For many, the wealth of these playing techniques, the presented and fused styles and sound distortions will seem like a guitar solo concert from another planet. But it is precisely this eclectic approach without any musical blinkers that results in a furious guitar masterpiece that is second to none. Capturing precisely these fine nuances on tape in a nave of a church without giving the actually useful background noises too high and then disturbing a presence is the challenge for a sound engineer in this setting. As expected, Dominique Klatte mastered this task with flying colors. When listening, you inevitably have the impression of sitting right next to Claus Boesser-Ferrari and being able to perceive all facets of his playing." 

Vita: Claus Boesser-Ferarri, born in 1952, is a style-defining guitarist, composer and lecturer with an international reputation. He has expanded the sound aesthetics of the acoustic guitar to include sound-painting alienations and sophisticated rhythmic-percussive techniques. www.boesser-ferrari.de

A high-quality copy is made of each master tape, from which the further copies are made for our customers. This means that the sound quality of the "first hour" is completely preserved. If the purchased tape is damaged (e.g. tape tangle) and the reel is returned, a one-time free copy is made and sent back to the customer. The "Pure Tape Recording" master tapes are delivered in a beautiful archive box, with exclusively made aluminium NAB reels and a 4-page booklet, as well as a hand-signed photo of the musicians. The reel and booklet also have a serial number and signature.

 

The focus of this project is on the master tape. The tracks on these tapes cannot be heard in this quality on any other media. The exclusive recordings present various musicians from all areas of jazz and world music. Another nice effect is that Jazz On Vinyl benefits from the selection of special musicians. Many of the artists involved would like to release more pieces on vinyl and not just please a small circle of master tape lovers.
