Lightnin' Hopkins
The Blues of Lightnin' Hopkins
-Prestige-(Bluesville)- (45rpm, Analogue Productions)
......
I just checked this out...fantastic! I have not come across Lightnin' Hopkins albums that were not scratchy. thanks to you...I went to analogue productions and found the 3 on SACD. unfortunately, they are coming out this year and no announcement as to when. I am wondering whether I should get the 'regular CDs' from Amazon or wait? hmmmm...
Yes, it is a fantastic album.
If the difference between regular CD and SACD is the same between regular vinyl and 45rpm, I would get the SACD.
This vinyl pressing 45rpm re-issue by Analogue Productions is amazing.
Up to you.
Thanks. I'll check that out!The SACDs are better. But the CDs have nothing to be ashamed of. And APO is a great Blues music record label. ...Now we're talking; Blues baby, right on!
* Lightnin' Hopkins - check him too on Audio Fidelity record label (Hybrid SACD).
So I ordered all 3 Lightnin Hopins remasters on sacd from APO...but they cannot tell me when they will be out?! Disappointing!Thanks. I'll check that out!
