On Breaking Silence, Janis' voice is in its purest, most vital form ever.

This 1992 all-analogue recording, praised as much for the artist's too infrequently heard talents as for its recorded dynamics, sounds utterly fantastic as a 15 ips ¼-inch tape copy. The tape playback brings crystal clear fidelity to the highest and lowest frequency ranges.

Tracks were recorded at Nightingale Studio on a Studer 820, 16-track machine, 30 IPS, non-Dolby, at the elevation of +6/250 nu using Ampex 499 tape. The album was mixed at Bill Schnee Studio to an Ampex ATR 1/2" machine, at 30 IPS, non-Dolby, at the elevation of +3/250 nu on Ampex 499 tape. Produced, engineered and mixed by Jeff Balding. Flat transfer (unmastered) from the original master tape by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio.
