Masayoshi Takanaka – The Rainbow Goblins (Purple Vinyl 2LP)

Popular works by Japan’s legendary guitarist Masayoshi Takanaka have been remastered. Using high-resolution audio sourced from the original master tapes of the internationally acclaimed albums “T-WAVE,” “alone,” and “THE RAINBOW GOBLINS,” remastering and cutting were carried out at Abbey Road Studios in London. “T-WAVE” and “alone” were remastered and cut by Alex Wharton, one of Abbey Road’s top engineers, known for mastering works by Paul McCartney & Wings and The Chemical Brothers. The fan-favorite “THE RAINBOW GOBLINS” was remastered and cut with high-quality half-speed mastering by Abbey Road’s Miles Showell, a renowned mastering engineer known for cutting records by The Beatles, Queen, Eric Clapton, and The Rolling Stones. Each will be released on colored vinyl that enhances the imagery of the jacket artwork.
