A very welcome return to Simply Vinyl out of England, returning with a remarkable reissue of John Martyn's "Solid Air". Unlike the variable Simply Vinyl of the past, and the very unfortunate low grade bootleg Simply Vinyl clones that flooded stores after the original SV's demise (and are still around in large quantities), it seems like the new incarnation is making every attempt to put out a real top end product. The mastering is superb, onviously analog, easily exceeding originals in tonality and transparency. It's a classic record, pressed with care, mastered superbly, and care has been taken down to the cover and original palm tree Island label. A great start for the new Simply Vinyl.
Second reissue from Simply Vinyl is T.Rex's "The Slider" and again, the values here are very high. Original and subsequent pressings aren't really all that great sonically, and in truth the original source isn't all that sterling. Here it's as good a sound as it's going to get, and that is actually very good.
The Slider's a fun record, very trippy, the bridge between the original Tyrannosaurus Rex and the Bang A Gong pop band. I would think it's my personal favorite T.Rex album and a great choice by Simply Vinyl.
Search around for these, or order them straight from the UK as they don't seem to have much by way of distribution over here. Worth it.
