-Fi Today magazine readers during the early 1980s and were available in limited quantities of around 1000 pressings per title All releases were mastered from the the original master tapes, through an all valve mastering process, using no limiting, to result in a high quality pressing which was as close as possible in sound to the original recording. Nimbus also had ICI produce an extremely pure vinyl for these cuts. All titles have a sticker on the main sleeve and 'Nimbus England' stamped in the dead wax.
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT MINUS. INNER SLEEVE VERY GOOD+ WITH NO SEAM SPLITS.
DISC: EXCELLENT. NO MARKS OR SCRATCHES. DOES NOT LOOK PLAYED MORE THAN ONCE, IF THAT, THIS DISC CAME FROM A LARGE AUDIOPHILE COLLECTION AND MOST OF THEM REALLY NEVER LOOK PLAYED MUCH, IF AT ALL. CLEAN LABELS.
Why buy a first or early pressing and not a re-issue or a ‘re-mastered’ vinyl album?
First and early pressings are pressed from the first generation lacquers and stampers. They usually sound vastly superior to later issues/re-issues (which, in recent times, are often pressed from whatever 'best' tapes or digital sources are currently available) - many so-called 'audiophile' new 180g pressings are cut from hi-res digital sources…essentially an expensive CD pressed on vinyl. Why experience the worse elements of both formats? These are just High Maintenance CDs, with mid-ranges so cloaked with a veil as to sound smeared. They are nearly always compressed with murky transients and a general lifelessness in the overall sound. There are exceptions where re-masters/re-presses outshine the original issues, but they are exceptions and not the norm.
First or early pressings nearly always have more immediacy, presence and dynamics. The sound staging is wider. Subtle instrument nuances are better placed with more spacious textures. Balances are firmer in the bottom end with a far-tighter bass. Upper-mid ranges shine without harshness, and the overall depth is more immersive. Inner details are clearer.
On first and early pressings, the music tends to sound more ‘alive’ and vibrant. The physics of sound energy is hard to clarify and write about from a listening perspective, but the best we can describe it is to say that you can 'hear' what the mixing and mastering engineers wanted you to hear when they first recorded the music.
