Bob Dylan The Mono CD Box Set on Limited Edition 9 x CD
Mastered from the Original Analog MONO MASTERS by Mark Wilder at Sterling Sound: This is the Ultimate AUDIOPHILE Digital Dylan Box Set
Each Disc Comes With Individual Jacket Replete with Original Artwork and Inserts
Includes Deluxe Booklet, Rare Photos and Greil Marcus Essay
Bob Dylan’s first eight groundbreaking albums are returning to the marketplace for the first time ever in a limited edition box set of newly mastered mono versions on CD. Also Available: All-Analog 9-LP Mono Box Set
The Original Mono Recordings are comprised of these albums painstakingly reproduced from their first generation monaural mixes as the artist intended them to be heard: One channel of powerful sound, both direct and immediate. While stereo recordings had been available as early as the mid-1950s, mono was still the predominant, and often preferred, mode of recording and mixing by the top artists of the 1960s. As a result, artists like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan devoted their attention to the mono mixes, leaving the stereo mixing process to studio engineers.
As is fitting for a box of this magnitude, The Original Mono Recordings are accompanied by a deluxe booklet, featuring vintage photographs of Bob Dylan and an expansive essay from renowned author and critic, and longtime Dylan aficionado, Greil Marcus. Each disc in the set comes in its own individual jacket which faithfully replicates the original album artwork, complete with labels and stickers that were found on the original 1960s releases.
Mastered from the original analog mono masters by legendary engineers at Sterling Sound in New York City, we guarantee this is the best you will ever hear Dylan sound on a digital format. This unprecedented set features some of the most important and timeless music ever made, now in a jaw-dropping sound that rivals what was heard in the studio control room.
