 | | Description: | Permission to get weird is granted with Vanilla Fudge. Created
during the peak of heightened chemical, musical, and social
experimentation, the bandâ??s self-titled debut aims for sonic and
mental expansion via psychedelic means. Consisting primarily of
elongated covers of then-modern works by the Beatles, Supremes,
Curtis Mayfield, and others, the album shape-shifts the familiar into
original, uncharted excursions that lead to colorful dimensions.
Musically and thematically, the 1967 magnum opus occupies
territory located between high-art seriousness and rule-breaking
outrageousness. Its maverick streak treats reverential scripts with
inviting strangeness, offbeat vision, and zero pretension. More than
50 years after its original release, the symphonic arrangements now
sound more ambitious, direct, mesmerizing, and influential than
before courtesy of a superior mono restoration.
Mastered from the original master tapes and strictly limited to 3,000
numbered copies on 180g 45RPM 2LP and 2,000 copies on hybrid
SACD, Mobile Fidelityâ??s reissues unveil the baroque underpinnings,
gorgeous harmonies, grinding soul, and low-end-plumbing organ
riffs that help make the quartetâ??s fare unique. The timing of the
off-kilter tempos and improvisational movements gets cast into
unpolluted light, with the collectiveâ??s expert shading and deliberate
tonality emerging as major components of the songs. Vastly
improved, too, is the powerful, jazz-inspired drumming of Carmine
Appice. Seated deep and wide in the vast soundstage, his playing
illuminates the genius of Vanilla Fudgeâ??s arguably most valuable
assetâ??a sense of dynamics and surprise that contributes to a rich,
malt-like musical thickness true to the bandâ??s name. Thereâ??s not
another album like Vanilla Fudge in the entire rock canon. - ULTRA RARE MONO EDITIONCut from the original Atco analog reels."Vanilla Fudge" is the groundbreaking debut album by the American rock band Vanilla Fudge, released in 1967 on LP format by Atco Records.
