Your channel and The “In” Groove are costing me hundreds and hundreds of dollars that I don’t have.

Analogue Productions deserve the highest praise for their work. I can't afford as many as I'd like but the ones I have are superb.

Again MIchael, a simple, useful, motivational video. 5 stars!

Tennessee Ernie Ford, great album, amazing voice, and those low notes!!

I purchased L.A. Woman based on your recommendation on a previous video. It is stunning; I've never heard it sound better.

Great video, in my opinion, Analogue Productions is one of the rare companies which offers consistently high quality. Thanks for sharing.

Hello from Montreal, your channel is simple and honest. And yes costing me money!

I have loved every Analogue Productions title I have. They all have a very solid "presence" to them that is so engaging. Sometimes even more than other audiophile pressings. The Doors albums to me sound so much better than I have ever heard them. Like magic! Thanks for another great video!

Thank you for another great video. I have 14 of the 20 albums you listed. Your channel continues to cost me money. :)

Just got the Analog Productions version of LA Woman. All I can say is wow. Think I will be picking up the self titled and Morrison Hotel now as well.

Great Posting - very enjoyable- thank-you!

Thank you very much for the wonderful selection. Many years ago I was listening to NPR radio interviewing Tony Bennett, they asked him what would be the best song you ever performed, he said Blue Velvet, he sang it on radio and it blew me away. I went looking for his version of BV, and found out it was only performed live at Carnegie Hall. I bought the double cds, it’s one of my favorite live albums. I’m going to order the 45’s and give it a listen.

I own all the doors analog productions and they sound amazing I also have the son house ,the folk singer , Nora Jones , time out ,love supreme , they all sound so amazing

Herbie Hancock headhunters 45 rpm and counting crows August 45 rpm also sound so amazing

Cologne calling. Hallo neighbour. Very good choices Here. And a broad musical taste. From ella to Beach Boys. Bravo. Just Show a bit more Passion. Und ab und zu mal lächeln. Alaaf. Nevermind. 😉

Look at that record cover. As a teenager I enjoyed my records and the Doors were my favorite.

Love your videos Michael but I think I've watched several advertisements in ten minutes time

Yes, your videos in particular, alongside other creators mostly called Michael were a great jump start for my audiophile record collection.

I ❤ love this😊😊😊😊😊

Please do part 2 and part 3 😊 for the in print albums from AP , please 🙏 , wonderful video as always

You videos are always fantastic

So great to see Skynyrd made your list, one of the greatest ever!

Thanks again for the recommendations Michael. I will be ordering some of these through Analogue and hope they can send to me in Sri Lanka 🇱🇰

Schön video Michael. I agree with your selection. It's fantastic! I would add: - Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Steves, - Love is the thing by Nat King Cole, - Scheherezade by Reiner and the Chicago, - Amused to Death by Roger Waters. All of them demo discos -at least for me- and gorgeous music. All of them in print/in stock!!

Great show

Yes, I'm going for the first three Lynyrd Skynyrd albums on 45rpm. Thanks for the recommendation!

The Analogue Productions issues of The Doors albums are simply superb. Im thinking of getting Morrison Hotel. The AP jazz titles are well worth getting. I got into audiophile records in 2015 and usually when i buy music these days its audiophile releases i go for. Great video Micheal.

Thank you for all your great videos. You got me to start the audiophile journey!!

Hello Michael really enjoy your channel I bought the LA woman by The Doors the only rock group that really matters to me and the sun house who is my favourite blues man when they first came out almost 60 maybe you more years ago and they’re still my favourites great to see that you are letting people know about the older recordings that still sound good take care

Been a fan of audiophile pressings for a while now. And find funny that the Elvis Presley records from Analogue Productions is not mentioned? In my ears all of them sounds fantastic. Enjoy your channel a lot, so keep up the good work!

So excited for this video.

I should also add that I’m a recent fan of audiophile recordings and your videos are extremely helpful. For example, I had never heard of In and Out Records, Vinyl Solutions or Impex before I started watching your channel. Yours is the channel I check daily to see if you have new videos.

Great just the video I’ve been looking for 👌🏻

Great video, as always!

Some great reviews I really enjoy all your videos you are one of the best to watch on weather or not to make the purchase

Missing on your list, which would be pretty high up on my list would be the sound of jazz.

Michael I really enjoy your channel the doors and Son House you’re a man after my own heart I bought the first stores album two weeks after it came out how to move mono pressing regret getting rid of it didn’t understand the value of mono at that time Senos I’ve been listening for 50+ years there’s a not bad book That talks about his reemergence in the 60s call preaching the blues I can’t think of the author at the moment and also Norah Jones Ravi Shankar‘s daughter I have a good friend who lives next-door to her mother in Dallas and her mother was very pleased with the way that the blue note labelled treated her Keep up the good work and I’ll keep listening take care

Hi Michael. Just want to say I absolutely love your channel and look forward to the videos. Your passion and insights are very interesting. My wife though is convinced that I am the only person would would possibly sit through videos about vinyl record collecting! I assure here you have many fans.

Great video Michael - I 've found that John Coltrane for a good price here in the UK so have ordered. Pushing beyond my usual world of rock and metal into jazz now

We congratulate you with 5000 subscibers!! This is already a huge success!! 🥳🍾🥂 🍀

Thank you for taking the time to shoot this video, I found it very interesting, certainly you have a very wide musical taste. Forgive me for commenting on a previous video, namely the half speed masters subject. I have only two records in this series from Abbey Road and honestly I find them to be no improvement on the original. I can’t help thinking that it is a marketing ploy rather than an honest attempt to provide better sounding records. Cynical exportation in my opinion.

4 stops for ads during this video. When not skipping all the ads, I really enjoyed your video! :) I'd not really heard of Analogue Productions previously, but after seeing this am keen to seek some out. I think my copy of Roger Waters's 'Amused to death' is issued by them.

Thanks to this video and respect for your advice and opinions, I just ordered 'LA Woman' and the Doors debut album from Analogue Productions. I can barely wait to hear them! A seller on Discogs said that The Door's debut from AP is only being sold now on 180gr vinyl rather than the 200gr. I wonder if there is a difference in quality? I didn't want to risk it, so I found a different seller and got the 200gr version. Thank you so much for all your advice. It's protecting us from buying those well-hidden "stinkers" out there on vinyl.😊

I just ordered the complete set from analogue productions of the doors! Can’t wait to give them a listen

Another great Video - Absolutely loving your Channel - I would consider myself to be an audiophile and I have picked up so many great recordings based on your recommendations - Northern New Jersey loves you :)

Michael thanks for your support because today there are a lot of records with poor quality. Your suggestions increase continuosly my wishlist. I changed my gear with Cornwall IV and ampli McIntosh MA252 and now I can’t accept vynil with poor quality.

Once I saw the title, I knew this was going to be a great video. The only recommendation I am not entirely with is Pet Sounds. I had the 2016 180 gram vinyl edition and thought the mastering was not great. Maybe the one presently available is better? That said, I received my copy of Bill Evans at the Montreux Jazz Festival on 45. 😮Simply stunning! Jack DeJohnette is captured in a way I had not heard before. Very glad you recommended it!

Love Analogue Productions like I do MFSL. The Doors box set by Analogue Productions is must for fans of The Doors. Right now I only have the SACD box set as a placeholder until I can find the vinyl box set for a reasonable price.

Michael your videos are excellent

Hi Michael, Hitari is one of my all time favorite soundtracks, I was unaware that was available. Karl and Fredrick probably love the African feel to the music. I do need to get Muddy Waters Folk Singer, just a must for any blues collection. Thanks for the heads up on these. Steve

I would like to see The Monkees, and Bobby Sherman albums given the Analogue Production treatment.

I've only got 2- Freddie Hubbard's Hub Cap and Paul Chambers Whims of Chambers. Both are 45 pm and sound great.

I did like it and thank you! 👍👍👍

I have all the doors on 45 rpm by Analogue productions and everytime I listen to them I wish they could do the who and led zeppelin, there 45 series vinyls are outstanding, I have tge classic records zeppelin titles but I believe AP could surpass them. Michael you have some fantastic vinyl.

I don't think it is in print but definitely around and obtainable last time I looked. Duke Ellingtons Back to Back 45RPM This record has an amazing soundstage and 3D separation of the musician and glorious dynamics

Sadly, after I watched this many of the jazz titles you mentioned are back ordered. Hopefully, they come back in stock. One album not on your list but which you included on your top 20 Jazz list last year is Bill Evans at Montreaux. That’s a fantastic sounding record.

Great channel and excellent recommendations! I have the original first pressings of 4 of these albums in NM quality, but would love to try the modern audiophile versions! Some of the albums are already too expensive to buy as first pressings and even as reissues, so I would probably end up buying all 20 albums 😊 I wish you and your channel a lot of success! Greetings from your southerly neighbour down in Switzerland.

Great Video! I would add Miles Davis "Seven Steps To Heaven", even if its 33 RPM, sounds fantastic.

I'm a recent subscriber (last month or so). I am really getting into better sound quality more.I have a couple of AP productions. Doors - S/T and L.A. Woman. Nora Jones - Come Away with Me Son House - Father of Folk Blues Dave Brubeck - Time Out (33RPM) Coltrane - A Love Supreme and Ballads Getz/Gilberto - the 33RPM version

I LOVE SON HOUSE!!!!

Would like a uhqr version of the who Quadrophenia, pink floyd the wall on uhqr or a one step but 45 rpm. Might be on my wish list for a long time.

I’m intrigued with what I hear of the sound quality of the 45 rpm releases and will buy one at some point to check out. I own a good number of the records you highlighted on LP so I’ll be on the lookout for a reasonably priced copy if that’s possible. Thanks, enjoyed it.

I did not get the 33 1/3 RPM Love Supreme when it was readily available as I have the 45RPM version. I’m kicking myself now!

The original pressing of 'L.A. Woman' is a great recording in its own right,very dynamic and forceful. I'm sure that is one reason the new mastering came out so well. I would be interested in your doing a comparison of the two!

I wish AP would release an audiophile version of the Beach Boys Christmas album.

Junior Wells Hoodoo Man Blues Sam Cooke The Best of Sam Cooke Elvis Presley 24 Karat Hits Rimsky Korsakoff Fritz Reiner Scheherazade 45rpm version Bach Starker Cello Suites 6LP Box Set Royal Ballet Ansermet 5LP 45 version

Accoustic Sounds should have a depot in Europe with all the orders coming their way....checked out Tony Joe white....wonderful

Thank you very much for the tips! I feel like one of the previous speakers .... watching the channel run the risk of going bankrupt ;-) .... thank you very much for your choice! I would like to make a 'small' suggestion ... the discussion often revolves around new editions of historically brilliant recordings. If possible, I would really appreciate getting to know new recordings ... think of The Acid: Liminal, Ry X: Dawn; Fink: hard believer; Kari Bremnes and much more ... or do you also offer a discussion forum on FB or Instagram? Thanks and best regards! Michael

The only title from the Analogue Productions label that I have among the ones you showed is "Time Out", which is absolutely fantastic. I also have The Doors' debut album, Miles Davis' "Seven Steps To Heaven" and Jeff Beck's "Blow By Blow". I'd love to get the 45 RPM version of Herbie Hancock's "Head Hunters", but it's expensive.

Night Beat by Sam Cooke surely almost made it. It's an incredible sounding release. The only thing I don't like is it's 2xLP non gatefold

I do not disagree with any so I would have to have a top 22. I would add Dean Martin, dreamin with dean and Cat Steven’s , tea for the tillerman. My third choice was Tn Ernie Ford which you picked. That record will make the hair on the back of your neck stand up.!

You forget to mention 'The Wonderful Sounds of Michael's Voice' Lol!!

Cat Stevens-tea for the tillerman

The UMe series are not technically from Analogue Productions, which is a reissue label that licenses titles from the main labels. In the Verve Series, they simply hired Chad from Acoustic Sounds to curate the titles. The Analogue Productions Verve 2x45 titles are long out of print.

The frustration is that when one thinks of "audiophile" records, one is almost always looking backwards. Those are all old-person records. New music releases should receive the same respectful presentation. Cheers, Tom

And where were the two 45rpm box sets by Nils Lofgren "Acoustic Live" and Harry Belafonte "Live at Carnegie"? Both are available and sonically superior.

Michael, I like your videos and I am even more into Jazz since I watch your recommendations 😀. But I get the feeling that in the vinyl collecting scene FOMO (fear of missing out) is also a big driver....don’t know yet if that’s a good or a bad thing.

Great video. My very recent journey into audiophile releases have been Ron Carter from In and Out (after your recommendation), and Di Meola, Lucia, and McLaughlin live in San Francisco from Impex, and a Speakers Corner release of a Deutches Grammofon Bartok album. I have gotten the bug, and appreciate the recommendations.

If I have a modest set up (Outlaw amp, Pro-Ject Debut Carbon, Zu Audio Dirty Weekend speakers) do these high end pressings make sense? Will my system extract the detail to justify the cost of these pressings?

Many of these are out of stock or "back ordered" at Acoustic Sounds. Also, Hugh Masekela Hope 33rpm sounds amazing!

Hello from 🇨🇦 Michael. I'm sure you have already been asked and answered but, what kind of outer sleeves are you using? Thanks!!

I've got originals of most of those--at least the ones I'm interested in. It's great that Chad does such a great service in reissuing a lot of classic LPs, but I can't rationalize buying them again just so i can compare and OG to one of his records. I've done it on occasion (Like with Miles Relaxin") and I still like playing the OG, even if it's got a few pops and ticks. I will say that around $40 a pop, they are a good value--better that the Mofis, IMHO. (I'm a graphic designer and I've always hated how MoFi has to ad their little strip across the top of so many classic LP covers.)

With Analogue Productions, stuff will go out of print for a few years and then come back right? It seems that way with most of their titles. Also, on the Tone Poet Series, they are supposed to be “unlimited” persay, correct? Like they will be in print for years and years? I have so many titles to get right now, I need to make some tough decisions. Trying to save myself money in the long run.

It' s all about "cut from the original master tapes" but dont see any r2r tape machine.

Hi Michael, Congratulations for the channel! I enjoy very much with them. I have a question: what are the outer sleves you use to protect double albums? I used various of them and I find all too loosy and the album

A Simple question for you. What are the wrap around plastic covers you use for your records? I have a lot of the Tone Poet albums and saw that you have manged to wrap yours in some kind of protective cove

Is this counting down from 20 in order of your favorites? Also, if you have both how does the MOFI Lynyrd Skynyrd compare to the AP version?

I know this is too much to ask. Can you recommend a reasonable pair of bookshelf speakers? I’m looking wharfedale Denton. They need to be easy to drive. :-)

Michael , Do you have the Bloodlines Box by Blood Sweat & Tears issued by Analogue Productions. If you do I would be interested on your thoughts.

No Chet Baker Sings? No Rumours 45rpm? Royal ballet gala (Earnest Ansermet?) Some amazing audiophile records in print..great video though

Yeah but any decently recorded album is audiophile. If you can find them. Somewhere.

Hi from New Zealand, love your videos Michael. Would you be able to post a link to where you buy your plastic covers from? Cheers, Nick

The Pet Sounds. 33 1/3 or 45 rpm?

I wonder if this limited run thing is made to fool people. There has always been at some point a new release.

Hi there. Am really enjoying your channel! Any recommendation of where to buy these pressings in Germany or Europe?

Whre can you buy analogue production records in Europe? ( online ) The shipping is very expensive from USA

Whyyyy are these records so expensive!!!??? Its really insane! And most of them isn’t even available here in Sweden! And If I were to order from Acoustic Sounds.....there is a shipping cost of 60 dollars for 3 records, thats about 225 dollars, and then I have to pay taxes 25% and a fee.....so in the end, 3 55 dollar records will be 3 100 dollar records. I don’t think a record should cost more than 20 dollars!

do you buy the AP records directly from the acoustic sounds store in the US or do you buy them from a european store? i am hesitant to order directly from the US due to shipping and customs

Lynyrd!

Toller Kanal, leider nicht auf deutsch.... :-)
