Each CD was pressed directly from the original studio master session tapes ; the purest source of musical information and engineered to produce the finest CD sound quality available.
Every compact disc delivers the music to you with all the depth, dynamics, and richness of the live recording session. We invite you to hear the three-dimensional quality of the music just as the artist intended for it to sound.
The proprietary mastering technology extracts and transparently stores more musical information from the original master tapes than any other method in existence.
For the discriminating listener, the results include: a wider range of frequencies, increased depth and room dimension cues, clarity, and separation of instruments.
The technology substantially decreases characteristics such as hardness and glare bringing the sound of CD even closer to the warmth and openess of analogue.
Why Buy 24K Gold CDs? Aluminum particles are rough, resulting in pits and irregularities on the playing surface. Gold particles are uniform and have a constant rate of reflection giving an even, reproductive sound quality. Also, 24K Gold CDs will not oxidize or tarnish and will last for years longer than traditional aluminum CDs
Arc of a Diver
Steve Winwood, who at the age of 14 penned for the Spencer Davis Group “Give Me Some Lovin”, and was the lead member of Traffic (one of the Top 100 Groups of All-Time) goes solo on “Arc of a Diver.”
He wasn't Little Stevie, the 16-year-old phenom who set mid- '60s London blazing with his Ray Charles-like vocals, anymore. He was a half-forgotten ex-member of some of rock's most progressive (Traffic) and vilified (Blind Faith) bands, and he was considering leaving show business while recording this--his second album--alone and without a backup band.

| Album notes | |
| Solo performer: Steve Winwood (vocals, various instruments). Recorded at Netherturkdonic Studios, England. With a glorious voice that sounds as if he has just swallowed a jar of cod liver oil, Winwood has the advantage of instant recognition; add to this a musicianship that has been employed in dozens of sessions over the past four decades, and the result is a prodigious talent that runs like a vein of gold through rock music since the Spencer Davis Group. Arc Of A Diver, released at the end of 1980 after a long period of self-imposed retreat, is a triumphant resurgence. With lyrical contributions by Viv Stanshall (the rich imagery of the title track) and Will Jennings, Winwood never falls into the trap of shaming the music with sub-standard words. Another musical genius. | |

Ranked #13 in CMJ's Top 20 Most-Played Albums of 1981 TALKING BACK TO THE NIGHT - Talking Back to the Night hearalds the reemergence of Steve Winwood to the fold of innovative music. Many of his prior albums deserve recognition and naturally, Back in the High Life is a stellar offering, but Talking Back is a special high mark for Winwood and music. The release is clothed in the innovation, preparation, feeling and mastery which comes once in a musician's lifetime. It is his masterpiece. The beautiful, introspective compositions supercede the melodic ante of the time and the brilliant chord progressions offer new material to a decade which was largely blaise and repetitive. Steve raises his head from the safe bilk of 80's money music to create, sing, play and deliver a major contributor. I had to have it from the moment I heard it. Especially enjoyable is Steve's keyboard. He is intimate with it in a way that no mainstream keyboardist has been since (Ray Manzarek?) the Door's Light my Fire. Don't expect intricate ten-thousand-note lead rides. Expect the most soothing inspired keyboards and vocals of the decade. This is MUSICIANS' MUSIC. You won't be disappointed. Dim the lights a little before listening to it. You've discovered a truffle hiding in the mulch. You heard it from ME first! | |
