Wheels Of Fire

Beskrivelse

WHEELS OF FIRE 5CD SUPER DELUXE EDITION fortæller historien om tilblivelsen og realiseringen af Creams banebrydende tredje album. Sættet indeholder en særlig, nymonteret og remasteret stereo-udgave af de ni studieindspilninger fra Wheels Of Fire. Oprindeligt udgivet i 1968 med CSG-behandlede optagelser, præsenteres denne remastrede og de-CSG’ede version nu med fasekorrektion, hvilket giver en mere detaljeret lydoplevelse og et klart lydbillede.

Derudover får du adgang til nyremastrede mono- og stereo-versioner af studiealbummet, som stammer fra den afdøde producer Felix Pappalardis private referencebånd. Disse optagelser er aldrig tidligere udgivet og byder på adskillige alternative mixes.

Kollektionssættet indeholder også remastrede versioner af de fire live-numre, der blev indspillet i marts 1968 og oprindeligt udgivet på LP2 af Wheels Of Fire. Herudover medfølger otte ekstra live-tracks fra de samme koncerter, inklusive en hidtil uudgivet liveoptagelse af “We’re Going Wrong,” som blev indspillet den 10. marts 1968 i Winterland Ballroom.

En ny samling af sjældenheder er også en del af pakken, med i alt 15 sjældne optagelser, hvoraf ni aldrig før er udgivet. Denne samling indeholder tidlige versioner, alternative mixes og singleversioner. Blandt højdepunkterne finder du WHITE ROOM (EARLY VERSION MONO MIX), DESERTED CITIES OF THE HEART (MONO ROUGH MIX / NO STRINGS) og CROSSROADS (MONO SINGLE VERSION), sammen med syv ekstra alternative stereo- og mono-mixes, tre singleversioner og to sjældne liveoptagelser.

Sættet afsluttes med en hardcover bog, der indeholder noter skrevet af Jim Faber samt fotografier af Cream fra perioden. De fem CD’er ligger i en gatefold-æske, og sammen med bogen er hele pakken indpakket i en robust slipcase med en elegant sølvlamineret finish.
