Wow...I just ordered Muddy Waters Folk Singer 45 rpm from you earlier this evening...and stumbled upon this video. I'm a new customer to you and have placed a couple orders the last few days. Thanks!
Lightnin Hopkins Goin Away is another great recording both musically and sonically! Hey Chad. Always remember coming out to Blue Heaven with Atkinson etc. Good times.Looking forward to part 2.
Thanks so much for doing this. Recently have started buying the "Must haves" as far as the Blues goes. I already have a few that you have mentioned but I had got to the point where I didnt know where to go or get next. There are so many really crummy recordings and I want the stuff that sounds good. Cant wait to see part 2. Thank you so much Chad some of us just dont know what are decent sounding and what is not. This helps tremendously.
Nice presentation Chad.... Good 2 see some of the old classics getting a re-press job. My Fav. on Taj's Recycling is Texas Woman Blues but also as you mentioned Sweet H. Chicago is a definitive version. Another blues classic is JLH Serve you right... Still have an lmpulse copy that sounds great. The Otis Spann sounds interesting with Lonnie on guitar. Never seen that import before. Still like your production on the John Hammond "In. my arms again". I'll be watching for the next edition of Blues vinyl.
Thank you Chad for having your company do Son House. It is absolutely amazing in every way. I hope to see more country blues if possible. I also saw you are repressing the 45 of JLH's Serve's You Right to Suffer. I'm on board. Thanks again for your continuous consistency in quality.
Aloha Chad, Awesome Video, a few weeks ago I purchased a copy of Folk Singer from Acoustic Sounds , thanks to Emma from her UA-cam channel eightvinyllow, she did a great review on it. I too started listening to British blues first ,then back track to American blues Musicians, I would read who were their influences of these UK bands. I was blessed to see Muddy Waters in 1977 at the KOOL JAZZ FESTIVAL at the WAIKIKI SHELL, he & his band was awesome. Thanks for a great video. Looking forward to your next one. Mahalo Ed.
I love that Folk Singer pressing. I hope we get a audiophile pressing of his Hard Again someday. I just unsealed my new copy of Hooker and Heat. It’s on the turntable now. So far it sounds great. Thanks for the recommendations. I will be checking some of them out soon.
Lightning is my favorite also. Interesting and very cool most of the early 60s recordings of the old Blues masters that toured Europe have been meticulously Re-mastered
Having spent a lot of time in Houston, I am a huge fan of Lightnin’ Hopkins. I have never found a super high quality recording, but Lightnin’ is so good, I was willing to ignore the recording quality. Maybe someday a quality master of his work will surface. I will have to check out the album that ended this segment.
There's more Lightnin' in the upcoming videos. In fact, it has my personal favorite blues album, which happens to be a Lightnin' Hopkins, and this is a very good recording, every bit as good as Muddy Waters Folk Singer.
Great fun. As someone who is from Chicago I am quite familiar with the Chess and Delmark labels, but you're list is quite unfamiliar to me which I like. Like another point of view. I love Lightnin too. I have Swarthmore College live which I really like. But you're correct on Otis Spann for sure. The best post war piano player and left us way too soon. One question, why the 45 LPS? Familiar with 33 but I don't know anything about the 45's. Thanks for posting.
Hey Chad! Looking forward to getting my copy of John Lee Hookers It Serve You Right to Suffer! Any chance of getting Thats My Story and Burning in Hell repressed?
Not positive, but possible. Speakers Corner did a good version of it that I think is out of print now on 33. But our 45 will be back in stock within a week.
FOR ANYONE...We are seeing companies like MOFI reissuing albums that are sourced from the original master tape. We are also seeing albums being reissued that are sourced from a digital source. Can any one of you please explain which reissue approach is the better option for a high end turntable. If a reissue of each type were played on a high end turntable using a blind A/B listening comparison, and both types of reissue (*from the master tape versus from a digital source*) were done to perfection, would one sound better than the other or would they sound close to identical? MANY THANKS!!!
Where are you getting the masters for these new vinyl pressings? I'm reluctant to buy new vinyl because I discovered much of it is just the CD remaster transferred to vinyl.
When Analogue Productions reissues a record, 99% of the time it's from the analog master. Sometimes we issue records that were only recorded digitally, and sometimes we can only get a safety copy, because the master is lost or in bad shape. There is other labels that do cut from digital, but remember we named our label Analogue Productions, we go to the ends of the earth to find the analog master.
I love listening to people talk about their favorite music, brings out the passion.
thats why we do it! :)
Same is really interesting
The best description of the blues for me is that it's music stripped down to its essential elements.
I have Folk Singer and the dynamics are amazing feels like you are in the studio. The Junior Wells definitely gets your foot tapping.
Thanks Chad I wrote down 2 of those titles that I need to get from acoustic sounds because I want the best pressing available thank you very much
Thank You Chad you are a true PIONEER in bringing us great music. You deserve all of the accolades and fortunes.
Thank you

Y'all are a compendium of historical knowledge (and definitive recording production) enjoyed by all audiophiles. Many thanks.
Amazing video IMO blues is a very underrated and underappreciated genre of music it doesn't get the recognition like it deserves.
Lightnin Hopkins Goin Away is another great recording both musically and sonically! Hey Chad. Always remember coming out to Blue Heaven with Atkinson etc. Good times.Looking forward to part 2.
Hey Billy! I do remember you, and the LP you mentioned is my all-time favorite.
@@acousticsoundsks Hi Chad! Will you do another batch of Goin Away? Thanks for great content!
I’m really enjoying these videos. More please!!
Thanks so much for doing this. Recently have started buying the "Must haves" as far as the Blues goes.

Yay, Lightin' is a favorite of mine as well. The guy looked good, played good, and sang good. He had it all! 🎸🎸🎸
I'm a new fan of the genre. I love Tampa Red, Jimmy Reed, Betty James, Lil Walter. Watching from the UK.
Love blues albums, keep them coming
Thank you Chad for having your company do Son House. It is absolutely amazing in every way. I hope to see more country blues if possible. I also saw you are repressing the 45 of JLH's Serve's You Right to Suffer. I'm on board. Thanks again for your continuous consistency in quality.

Chad, Now is a perfect time (b/c of the Mo-fi controversy) for your company to produce and expand your content with genuine analog productions.
Just ordered Serve you right! It is back in stock.
this guy knows what he is talking about.
and thankful this YT video actually sounds good, too^
Love your videos. Great background and I learn so much from your commentary.
I love that Folk Singer pressing. I hope we get a audiophile pressing of his Hard Again someday. I just unsealed my new copy of Hooker and Heat. It’s on the turntable now. So far it sounds great. Thanks for the recommendations. I will be checking some of them out soon.
Another excellent video, from you chad, I love your knowledge👍
Lovin' these snapshots of yours. - Buddy Guy, the original "The Friendly Chap" in linear notes. The Guy, who sold Junior Wells' tunes well too.
Nice kass! I love the blues, but out of my 600 LPs , I have not 1 blues album! That's gotta change!
That's insane 😳 Get that son house vinyl!
I used to love Count Basie especially Count Basie does Bond is good but I also love Weather Report especially Heavy Weather and Birdland.
Lightning is my favorite also. Interesting and very cool most of the early 60s recordings of the old Blues masters that toured Europe have been meticulously Re-mastered
Thanks Chad. I was hoping you would get to your Blues Records! We share some of the same tastes. Keep them coming and check out my list. LOL
Magic Sam; Black Magic , a must have!!
Can’t watch your videos, I’m broke now 😂
Hello Chad,
Is that the Technics SL1200G turntable your using ?
Having spent a lot of time in Houston, I am a huge fan of Lightnin’ Hopkins. I have never found a super high quality recording, but Lightnin’ is so good, I was willing to ignore the recording quality. Maybe someday a quality master of his work will surface.

Thanks Chad, please consider repressing all the impulse reissues 🙏🏻
The plan is to do many Impulse in the next few years.
Great fun. As someone who is from Chicago I am quite familiar with the Chess and Delmark labels, but you're list is quite unfamiliar to me which I like. Like another point of view. I love Lightnin too. I have Swarthmore College live which I really like. But you're correct on Otis Spann for sure. The best post war piano player and left us way too soon. One question, why the 45 LPS? Familiar with 33 but I don't know anything about the 45's. Thanks for posting.
45s sound better than 33s, and many of our customers want to hear their favorite music in the highest quality.
Hey Chad! Looking forward to getting my copy of John Lee Hookers It Serve You Right to Suffer! Any chance of getting Thats My Story and Burning in Hell repressed?
Is "Serves You Right To Suffer" ever going to be available on 33rpm? Whether it's analogue productions or the acoustic sounds series?
Not positive, but possible. Speakers Corner did a good version of it that I think is out of print now on 33. But our 45 will be back in stock within a week.
@@acousticsoundsks Will any other Impulse titles be back in stock along with Serves You Right?
@@GreenMonster2420 serve you right 45 is available now
I love Muddy Waters’ Folk Singer album!

@@acousticsoundsks Good to hear (no pun intended). I'll be checking out your catalog.
I have several of the live direct to disk albums you have pressed. They are not surpassed.
I wish you guys had a UK distributor.
We do. F Minor.
Is 33rpm ‘Folk Singer’ going to be repressed soon?
Yes.
🇧🇷
Charly Patton is the king amen
Why would anyone listen to this vacuous list of opinions
