Spirit - Clear

Our Shootout Winner from 2011

  (Item #: spiriclear_2011) 



A distinguished member of the Better Records Rock and Pop Hall of Fame.

This amazing Hot Stamper Two Pack gives you a White Hot side one and a side two that's nearly its equal, earning a sonic grade of A++ to A+++. (The other sides were either too noisy or too awful sounding to be of any concern to us audiophiles.)

With the best sides here you get Tubey Magic like you never imagined, assuming you played the CD or the Sundazed vinyl. (I would take the CD in a heartbeat over the awful Sundazed LP of course. More on that later.)

Sundazed Heavy Vinyl Debunked

  (Item #: spiriclear_sundazed) 



Sonic Grade: F

A Hall of Shame and another Sundazed record debunked.

Although it's been many years since I last played it, I'm fairly confidant that the Sundazed only hints at the real sound of the best copies. Most Sundazed records would end up in our Hall of Shame if we ever bothered to audition them.

Being in the "record business", such as it is, I played my share and more of awful sounding Heavy Vinyl.

Sundazed Mono Reviewed

  (Item #: spirispiri_sundazed) 



Sonic Grade: D

Another Sundazed record reviewed and found wanting.

As usual, the Sundazed only hints at the real sound of the recording. We recommended it back at the day; it's tonally correct, so for fifteen bucks you are getting your fifteen bucks worth and probably not a dime's more. We just cannot take this kind of sound seriously these days. Once you've heard the real thing, this pressing just won't do.

The Mono Rocks

  (Item #: spirispiri_mono_2011) 



A distinguished member of the Better Records Rock Hall of Fame, not for the best Hot Stamper stereo copies, but for this amazing MONO.

This killer pressing from 2010 has almost EVERYTHING you want from this '60s Psych Pop Masterpiece -- the energy, presence and sheer rock and roll POWER made a mockery of every stereo copy we played.

Want a glimpse into the kind of energy the band was generating in the studio? Drop the needle on Fresh Garbage, the opening track of this amazing mono pressing, and you will hear this band come alive in a way you never imagined you'd ever hear them.

The Stereo Rocks

  (Item #: spirispiri_stereo_2011) 



A distinguished member of the Better Records Rock Hall of Fame.

We love this album around here, and on a White Hot copy like this the sound is amazing! Presence and clarity up top, weight and punch down low, and plenty of Tubey Magic in the middle -- this copy gives you everything you need! If you're a fan of guitar-driven psychedelic rock, this album is right up there with the best of the genre.

Spirit - The Family That Plays Together

Our Shootout Winner from 2013

  (Item #: spirithefa_2013) 



A distinguished member of the Better Records Rock and Pop Hall of Fame.

SUPER HOT SOUND on BOTH sides, with side one clocking in a A++ to A+++ and side two right there at A++. We get asked about this classic album a lot, but until recently we were not convinced that we'd ever be able to find a great sounding copy. We built up a huge stack of copies and finally took the plunge; I am pleased to report that even though you'll never hear a copy of this album that screams "Demo Disc", you can certainly find ones that communicate the music well if you clean and play enough of 'em.

Spirit - Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus

Our Shootout Winner from 2013

  (Item #: spiritwelv_2013) 



A distinguished member of the Better Records Rock Hall of Fame.

This copy has the kind of sound I always dreamed the album could have, but it took years of listening -- mostly to one flat, grainy, smeary copy after another -- to get here.

This and Spirit's first album are absolute Rock Classics in my book, records that belong in any popular music lover's collection.
