Heart’s breakthrough debut, Dreamboat Annie, has often been framed in the context of a female-led band successfully matching the moves of its male counterparts during an era when women weren’t associated with rocking out — particularly on a mainstream level. While that take is true — Ann and Nancy Wilson practically stood alone amid a commercial age dominated by testosterone — it undersells the appeal, scope, and craftsmanship of an album that deserves to be revered strictly because of its merit, not because of the gender of the group’s principal members.

Run DMC – Run DMC – Mofi 180g 33RPM SuperVinyl LP
The Album That Invented Hardcore Hip-Hop: Run-D.M.C. Changed The Sound Of Music And Popular Culture
Run-D.M.C.’S 1984 Debut Benefits From Restorative Treatment On Mobile Fidelity’s 180G Supervinyl 33Rpm Lp: Limited To 3,000 Numbered Copies, Includes New Liner Notes
1/2″ / 15 IPS analog master to DSD 256 to analog console to lathe
The impact, influence, and importance of Run-D.M.C.’s self-titled debut – the album that invented hardcore hip-hop and bridged rap, rock, and funk in then-unparalleled ways – cannot be measured. The first full-length record released by Profile Records, the 1984 set permanently changed the sound of music, broadcast streetwise wisdom to every corner of the country, and made the notion of a one-man band a distinct reality. Bolstered by an incendiary blend of staccato deliveries, stark beats, aggressive exchanges, evocative hooks, and socially conscious messages, Run-D.M.C. still hits listeners in the jaw with the same intensity it did nearly 40 years ago when it could be heard booming from ghetto blasters carried around city blocks nationwide.

Foreigner – 4 – Analogue Productions Atlantic 75 Series 180g 2LP 45rpm Vinyl
IN STOCK NOW
Analogue Productions (Atlantic Series) Celebrating the 75th Anniversary of Atlantic Records! Foreigner’s No. 1-selling fourth studio album!
Throughout the course of three late-70s albums, Foreigner (along with Journey and Styx) was recognized as one of the top AOR bands of the era. But the band was still looking for that grand slam of a record that would push them to the very top of the heap.
Released in 1981, 4 would be that album, writes AllMusic.
