Various Artists Phase 4: Stereo Concert Series Limited Edition Vinyl 6LP Box Set
Overview:
Decca celebrates a unique chapter in its sonic and engineering history here, and on the label’s original release format, the 33rpm LP. Phase 4 was an unashamed sonic spectacular label that used then-new multi-miking techniques to deliver albums of maximum immediacy, clarity of instrumentation and breadth of dynamic range. Critics and traditionalists may have carped, but consumers loved the ‘larger-than-life’ clarity of the sound picture. Limited 6LP Edition will have collectors and chat-rooms abuzz.
