Featuring Tubby Hayes’ highly collectable Fontana albums as a leader. This vinyl box set will be released on the 26th June 2020.
11 LP deluxe double walled linen cloth bound edged box set | 180g Optimal Pressings | Remastered from the original tape masters | Original Artwork [*except LP2 is hybrid original artwork] | Limited Edition & Numbered | Extensive 11.5’ x 11.5’ booklet liner notes + exclusive photos + scans.

Mastering Notes: The recordings have been lovingly remastered at Gearbox Records’ Studios, London, directly from the original tapes, using a Studer C37 ¼-inch stereo tape machine. They were then equalised through an all-valve mastering desk built bespoke for Decca studios in the late 1950s, Vintage Lang Pultec EQ, Prism Maselec EQ and Telefunken U73b valve limiters from 1959. The LP lacquers were cut on a beautifully restored Haeco Scully Lathe from 1967 with Westrex (Western Electric) head and cutting amps: the same go-to lathe that Rudy Van Gelder used.
