Transformer

Product Information

This Speakers Corner LP was remastered using pure analogue components only, from the master tapes through to the cutting head.

Nojima Plays Liszt (RR-25) was named “Best Recording of the Month” by Stereo Review when it was originally released in 1988. Vinyl’s newfound popularity has led many other companies to jump on the bandwagon in the hope of securing a corner of the market. In this release, his third album for Reference Recordings, Doug MacLeod continues to explore the breadth and depth of the human condition. com The album Transformer, however, can by no means be classified as a case of "acoustic bodily harm.

Expertly remastered by Kevin Gray, lacquer plating by master technician Gary Salstrom, heavy cardboard gatefold jacket with vibrantly reproduced original artwork. It was the moment when the seventies poster boy for shock-rock therapy found a balance between unbelievably catchy tunes and proto punk reportage from the gutters of Manhattan. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Speakers Corner wishes to make clear that it produces lacquers using only original master tapes and an entirely analogue cutting system.

The album is considered an influential landmark of the glam rock genre, anchored by Reed's most successful single, "Walk on the Wild Side", which touched on then-controversial topics of sexual orientation, gender identity, prostitution, and drug use.This production had two British guardian angels to help it on its way, namely David Bowie and Mick Ronson, both of whom obviously knew how to steer Reed’s songwriting qualities into safe waters, without watering down his biting sarcasm and humorous provocation. The sound and style of ‘Transformer’ would in many ways define Reed’s career in the 1970s, and while it led him into a style that proved to be a dead end, you can’t deny that Bowie and Ronson gave their hero a new lease on life — and a solid album in the bargain.

Well, I usually hold Speak Corn press highly but here something went wrong with boomy and muddy bass on whole album, maybe a bad press but for sure my MOV press sounds much better with tight and resolved bass. com put it: “Most hard rock bands would give their left arm for a record that swaggers and hits as hard as Nuthin’ Fancy.
