You should never pass up the opportunity to upgrade your collection. They're each very limited in their pressings and disappear with extraordinary quickness from the vinyl market. This causes prices to skyrocket because once they are gone, they are gone forever! Don't second-guess yourself with this chance to upgrade your collection because before you know it, the opportunity will have passed forever.
This Album was mastered in Half-Speed technology which allows more time for the Original Session Master Tape to be transferred perfectly to Vinyl, a very costly and time-consuming process.
PAUL SIMON - SURPRISE - 1/2 SPEED MASTERED AUDIOPHILE LP
Among the most popular artists and greatest songwriters of our time, Paul Simon returned with his first album in six years – and the album titled Surprise is exactly that. First, three songs were co-written with electronic music guru Brian Eno; second, the other songs are straightforward, wonderfully American pop. Surprise is a pleasant surprise for Simon fans. I received this album as a birthday gift - my first Paul Simon album since Graceland. That's obviously a span of many years (almost 20) and my musical tastes have since migrated to the more "modern" sounds of Arcade Fire, Ryan Adams, Zero 7, Audioslave, The Shins, etc. Perhaps an eclectic mix of artists, but all pioneers in the modern era of rock.
I popped in Suprise and was completely blown away. The master shines on this album of incredible stories intertwined within some of the best hooks I've heard in some time. Lyrically, this album is pure poetry.
Mastered by Stan Ricker. Pressed at RTI on regular weight virgin vinyl.

COLLECTORS INFO ABOUT Classic Records TITLES
Classic Records has proven to be an Audiophile Company second to none in the new millennium. But ALL CLASSIC RECORDS TITLES ARE NOW OUT OF PRINT SINCE THE COMPANY WENT OUT OF BUSINESS IN 2010. These Editions have become some of the rarest pressings in the Audiophile Collector's Market. Just try to find them at any Audiophile Retailer after the next few months. They are simply gone from the market and Mymusicfix has seen some these First Editions sell for over $800.
When you take that into consideration, what will this Audiophile Pressing will be worth in the years ahead? It could be one of the most collectible pressings ever especially since Classic records is no longer in business.
How rare and valuable are each one of these titles now still Factory Sealed Priceless!
Mymusicfix has a very limited amount of these now Rare Factory Sealed pressings. We're sure you may not have known about some of these titles existed. Have fun collecting these Masterpieces!
These are tremendous titles and artists that Mymusicfix still has in these LIMITED Edition STICKERS but we have very few pieces left of each title and prices will continue to rise as inventory continues to dwindle
This Classic Limited Edition Audiophile LP was mastered from the Original Session Tapes to 180 Gram Heavy Virgin Vinyl.
This Simon and Garfunkel Classic Pressing has been critically acclaimed as the quietest and finest ever produced of this BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER recording. It is a new listening experience that will virtually feel as if you were in the studio with Simon and Garfunkel.
After a decade of pop stardom, America's favorite folk rock duo were just about ready to go their separate ways (at least Simon was) but not before releasing this gem as a swan song. Possibly Simon and Garfunkel's most diverse album, BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER firmly established them as creators of pop standards on the par with Irving Berlin or Johnny Mercer. The title tune alone, a beautiful unfolding gospel-twinged vow of emotional commitment places them in the pop Hall of Fame forever.
The story obviously doesn't stop there. Foreshadowing Simon's solo work, the jubilant love song "Celia" and the poignant yearning "El Condor Pasa" both turned to the traditions of other cultures for music inspiration. The highly metaphorical "The Boxer" is the only real throwback to Simon's more self-conscious early work. The transient production of "The Only Living Boy In New York" puts a pop sheen on an early example of Randy Newman's influence on Simon. What a way to say good-bye.

Paul Simon's First Release In Over 5 Years! 180g Vinyl!
This 10-song disc is Paul Simon's first album in over five years and is his most heartfelt and introspective to date.
The album features the 2010 single "Getting Ready for Christmas Day". Instead of sleigh bells and choirs, ‘Getting ready for Christmas Day’ has “the ragged charm†of the Simon and Garfunkel hit ‘Cecelia.’ The single also samples Reverend J.M Gates 1941 pre-war speech.
Paul Simon has a long, distinguished musical career that began in the 1960s as half of Simon and Garfunkel. The iconic musician has won numerous Grammy Awards, including a Lifetime Achievement Award. He has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice.
"This remarkable, thoughtful, often joyful record deserves to be recognized as among Paul Simon's very finest achievements." - Elvis Costello (liner notes author)
"His BEST since Graceland." - Rolling Stone
"So Beautiful Or So What balances great poetry and pop. Paul Simon is a national treasure." - NPR
"...at 69, Simon has returned to his polyglot musical influences...to fashion a startlingly powerful collection of songs that successfully mix the jaunty near-danceability of his world-music adventures with serious lyrics about impending death, the vagaries of love, and, especially, the many unknowables contained in the word God." - Robert Baird, Stereophile, July 2011, pg. 123
"Musically, So Beautiful or So What leans on Simon's wide knowledge of and familiarity with the musics of Africa, Brazil, and old-fashioned gospel." - Robert Baird, Stereophile, July 2011, pg. 123
"Simon grabs the listener's attention from the opening track, "Getting Ready for Christmas Day," which kicks off with a soulful dance beat worthy of latter-day Marvin Gaye... The instrumentation is an exotic tapestry of violas, sax, celeste, tabla, fiddle, slide baritone, clay pot, kora, harp and sampled gospel recordings."- Greg Cahill, TAS Magazine, September 2011, pg. 138
Fremer Rated 9 out of 10 for Music, 8 out of 10 for Sound!
"The parts are good enough without them adding up to more than the whole, but they consistently manage that and combined with the music, which does the same, it produces a provocative, powerful package filled with beauty, wonder and mystery that has the weight and staying power of his greatest albums."- Michael Fremer, Music Angle, Music 9/10, Sound 8/10

25th Anniversary Reissue of Paul Simon's Ground-Breaking Album "Graceland" Which Features the Hit "You Can Call Me Al".
"In many ways, Graceland was the most extraordinary experience in my entire career.... The insight into rhythm was the great gift that I received from making the trip to South Africa, and collaborating with African musicians." -- Paul Simon
The story of the making of Graceland and the controversy it created, is told in "Under African Skies," a full-length documentary from two-time Emmy and Peabody Award-winning filmmaker Joe Berlinger. The film debuted at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival, kicking off the year-long celebration commemorating the 25th anniversary of Simon's musical and cultural achievement with Graceland.
The universal appeal of the music of Graceland proved more powerful and enduring than the political hotbed attending its creation. In 1986, the album sold 14 million copies worldwide, and received universal praise from critics around the globe.
Paul Simon, a 12-time Grammy Award-winner, and composer of then two Grammy-awarded albums of the year (Bridge Over Troubled Water, Still Crazy After All These Years) traveled to South Africa to record with local artists. Simon and the members of Ladysmith Black Mambazo subsequently performed on TV's Saturday Night Live and appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone.
By January of 1987, "You Can Call Me Al" was everywhere and Graceland won Album of the Year at the Grammy Awards in 1987. Then, in an unprecedented carryover, the album garnered the Grammy for Song of the Year with its title track in 1988. The album generated three hit singles and kept Paul Simon and the Graceland tour on the road for five years.
During his distinguished career Paul Simon has been the recipient of many honors and awards including 12 Grammy Awards, three of which ("Bridge Over Troubled Water", "Still Crazy After All These Years" and "Graceland") were albums of the year. In 2003 he was given a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award for his work as half of the duo Simon and Garfunkel. He is a member of The Songwriters Hall of Fame, a recipient of their Johnny Mercer Award and is in the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Simon and Garfunkel and as a solo artist. His song "Mrs. Robinson" from the motion picture "The Graduate" was named in the top ten of The American Film Institute's 100 Years 100 Songs.
"Prior to Graceland, the music of South Africa was largely unknown outside the country, except to a small minority of world music fans ..." — Peter Gabriel
"Graceland continues to provide rewards to its listeners and remains a pivotal listening experience for writers, artists and fans. "Paul Simon's Graceland played a greatly significant role in removing the standoffish dread Western culture harbored toward South Africa during its internal struggle against apartheid, humanizing both a country's soul-searching hunger for liberation and its simultaneous outpouring of cathartic creative expression." — Timothy White, Billboard
"If there’s an album easily pointed to as one that not only stood the test of time, but sounds fresher than ever, it would be Graceland. Repeated plays do not diminish the listening pleasure thank to the musical content and Roy Halee’s superb engineering." - Michael Fremer
"This lacquer cut processed and pressed at RTI on 180 gram vinyl sounds dramatically superior to the original in every way. The overall tonal balance is far superior. The low bass is as powerful as on the original but much better controlled. If the opening drum “thwacks†on “Boy In the Bubble,†don’t sound deep, ultra-tight and tuneful, blame your system, not the record. You are guaranteed to hear heretofore hidden musical details and parts that on the original slipped through the musical cracks." - Michael Fremer, analogplanet. Music 10/10, Sound 10/10!
"...[Q]uiet-as-a-whisper LP... the tribal rhythms, percolating guitar lines, midrange thump of Baghiti Khumalo's fretless bass, and haunting vocal incantations of Ladysmith Black Mambazo are as fresh today as when first introduced to mainstream audiences." - Greg Cahill, The Absolute Sound, October 2012

SIMON AND GARFUNKEL - BOOKENDS - HEAVY VINYL
Simon & Garfunkel's classic album Bookends, released in 1968, marked the duo's emergence as both a brilliant creative force and one of their era's biggest-selling recording acts. Bookends, which arrived on the heels of Simon & Garfunkel's high-profile role on the soundtrack of the film The Graduate, is a brilliantly realized tour de force that captures the pleasures, tensions and fears of its era as vividly as any '60s album. Simon's literate, emotionally complex songwriting is matched by the ambitious production, which elevates the fiery folk-rockers.

SIMON AND GARFUNKEL - PARSLEY - SAGE - ROSEMARY & THYME - HEAVY VINYL
Simon & Garfunkel's classic album Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme, released in 1966, marked the duo's emergence as both a brilliant creative force and one of the era's biggest-selling recording acts. The pair's third album, Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme was the first on which they won complete artistic control, and they rose to the occasion brilliantly, delivering an ambitious, autumnal epic that's been described as a folk-rock equivalent of the Beatles' Revolver and the Beach Boys' Pet Sounds. Combining fuzz-tinged pop and pastoral baroque-folk with the duo's heavenly harmonies, Paul Simon's heady wordplay and some imaginatively layered production touches, the album features such Simon & Garfunkel standards as "Homeward Bound," "Scarborough Fair" and "The 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy)."

THE GRADUATE - THE SOUNDTRACK - 180 GRAM LIMITED EDITION
The soundtrack to this Oscar and Golden Globe winning film was put together from already existent, successful pop numbers. No words are really necessary about the music, since numbers such as "Sound of Silence," "Mrs. Robinson" and "Scarborough Fair" have entered into the annals of musical culture ever since they were used in the film. It is astounding to note how seamlessly the various works fit snugly into the film's context, as though they had been specially written for the scenes. It catapulted Simon & Garfunkel right to the top of the list of ballad singers, and it also includes instrumental insertion numbers by Dave Grusin, who virtually fell into oblivion after all the hype about this provocative movie.

PLUS BONUS CD BOX TO ROUND OUT THE COLLECTION - all five Simon & Garfunkel studio albums- Wednesday Morning, 3 AM; Sounds of Silence; Parsley, Sage, Rosemary & Thyme; Bookends , and Bridge over Troubled Water - Bonus tracks, new remastering and graphics, the whole deal.
Though the American folk movement of the early '60s would influence bands like the Byrds and Buffalo Springfield and a score of oh-so-sensitive '70s singer-songwriters, its two most looming successes during the decade--Bob Dylan and Simon and Garfunkel--couldn't have seemed more disparate. While Dylan turned hard-left, outraging many a folk purist by zealously embracing rootsy blues-rock and its electrified cacophony, S&G veered toward the center, equally infuriating snooty pundits by embracing a Top 40 pop sense whose ostensible shallowness often belied its rich musical diversity. In retrospect, Simon and Garfunkel's career as a duo was remarkably brief (five albums in six years), if no less commercially potent (a slew of Top 40 singles, two Number One albums, and the requisite handful of Grammy Awards). This box set compiles digitally remastered versions of the original S&G albums, each expanded to include bonus tracks (mostly previously unissued demos with a few scattered outtakes, the quartet on Sounds of Silence the best of the lot) and a booklet featuring new notes for each album and song lyrics. It's a rewarding journey, wending from the almost slavish folk devotion of Wednesday Morning 3 AM through the greeting-card iconoclasm of Sounds of Silence, the madrigal-pop of Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, and Thyme to the increasingly impressionistic lyrical landscape of Bookends. It also covers the rich musical tapestry of Bridge over Troubled Waters, which foreshadowed Simon's own diverse solo career by embracing everything from the Everlys and Jan & Dean to Andean folk and R&B
