  Mastering Notes

  Album was cut for vinyl from the original master tape using a completely analog signal path and with constant reference to first generation pressings of the original album. It was made using a Studer A80 master recorder with analog preview & program paths, and a Neumann VMS70 cutting lathe originally installed in Capitol Studios in 1971. This specific all-analog cutting technique allows faithful representation of the full musical range and dynamics present on the original tape.
