Sourced from the Original Master Tapes and Presented in Audiophile Sound for the First Time: Mobile Fidelity's 180g SuperVinyl 33RPM LP Plays with Riveting Detail, Strictly Limited to 5,000 Numbered Copies

Bob Dylan's First Solo Acoustic Album In Nearly 30 Years: Good As I Been To You Serves As A Prelude To His Celebrated Late-career Arc.

1/2" / 30 IPS analog master to DSD 256 to analog console to lathe.

Sourced from the original master tapes, pressed at RTI, housed in a Stoughton jacket, and strictly limited to 5,000 numbered copies, Mobile Fidelity's 180g SuperVinyl 33RPM LP of Good As I Been to You reveals the immediacy, detail, and stripped-down nature of recording sessions that took place in Dylan's garage studio in California. Simple, raw, and unplugged, the record presents Dylan in peak form - and showcases a diversity of vocal phrasing, soulful chording, harmonica accents, and close-up ambience that on this reissue emerge like never before. As the first-ever audiophile edition of this almost-lost classic, this LP also benefits from SuperVinyl's extraordinary properties: a nearly inaudible noise floor, superb groove definition, and dead-quiet surfaces among them.

Recorded and mixed by Micajah Ryan, and supervised by Debbie Gold, Good As I Been to You took shape at Dylan's home shortly after the singer-songwriter completed sessions in Chicago with a full band. Unaccompanied, he again gravitated to existing works - in this case, traditional folk music - and, with Gold serving as a trusted advisor, performed the songs in multiple keys and tempos until he arrived at what he desired. That careful, determined albeit loose, organic approach emanates from this reissue, on which each note, movement, and space come across more directly, fully, and immediately than on the original formats. It helps draw a through-line to Another Side of Bob Dylan (1964) as well as the similarly themed follow-up, World Gone Wrong (1993) and immersive old-world storytelling of Tempest (2012) and Rough and Rowdy Ways (2020).

Spanning country, folk, sea shanty, bluegrass, and blues motifs, Good As I Been to You re-confirms Dylan's position as an elite interpreter and sculptor - not of just structure but emotion. Dylan delivers the tunes as if he's known them forever. He plays with a subtle sense of mischievousness and retains a largely upbeat demeanor; his eyes seemingly twinkle as he sings and picks. His guitar serves as the guidepost for shuffles, boogies, ballads, and mess-arounds while his innate feel for each specific arrangement and melody helps inform pacing, tone, attack.

Like a great author, he understands the importance of adhering to concision, luring an audience, holding their attention, and maximizing the impact of details, actions, and unexpected turns. Though already coarse and ragged, his voice feels ideal for the subject matter and his phrasing - from the clever ways he stretches syllables to underline meanings on the surprise twists of "Canadee-I-O" to the sheer delight he gets from singing "rowdy-dow-dow" on the protest song "Arthur McBride" - outstanding.

GAIN 2(TM) Ultra Analog(TM) System for Vinyl

GAIN 2 Ultra Analog(TM) is a proprietary cutting system built and designed by legendary design genius Tim De Paravicini, with consultation from one of Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab's founding fathers - Stan Ricker, an audio engineer responsible for many of MFSL's most heralded past releases.

The GAIN 2 Ultra Analog(TM) system is comprised of a Studer(TM) tape machine with customised reproduction electronics* and handcrafted cutting amps that drive an Ortofon cutting head on a restored Neumann VMS-70 lathe. (*It is worth noting that independent studies have confirmed that the GAIN 2 Ultra Analog(TM) system can unveil sonic information all the way up to 122kHz!)

First and foremost, Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs only utilise first generation original master recordings as source material for their releases. MFSL then play back master tapes at half speed enabling the GAIN 2 Ultra Analog(TM) system to fully extract the master's sonic information. The lacquers are then plated in a specialised process that protects transients in the musical signal. (Due to this process, there may be occasional pops or ticks inherent in initial play back, but as the disc is played more, a high quality stylus will actually polish the grooves and improve the sound). MFSL further ensure optimum sound quality by strictly limiting the number of pressings printed for each release. These limited editions, in addition to being collectors' items, ensure that the quality of the last pressing matches the quality of the first.

Mastered by Krieg Wunderlich at Mobile Sound Lab (R), Sebastopol, CA on GAIN 2 ULTRA ANALOG SYSTEM.
