Teddy Edwards and Howard McGhee – Together Again!!!! – Contemporary Records (Acoustic Sounds Series) 180g Vinyl
Another Howard McGhee cut, Together Again!!!! (recorded just before Maggie’s Back in Town!!), is a collaboration between McGhee and his old friend, saxophonist Teddy Edwards. Also featuring Phineas Newborn, Jr on piano, the sultry, otherworldly “Misty” is a spectacular entwining of each musician’s superpowers and the golden mean of musicianship led the Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings to declare that Together Again!!!! is “one of the best mainstream albums of its day.”
This new edition, released as part of the Contemporary Records Acoustic Sounds Series, features (AAA) lacquers cut from the original master tapes by Bernie Grundman and is pressed on 180-gram vinyl at QRP, and presented in a Stoughton Printing tip-on jacket.

A UNIVERSE OF POP: FLEETWOOD MAC’S TANGO IN THE NIGHT FEATURES METICULOUS PRODUCTION, INCLUDES THE HITS “BIG LOVE,” “EVERYWHERE,” “SEVEN WONDERS,” AND “LITTLE LIES” Experience the 1987 Album in Audiophile Sound for the First Time: Mobile Fidelity’s Numbered-Edition 180g 45RPM 2LP Set Captures the Perfectionist Details 1/2″ / 30 IPS analog master to DSD 256 to analog console to lathe The perfectionism involved in crafting Fleetwood Mac’s Tango in the Night reached a level of intensity experienced by few artists before or since. Commercially and creatively, the painstaking efforts paid off. Recorded over the span of 18 months, the triple-platinum album spawned four hit singles and put Fleetwood Mac back at the center of mainstream conversation. Its demands also ultimately forced its primary architect, guitarist-singer Lindsey Buckingham, to leave the group shortly after its completion. Was it all worth it? A thousand times “yes.”
