CARDAS RECORDS  -  Ben Harper  - "  Pleasure and Pain "  FACTORY SEALED - NEW -  Extremely Rare  -  OUT OF PRINT  . This Classic album pressing was specially released by  Ben Harper  and  Tom Freund and produced by  George Cardas , of legendary "Cardas Cables",  on March 15th  1992 , when a moment in time stood still and magic and alchemy happened. It is a stunning recording and with only 1000 or so were ever released,  not avaliable on any other music format, and is not only considered one of Ben Harpers finest recordings,  but also one of the rarest and  collectable LP's around . All involved wove a spell binding experience and this album is a testament and credit to all .  George Cardas , put all his incredible skill and knowhow into this project , with the use of Cardas differential microphones and Helix Golden 5.C cables and using an all analog recording chain , with the mastering done by Legendary  Doug Sax  at  The Mastering Lab, in CA.  Transferred to 180 Gram  virgin vinyl  and using only the original studio master tapes allowes this album to be taken to the next level of Audiophile nivana  with awesome imagining, presence and feeling. You can feel the air split as notes are plucked out of a black canvas soundstage . This is a wonderful recording and is very rare record to come across . I have own this album since new .  Highly recommended....                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 PLEASE NOTE- The original factory plastic protective bag has a approx 1'' separation along the serrated opening strip on one corner. The album has been kept and will be shipped "double bagged" to stop this splitting any further. There are no corner dings or any cover damage , as the photos clearly show.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 The albums 16th Birthday is coming up and its time for this fine album to date a new owner. She's going on sweet 16 , and never been played.
