THELMA HOUSTON
& PRESSURE COOKER
***I've got the music in me***
SHEFFIELD LAB 2
amazing sound quality via direct to disc recording
This is one of the most lasting and continually interesting albums ever made. Sheffield Labs, a mastering plant was the site of this recording. For 2 days Thelma and a handful of top-notch studio musicians (Pressure Cooker) sang and played LIVE direct to a lacquer master disc, non-stop, no mixing, no over-dubs, no edits. This prodigious effort is the most successful audiophile release of all time.
Upon it's release, "I've Got The Music In Me" sold over a quarter of a million copies exhausting the production capacity of the direct disc. Being a direct to disc recording means even an unsophistacted ear can hear the dynamics and even some minor flubs in the band.The lack of multiple tracks edited until close to perfection, is a welcome plus. Thelma Houston is amazing and Pressure Cooker is composed of some of the finest studio musicians of the era. .
This is a must have for any serious collector, as it cannot be replaced in this format, the direct disc production capacity was very quickly exhausted, and as mentioned above, the sound from this recording is truly amazing.
LAB 2 issued 1972
The tracks are....don't misunderstand/step in time/dish rag/got to get you into my life/i've got the music in me/reggae tune/to know you is to love you/pressure cooker/i've got the music in me (reprise)
laminated both sides, the GATEFOLD sleeve is in EXCELLENT condition on back and front. On the inside of the gatefold there are 2 paper 'lifts' on each side, presumably from storage conditions, probably not too significant given the rarity of this album, but check the photo for a clear idea.
Vinyl is in near mint condition, bright shiny surfaces, clean labels, no sign of spindle hole wear.
