{"product_id":"bob-dylan-180-gram-mono-vinyl","title":"Bob Dylan [180 Gram 45rpm Mono Vinyl]","description":"\u003cp\u003eLimited Mobile Fidelity double 180gm vinyl LP edition of the mono version of this classic album pressed at 45RPM. Made when mono was still king, Bob Dylan's self-titled 1962 debut is as understated of an entrance as any significant musician as ever made. Already well-versed in American roots music, Dylan simultaneously pays homage to tradition and extends it by putting his own stamp on classic material that metaphorically functions as the soil of our contemporary songs and styles. Free of ego, and performed with masterful conviction, Bob Dylan ranks with the debut efforts of similar artistic giants Elvis Presley and the Rolling Stones. Mastered from the original master tapes, pressed at RTI, and strictly limited to 3,000 copies, Mobile Fidelity's restored 180g mono 45RPM analog version brings the contents of this seminal release as closest as they've ever come to master tape-quality in the original mono configuration. Transparent to the source, the simple sounds of Dylan's voice, acoustic guitar, and harmonica take on lifelike perspective and directness-the \"husk and bark\" to which Robert Shelton referred in his now-legendary New York Times review of a Dylan appearance at Gerde's Folk City. MoFi has made possible an inexpensive time-traveling trip back to the Greenwich Village coffeehouses and folk clubs in which Dylan cut his teeth, albeit in much better fidelity and without any annoying background chatter. Wider grooves mean more information reaches your ears. As the preferred mix at the time of the recording, the mono version presents Dylan as he and his producers originally intended. Since the separation of the stereo versions isn't as sharp, the mono edition places Dylan's vocals in the heart of the musical action and as one with the accompaniment. It paints listeners an incredibly accurate portrait of the attention-getting, concrete mass of sound that features no artificial panning and straight-ahead immersion into the music. This is how almost everyone first heard this timeless album-making the mono mix all the more historically valuable and truthful.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracks\u003cbr\u003e- Disc 1 -\u003cbr\u003e1 You're No Good\u003cbr\u003e2 Talkin' New York\u003cbr\u003e3 In My Time of Dyin'\u003cbr\u003e4 Man of Constant Sorrow\u003cbr\u003e5 Fixin' to Die\u003cbr\u003e6 Pretty Peggy-O\u003cbr\u003e7 Highway 51\u003cbr\u003e- Disc 2 -\u003cbr\u003e1 Gospel Plow\u003cbr\u003e2 Baby, Let Me Follow You Down\u003cbr\u003e3 House of the Risin' Sun\u003cbr\u003e4 Freight Train Blues\u003cbr\u003e5 Song to Woody\u003cbr\u003e6 See That My Grave Is Kept Clean\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bob Dylan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62532103438666,"sku":"821797245814","price":19.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1049\/2549\/5626\/files\/Bob-Dylan---Bob-Dylan-_180-Gram-Mono-Vinyl_-1689124526844.jpg?v=1782365423","url":"https:\/\/goldenspiraluk.com\/products\/bob-dylan-180-gram-mono-vinyl","provider":"Golden Spiral Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
