MFSL AUDIOPHILE LP (MFSL 1-106) BEATLES "RUBBER SOUL" OMR NEW/MINT/SEALED
YOU ARE BIDDING ON A MOBILE FIDELITY SOUND LAB (MFSL) ORIGINAL MASTER RECORDING OF THE BEATLES CLASSIC ALBUM "RUBBER SOUL". THIS VERSION OF THE BEATLES LP IS CONSIDERED THE BENCHMARK. IT HAS NEVER BEEN OPENED OR PLAYED. THIS IS A GEM FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION THAT CIRCUMSTANCES FORCE ME TO SELL.
FOR THOSE NOT FAMILIAR WITH MFSL'S HISTORY I HAVE LISTED A STATEMENT FROM THE COMPANY TO HELP UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY DO.
BELOW IS MOBILE FIDELITY'S DESCRIPTION OF THEIR EARLY VINYL PRODUCTION PROCESS AND GOALS FOR THEIR HALF-SPEED REMASTERING TECHNIQUE
Mobile Fidelity's significant contributions to the world of high-end audio software are grounded in the art of Original Master Recording, significantly advanced by the company with the introduction of the half-speed mastered Original Master Recording™ LP. As part of the company's resolve to provide the most accurate sonic reproductions possible, all Mobile Fidelity product is mastered directly from the original master tape as opposed to production copies often used for mass reproduction. This ensures a more complete and exacting transfer of the original musical data. In the case of the Original Master Recording™ (OMR) LP, the use of the master tape is combined with a unique procedure known as "half-speed" mastering, which literally slows down the cutting system involved in mastering vinyl so that musical information can be transferred from the source tape to the lacquer with greater precision. To this advanced mastering technique, Mobile Fidelity adds substantial refinements in the vinyl compound itself and improves methods of plating the lacquer. The result is a significant improvement in overall.
THE ALBUM IS STILL SEALED AND HAS BEEN CAREFULLY STORED. IT IS A GREAT LP FOR SOMEONE WANTING TO UPGRADE THEIR COLLECTION.
HERE IS A REVIEW OF RUBBER SOUL WITH SONG SELECTIONS FROM ALLMUSIC.COM
Review
While the Beatles still largely stuck to love songs on Rubber Soul, the lyrics represented a quantum leap in terms of thoughtfulness, maturity, and complex ambiguities. Musically, too, it was a substantial leap forward, with intricate folk-rock arrangements that reflected the increasing influence of Dylan and the Byrds. The group and George Martin were also beginning to expand the conventional instrumental parameters of the rock group, using a sitar on "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)," Greek-like guitar lines on "Michelle" and "Girl," fuzz bass on "Think for Yourself," and a piano made to sound like a harpsichord on the instrumental break of "In My Life." While John and Paul were beginning to carve separate songwriting identities at this point, the album is full of great tunes, from "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)" and "Michelle" to "Girl," "I'm Looking Through You," "You Won't See Me," "Drive My Car," and "Nowhere Man" (the last of which was the first Beatle song to move beyond romantic themes entirely). George Harrison was also developing into a fine songwriter with his two contributions, "Think for Yourself" and the Byrds-ish "If I Needed Someone."
