Gaucho — Steely Dan's Grammy-winning seventh studio album reissue Hybrid Stereo SACD release from Analogue Productions!Mastered by Bernie Grundman from a 1980 analog tape copy originally EQ’d by Bob Ludwi Plays in all CD and SACD players. In their review of Gaucho, Rolling Stone proclaims, "Steely Dan have perfected the aesthetic of the tease. Their sound is as slippery as their (lyrical) irony." Gaucho — the seventh studio album by Steely Dan released in November 1980 — and Grammy-winner for Best Engineered Non-Classical Recording, was also nominated for Album of the Year and Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. The sessions for Gaucho represented the band's typical penchant for studio perfectionism and obsessive recording technique. To record the album, the band used at least 42 different musicians, spent over a year in the studio, and far exceeded the original monetary advance given by the record label.

Their presence is as equally vital as Coltrane's – inspiring as well as informing the dimensions of improvisation.

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.
