AUDIOFILSKA - 24 KARAT GOLD! EDYCJA NUMEROWANA

After an appearance at the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967, Janis Joplin and Big Brother & The Holding Company found themselves in the national limelight with a big-time manager and a recording contract with Columbia Records. Released in 1968, Cheap Thrills is the classic that became a #1 album and sold over a million copies. This is the album that cemented Janis' status as the first, true female rock superstar. Crowned by its hit single, a churning remake of Erma Franklin's "Piece of My Heart," the album also contained Joplin's Monterey showstopper and signature rendition of Big Mama Thornton's "Ball and Chain," as well as a raw and soulful recasting of the Gershwin jazz classic "Summertime," on which Joplin's always underappreciated band (especially guitarists Sam Andrews and James Gurley) match her vocal intensity with their own ferocious playing. Cheap Thrills endures as the best showcase of Janis Joplin's extraordinary singing talent. Her amazing, spectacularly expressive vocals, channeling the agony and the ecstasy of love and life. It is really extraordinary how many artists have been inspired by her. Upon listening, one is convinced that Janis was and is a one-of-a-kind vocalist who can not be equaled nor imitated. From the classic album art to the classic track selections, this album takes you right back to 1968! Audio Fidelity's 24K + Gold compact discs reproduce the ultimate sound of classic recorded performances without the irregular plated surfaces of standard aluminum discs. Their 24K + Gold series brings you classic music in deluxe packaging with see-through slip cases. They only use the original vintage mixes played back on a specially constructed playback deck. Here's where the Plus comes in: engineers Steve Hoffman and Kevin Gray use their 30 years of expertise to create the best sounding versions of the music ever released. When they are satisfied with the end result, the final digital master is shipped directly to the manufacturing plant for etching in "real time" onto the glass surface by laser.
