Miles Davis – Kind of Blue
Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab – MFSL 2-45011
Original Master Recording, Gain 2™ Ultra Analog
45RPM 180g Series – September, 2015 Release
2 x Vinyl, 12", 45 RPM, Album, Reissue,
Remastered, Stereo, 180 Gram, Special Edition
Box Set, Limited Edition, Numbered


I have a 1959 Stereo copy of the original in Mint shape, and an original 1959 Mono
Copy that is VG+ but I get this MFSL 45 RPM reissue out for special occasions.
I wanted to hear this version through the Model One. WOW !!!!
I have played it twice (all 4 sides) because it sounds so incredible.
Just like being in front of the band, Coltrane and Julian Adderly sound so crisp, and
Miles is outstanding. This recording brings out the best of this classic LP. It is pure magic.
The bass solo by Paul Chambers sounds like he is right in front of you.
I’m throwing everything at the Model One, I just keep saying “WOW”..........

I set the Model One to "Ballad Singer" mode and up popped two debut albums.
Joan Baez in 1960 and Gordon Lightfoot (RIP) in 1966,
and a classic by Bob Dylan from 1974. The Model One puts these singers right
in front of you, incredible.....I'm still exclaiming "WOW" out loud whenever I play something new on the Model One :D.

Joan Baez – Joan Baez
Vanguard - VRS-9078
Debut Album – November, 1960
Mono – Rockaway Pressing
Just Joan and her guitar – Exquisite


Gordon Lightfoot – Lightfoot
United Artists – UAS 6487
Debut Album – 1966 - Stereo
Canadian Pressing
Just Gordon and his guitar, acoustic bass,
and a second acoustic guitar.


Bob Dylan – Blood on the Tracks
Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab – MFSL -1-381
Original Master Recording – Reissue 2013
Have the 1974 original, (Columbia PC-33235) bought it new, wore it out,

Set the Model One Time Machine to 1969 :

Led Zeppelin – Led Zeppelin
Atlantic Records SD-8216
Debut Album
Original 1969 - Presswell Pressing
Jan. 12, 1969 – US Release – Stereo

Led Zeppelin – Led Zeppelin II
Atlantic Records – SD-8236
Stereo - Gatefold – Presswell Pressing
Original 1969 – US Release

Bought both of these new in 1969, survived my early youth, college room mates, and parties, and they both still sound incredible.
Good memories with these two, playing them LOUD !
