Paul McCartney: RAM (96kHz-24bit Hi Res Deluxe Unlimited Version)

RAM, originally released in 1971, is the second post-Beatles album from legendary singer-songwriter Paul McCartney. The only recording to credit both Paul and Linda McCartney, is the latest album from his iconic back catalog, to receive the deluxe archive collection treatment. The album saw overwhelming praise from critics and music fans, topping the UK charts and reaching #2 on Billboard’s Top 200. The album written by the pair featured Wings’ drummer Denny Seiwell and guitarists David Spinozza and Hugh McCracken. The album includes Paul McCartney’s first post-Beatles #1 hit single, “Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey,” which won McCartney a GRAMMY® award for Best Arrangement Accompanying Vocalist(s). Rippling with rock n’ roll melodies and gorgeous arrangements, this quintessential recording is now available with revitalized sonic clarity.

The Beach Boys: The Smile Sessions (88.2kHz-24bit high-resolution audio)

About The Mastering
Edited, Compiled and Mastered from the original master tapes at 24 bit/88.2kHz by The Beach Boys’ long time GRAMMY®-Award-Winning engineer Mark Linett.

From the summer of 1966 into early 1967, the iconic Californian rock band embarked on the anticipated follow-up to their 1966 masterpiece, Pet Sounds. The unreleased album, SMiLE, was recorded and drafted through various sessions but was ultimately abandoned and unreleased, until now. This definitive collection features the full participation of original Beach Boys, Al Jardine, Mike Love and Brian Wilson. The band’s trademark vocals harmonies and riveting guitar work have made them one of America’s bestselling artists of all time. This essential release, embodying the California spirit, features the hit songs, “Good Vibrations,” “Surf’s Up,” “Heroes and Villains,” “Cabin Essence,” “Wonderful,” “Our Prayer” and dozens more. A stunning mosaic of pop-rock anthems, The SMiLE Sessions is a truly long awaited release, now available as a pristine hi-res download.
