Mastered directly from the original analog tape to Direct-Stream-Digital. Charles Mingus' 1962 Studio Album Oh Yeah Reissued as Part of the Atlantic Records 75th Anniversary Series on Hybrid Stereo SACD. After several sessions with Columbia and Candid, Charles Mingus briefly returned to Atlantic and cut the freewheeling Oh Yeah, which AllMusic says has to rank as the wildest of all his classic albums. Mingus displays all of his vigorous jazz feeling on this album; he plays no bass whatsoever, hiring Doug Watkins to fill in while he accompanies the group on piano and contributes bluesy vocals to several tracks (while shouting encouragement on nearly all of them).

Brilliant late '50s material by the great hard bop pianist and equally gifted supporting players, bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Philly Joe Jones. Clark was among the most inventive pianists of the period, a masterful ballad interpreter and dynamic uptempo soloist, while Chambers and Jones had few peers, either as accompanists or in the spotlight.

Comes in a mini-LP style gatefold cardboard sleeve, with obi, Japanese liner notes insert and Acoustic Sounds series promo sheet. Recorded February 3, 1959, and originally released in 1960. DSD mastering.

HYBRID SACD PRESENTS LANDMARK 1970 ALBUM IN REFERENCE-LEVEL AUDIOPHILE SOUND Ladies of the Canyon can be viewed as Joni Mitchell's coming-out party. Having recently moved to Lookout Mountain in Los Angeles' Laurel Canyon area - her house is depicted in a watercolor painting she made for the record's cover - the Canadian icon turned to her immediate surroundings for inspiration all the while taking the pulse of national affairs, corporate enterprise, celebrity, and her relationship with Graham Nash. The rather upbeat Ladies of the Canyon also finds the singer-songwriter morphing into the groundbreaker who would shed folk music's constructs and wade into pop, jazz, soul, and poetry with a combination of depth, sophistication, self-examination, and acumen no one had ever heard. Deemed 'powerful and brilliant' upon release by The New York Times, this 1970 set marks the first of six consecutive masterworks Mitchell made - and an album that deserves to be heard in reference-grade audiophile sound on Mobile Fidelity's numbered-edition hybrid SACD.
