MFSL 1-006 JOHN KLEMMER "TOUCH"- RELEASED 1978

Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab has been the undisputed pioneer and leader in audiophile recordings since the company's inception in 1977. Established by dedicated audiophiles, Mobile Fidelity's first and foremost goal was to offer faithfully reproduced high fidelity recordings that would compliment the numerous advances occurring in audio delivery systems. Throughout its history, Mobile Fidelity has remained true to this goal, pioneering state-of-the-art technologies and setting audiophile standards that remain in place today.

Alongside the company’s launch in 1977 came 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 playback of phenomenal quality, which is still a benchmark for modern audiophile labels today.

This OMR version of "Touch" by John Klemmer was only the 6th release in a series of around 200 LPs and is highly sought after by audiophiles and collectors.  The copy for sale here is graded as EX/NM in accordance with recognised Record Collector grading systems. 
The heavy duty matt sleeve exhibits just the slightest of wear to the spine, but is otherwise in good condition - conservatively graded as VG.  The original plastic wrapping has been replaced by a heavier gauge PVC cover!  The LP itself is a NM, showing no signs of having been played.  Comes with original MFSL inserts, which are in excellent condition.

This is the definitive version of this classic LP.  Grab yourself a piece of pop and audiophile history!!
