The third of five albums by Miles Davis' legendary Second Great Quintet — and the second record in a still-unprecedented string of eight consecutive releases within a four-year period that forever changed the face of jazz — the 1967 effort mesmerizes with instrumental colors, subdued musings, and subtle details. These crucial characteristics blossom with vibrant realism on Mobile Fidelity's 180g 33RPM SuperVinyl LP.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSourced from the original master tapes and pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing, this numbered-edition audiophile edition of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eSorcerer\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ejoins the ranks of other essential Davis records given supreme sonic and packaging treatment by Mobile Fidelity. Longtime listeners will immediately recognize a wealth of information and depth of tonality unavailable on prior versions. The myriad shadings, interwoven textures, and relaxed nuances that tie the post-bop set's warm compositions together are rendered with utmost realism. Credit goes to MoFi's engineers as well as the label's groundbreaking SuperVinyl profile that features the lowest-possible noise floor as well as sublime transparency, dead-quiet surfaces, and superb groove definition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy any measure, this is a reference reissue. You'll hear poetic lyricism pouring out of Wayne Shorter's horn, the breadth and definition of the notes spreading across an enormous soundstage. Never before have drummer Tony Williams' rim shots ricocheted with such purpose or his light percussive work mirrored that of a feather touching skin. Similarly, Herbie Hancock's piano runs occupy their own space, where their relationship to the central rhythms and front line becomes clearer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrizing inflection and nuance more so than heady solos or uptempo flights,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eSorcerer\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003emesmerizes with cerebral properties and cascades of emotional interplay. Such beauty emerges in the mellow ballad \"Pee Wee,\" an indelible statement of restrained authority and sophisticated expression. The swirling title track unfolds as jazz shadowplay, Hancock, Shorter, and Williams mirroring one another's moves with guile and purpose. The opening \"Prince of Darkness\" showcases the ensemble's reach and communication, every musician going in seemingly different directions yet ending up on the same page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA lasting example of Davis' visionary insight,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eSorcerer\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis comprised entirely of pieces written by his band mates. Indeed, save for the closing \"Nothing Like You\" — a brief tribute to Davis' eventual wife, who also graces the cover, recorded in 1962 and adorned with vocals from Bob Dorough — the album represents a further maturation and refinement of a quintet that stands as one of the finest in jazz history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMoFi SuperVinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeveloped by NEOTECH and RTI, MoFi SuperVinyl is the most exacting-to-specification vinyl compound ever devised. Analog lovers have never seen (or heard) anything like it. Extraordinarily expensive and extremely painstaking to produce, the special proprietary compound addresses two specific areas of improvement: noise floor reduction and enhanced groove definition. The vinyl composition features a new carbonless dye (hold the disc up to the light and see) and produces the world's quietest surfaces. This high-definition formula also allows for the creation of cleaner grooves that are virtually indistinguishable from the original lacquer. MoFi SuperVinyl provides the closest approximation of what the label's engineers hear in the mastering lab.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"features\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumbered, Limited Edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e180g High-Definition SuperVinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e33rpm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMastered from the 1\/4\" \/ 15 IPS Analog Master to DSD 256 to Analog Console to Lathe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressed at Fidelity Record Pressing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"musicians\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMusicians\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMiles Davis\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003etrumpet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRon Carter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ebass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHerbie Hancock\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003epiano\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTony Williams\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003edrums\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWayne Shorter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003etenor saxophone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBob Dorough\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003evocals on \"Nothing Like You\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"selections\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSelections\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide 1:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrince of Darkness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePee Wee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMasqualero\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Sorcerer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide 2:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimbo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVonetta\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNothing Like You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Music Direct","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59547637842001,"sku":"194399826515","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1034\/5778\/3889\/files\/mfsl1-519sv__06009.jpg?v=1779335706","url":"https:\/\/c09u90-kd.myshopify.com\/products\/pre-order-miles-davis-sorcerer-mfsl-supervinyl-lp","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
