Isaac Hayes - "Hot Buttered Soul (Small Batch Series)" *[180gram One-Step Pressing Heavy Vinyl LP]* Released on Stax Records in 1969, Hot Buttered Soul pushed the boundaries of soul music, while setting Hayes on the path to superstardom, thanks to such groundbreaking tracks as "Hyperbolicsyllabicsesquedalymistic," plus ambitious renditions of the Bacharach/David classic "Walk on By" and Jimmy Webb's "By the Time I Get to Phoenix." Small Batch Series features lacquers cut from the original tapes (AAA) by Bernie Grundman on 180g vinyl at RTI using Neotech's VR900 compound. This one-step lacquer process (as opposed to the standard three-step process) allows for the utmost level of musical detail, clarity and dynamics while reducing the amount of surface noise on the record. Each copy is individually numbered and encased in a foil-stamped, linen-wrapped slipcase featuring an acrylic inset of the original artwork. Housed in a reproduction of the album's original tip-on jacket from Riverside Records and protected by an archival-quality inner sleeve. Limited Edition.
