The discs brought together here, classics of the LP era from the 1960s and 1970s, are all included in the series, but are now re-presented in their original format, without the mediation of the special The Originals remastering process, the ele¬gantly-titled Original-Bit Image-Pro¬cessing. In other words, these LPs offer direct transfers from untreated analogue sources.
