Drops Of Jupiter (SACD) Train SKU: CMFSA2262 Barcode: CMFSA2262 41.00 £41.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Mobile Fidelity Released Date: 25th December 2024 Buying Format: SACD Add to basket Reserve Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info SOURCED FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES AND STRICTLY LIMITED TO 2,000 NUMBERED COPIES: HYBRID SACD PLAYS WITH OPENNESS, AIRINESS, AND SMOOTHNESS There’s definitely nothing wrong with echoing classic rock and harmonic pop sounds, especially when it’s done this well. Drops of Jupiter, Train’s two-time Grammy-winning 2001 album, revels in sweeping hooks and soulful comfort borrowed from proven 70s methods. Remarks of jealous critics aside, the approach resonated with the public and made Train a ubiquitous presence of mainstream radio, a status the group still enjoys. Sourced from the original master tapes, housed in mini-LP gatefold sleeve packaging, and strictly limited to 2,000 numbered copies, Mobile Fidelity’s hybrid SACD brings listeners closer to the band’s roots-rock instrumentation and vocalist Pat Monahan’s smooth tonalities. Free of the harshness, boxiness, and flatness hampering prior editions, it breathes with an openness and airiness that grants the music translucent qualities. Dynamic headroom and instrumental separation are also enhanced. Suffice it to say that this modern classic has never sounded so good. At its core, the San Francisco quintet’s sophomore record is the sound of what happens when concerns about trends and coolness are put aside and solid, simple, genuinely earnest music is made the primary focus. Drawing from influences such as Elton John and Van Morrison, Train crafts eminently listenable fare steeped in finely tailored melodies and bolstered by affirmative, uplifting messages. Complementary accents in the form of sing-a-long refrains, folksy mandolins, and scene-setting synthesizer fills give songs grounding and fully realized depth. Time and again, the quintet’s acoustic-based material satisfies and inspires. Nowhere is this truer than on the soaring title track, a string- and piano-led orchestral ballad that remained in the Top 40 charts for an incredible 29 straight weeks. Nominated for five Grammy Awards, it won for Best Rock Song and Best Instrumental Arrangement Accompany Vocalist(s). Alternatively shimmering, endearing, and soothing, the rest of the Brendan O’Brien-produced album features the same consistency and passion throughout. Legendary pianist Chuck Leavell (Rolling Stones, Allman Brothers Band) and veteran Elton John arranger Paul Buckmaster also lend their hands, contributing to a set awash in anthemic persuasion and elegant grace.
