Audiophile Spectacular: Mastered By Bob Ludwig, Cut by Bernie Grundman, Pressed at RTI Produced in Collaboration With World-Renowned Audio Manufacturer McIntosh Laboratory to Ensure Highest-Possible Fidelity; Includes Bonus CD of Entire Album Star-Studded Affair Features Norah Jones, Bob Weir, Stephen Stills, Carly Simon, Ben Harper, and More! A Portion of the Proceeds from the Sale of This Album Go to Autism Research J. Ralph, acclaimed composer, songwriter and producer known for his scores to the Academy Award-winning documentaries The Cove and Man On Wire, and the sound behind Charity:Water, draws upon an astounding collection of voices, united in a harmony of purpose for the brilliant and expansive Wretches & Jabberers Original Motion Picture Soundtrack. Joining J. Ralph on the album are: Norah Jones, Carly Simon, Ben Harper, Antony, Vashti Bunyan, Ben Taylor, Bob Weir, Devendra Banhart, Judy Collins, Stephen Stills, Scarlett Johannson, Paul Brady, Vincent Gallo, David Garza, Bonnie Bramlett, Nic Jones, Martin Carthy, Lila Downs and Leah Siegel. “To me the story is about finding a voice, for those who’ve suffered so long without one of their own,” says J. Ralph, referencing the inspiration for the album’s 20 songs (all of them written or co-written by J. Ralph) borne from the namesake film by Academy Award-winning director Gerardine Wurzburg. The musical journey that created the soundtrack is compelling, spanning multiple continents and iconic stars from five decades. J. Ralph saw the subjects of the documentary as strolling minstrels going from towns to continents, a parallel to folk music, and soon Ralph’s journey became a modern day road story of its own. A gifted artist and songwriter, J. Ralph set out to lend a voice through music to honor those who spent a lifetime searching for a voice of their own. And through sheer perseverance, and perhaps a touch of brilliance, has drawn upon an astounding collection of voices, and an album that stands as a musical masterwork. Produced on audiophile vinyl in collaboration with McIntosh Laboratory, mastered by Bob Ludwig, cut by Bernie Grundman, and pressed at RTI, and housed in a hand-made double Stoughton gatefold jacket, this is one vinyl pressing you sure do not want to miss. Gorgeous music, gorgeous sound, gorgeous packaging! "The sound is pristine, three-dimensional, dynamic and in every good sense of the 'audiophile quality.' The arrangements rely upon the audio to convey musical ideas, with careful placement of instruments in the mixes. Every track is an aural as well as musical treat." --Michael Fremer, musicangle.com Wretches & Jabberers Original Motion Picture Soundtrack Track Listing: 1. The Reasons Why - J. Ralph 2.
