From the original press release:
As with all titles in the series, Explorations features lacquers cut from the original tapes (AAA) by Bernie Grundman and is pressed on 180-gram vinyl at RTI using Neotech’s VR900-D2 “super vinyl” compound. Using a one-step lacquer process (as opposed to the standard three-step process), this exacting technique allows for the utmost level of musical detail, clarity and dynamics while reducing the amount of surface noise on the record to ensure that each pressing is a true representation of the original lacquer and is as close as the listener can get to the original recording. Completing the Explorations package are new liner notes by Syd Schwartz, a longtime writer, music marketing executive and author of the popular Jazz and Coffee Substack
Praised by such esteemed outlets as Mojo (“superb clarity”), Clash (“breathtakingly majestic”), Goldmine (“sonically immaculate”), Analog Planet (“sounds better than ever”) and Tracking Angle (“excellent”), the Small Batch series features handpicked titles from Craft’s unparalleled catalog. Each pressing is presented in a foil-stamped, linen-wrapped individually numbered slipcase. The vinyl disc—extractable through a unique, frictionless ribbon pull tab—is housed in a reproduction of the album’s original tip-on jacket from Riverside Records and protected by an archival-quality inner sleeve.
