“IN ROCK” and through the “FIREBALL”, historical masterpiece second quarter DEEP PURPLE has created its peak “MACHINE HEAD”. Name board similar to this piece of the other of the same era, such as the analog era, as well on CD and later also “Anniversary Edition” and high-quality materials board, I have worked without release many times before.
By the progress and material improvement of technology, quality and reproducibility has certainly improved. But often texture difference is, of records and CD of later sound source to be said about the name board from the analog era. In particular, the difference is particularly noticeable in the deep-richness of the natural is and tone, audio fans will have a lot of people that still “people of analog is the preference.”
Further, in between mania “more of the first edition has a higher cutting level, there is a sound groove to near label, yet the sound is good,” and then there is a deep-rooted theory say. The analog board, which is its “best” in this work, and play in the equipment environment of the professional class, as it is digitized into direct!

Parts itself of recorded sound, something like flies out the truth from the speakers, depth and flavor, such as drawn into the more you listen is not only a wonderful word. The difference from the intro of “Highway Star” as described above is remarkable. Crisp guitar and bass contour and snare drum of natural sound is another masterpiece that appears in the 12 th second,. Singing voice was lively of Guillain will continue to penetrate to where to be relaxed! Perfect score also meet to listen to groove in the “Mabe I’m A Leo” and “Never Before”.

Mainly from the right channel, his play will spread to as bleeding into the sound space, and plus the thickness and depth to the entire ensemble (organ solo also must listen from 2:55). John of play you can enjoy in the reproducibility of the best freshness even “Lazy” and “Space Truckin ‘”. Rich experience produces flavor, deep knowledge many of the background backed by play, and mellow tone that does not put out absolutely to other people is exactly aged Ale. Play of the “Maestro” would make you intoxicated fans just listen!
“World’s most famous riff” pops out “Smoke On The Water” is, “the real thing is this kind of sound that’s how!” And forced to admire the while too late. The first half, such as parts to the space is going to fit one by one, unwavering no sense of stability and Driving an uplifting feeling also dependable Roger of the base, if you listen close the strong singing presence … eyes of Guillain, exactly December 1971 , it does not seem to come to mind the figure of five members to perform the recording at the hotel that Swiss Montreux!

Without listening to here as is clear, this is not a story of the pupil can be level in the equalizing and re-master. Tsubudachi of sound to the exquisite sound pressure, and depth. None taste with the current CD, of analog (it is also the first Press) is a splendor.

DEEP PURPLEの名作を、状態最良のオリジナル・レコードから、プロユースの最上級機材でダイレクトにデジタル化した、ファン絶対必聴の3タイトル! 現在オフィシャル・リリースされている各種のアルバムと聴き比べても、その違いは一目瞭然。ナチュラルな質感と艶やかさ、そして最高の迫力で、作品の本当の魅力を味わわせます。
この”オリジナル・アナログ復刻シリーズ”は、ギフト・タイトルだからこそ実現できた奇跡のシリーズ。アナログ時代から聴き込んでいる熱心なファンの方にはもちろん、アナログ未体験のファンの皆さんにも、ぜひお聴き頂きたい一本です!

「IN ROCK」そして「FIREBALL」を経て、第二期DEEP PURPLEがそのピークに生み出した歴史的傑作「MACHINE HEAD」。他の同時代の名盤同様この作品も、アナログ時代はもとよりCD化以降も”アニバーサリー・エディション”や高品質素材盤など、これまで何度と無くリリースを重ねてきました。
技術の進歩や素材の向上により、音質や再現性は確かに向上しています。しかしアナログ時代からの名盤についてしばしば言われるのが、レコードとCD化以降の音源の質感差。特にナチュラルさや音色の深み・豊かさで違いは顕著に見られ、オーディオ・ファンは今なお「アナログの方が好みだ」という人も大勢います。
さらにマニアの間では「初版のほうがカッティング・レベルが高く、レーベル近くまで音溝があり、なおかつ音が良い」と言う説が根強く存在します。本作ではその”最も良い”とされるアナログ盤を、プロフェッショナル・クラスの機材環境で再生し、そのままダイレクトにデジタル化! 一般のファンでは”入手”も”再生”も難しいサウンドを、何度も気軽に(もちろん消耗も気にする事無く!)楽しめます。

本作では「MACHINE HEAD」イギリス盤オリジナルLPファースト・プレス(パープル・レーベルのグラモフォン盤。EMI盤ではありません!)をダイレクトに音盤化。同じ”アナログ復刻シリーズ”での「IN ROCK」同様、こちらも今や入手超困難の激レア・マトリックス番号「M-1」盤から、最良と断言できる再生環境で起こしています。心地よいまろやかな音色、そして太く豊かに鳴り響くサウンドは、「Highway Star」イントロから全ての聴き手を感嘆させる事間違い無し! 本作も世界中のディープなPURPLEマニアが「生きている間に一度は聴きたい」と渇望するサウンドを、機材やレコードの消耗などを気にする必要もなく、いつでも好きな時に満喫できるのです!

絶妙な音の配置とバランスを軸にしたグルーヴ感、各パートの自然な音響と極上の音色は言葉も出ないほど。録音された音のパーツそのものが、スピーカーからありのままに飛び出してくるような感じで、聴けば聴くほどに引き込まれるような深みと味わいは素晴らしいの一言しかありません。前述したように「Highway Star」のイントロから違いは顕著。くっきりとしたギターとベースの輪郭、そして12秒目に登場するスネアドラムのナチュラルなサウンドはもう圧巻。ギランの活き活きとした歌声はどこまでも伸びやかに突き抜けて行きます! 「Mabe I’m A Leo」や「Never Before」でのグルーヴも聴き応え満点です。余裕綽綽と言った小粋なムードは心にくい程です。
特に素晴らしいのは「Pictures Of Home」。一音単位で鮮やかなペイスのドラムに導かれるイントロでは、リッチーのギターが最高の粒立ち。オーディオの知識や経験が無いという人でも、この場面の凄さは直感できるはず。中盤ではジョンのハモンドがまた素晴らしい。主に右チャンネルから、音空間へ滲むように広がっていく彼のプレイは、全体のアンサンブルに厚みと深みをプラスしています(2:55からのオルガン・ソロもまた必聴)。ジョンのプレイは「Lazy」そして「Space Truckin’」でも最高の鮮度と再現性で堪能できます。豊かな経験が生み出す味わい、深い知識のバックグラウンドに裏付けられたプレイの数々、そして余人には絶対に出せない芳醇な音色は、まさに熟成された美酒。”マエストロ”のプレイは、聴くだけでファンを酔わせてしまいます!
“世界一有名なリフ”が飛び出す「Smoke On The Water」は、「本物はこういう音なのか!」と、今更ながらに感嘆させられます。空間へパーツがひとつずつ嵌っていくような前半、揺るぎの無い安定感とドライヴィングな躍動感も頼もしいロジャーのベース、力強く歌い上げるギランの存在感・・・目を閉じて聴けば、まさに1971年12月、あのスイス・モントルーのホテルでレコーディングを行うメンバー5人の姿が浮かんでくるようではありませんか!

ここまで聴かずとも明らかなように、これはイコライズやリマスターでどうこう出来るレベルの話ではありません。絶妙の音圧に音の粒立ち、そして深み。どれも現行のCDでは味わえない、アナログの(それもファースト・プレスの)素晴らしさです。このサウンドの中では、所々で聞こえる針パチ音すらアルバムの表情と化して、格調高く聴こえてしまうから堪りません!
現行CDや過去の復刻版とは、一聴して違いを理解できる優れたサウンド。ほとんどの人が未体験であろうこの音を、本作でどうぞお楽しみください。ギフト・タイトルだからこそ可能になった、完全別格の一本です!
