Nick Heyward North Of A Miracle Limited Gatefold Half Speed Master 180gram Vinyl LP
Overview:
Released in October 1983, “North Of A Miracle” was Nick Heyward’s first solo album after leaving Haircut 100. Produced by Geoff Emerick (The Beatles, Elvis Costello, Badfinger, Art Garfunkel, America, Supertramp and many more), the album features the hits “Take That Situation”, “Whistle Down The Wind”, “Blue Hat For A Blue Day” and “On A Sunday”. The album went on to sell over 100,000 copies in the UK, earning a Gold Disc Award.
The album features the top sessions players of the time, including Pino Palladino, Steve Nieve, Dave Mattacks and Tim Renwick.
This new edition has been expertly mastered by Barry Grint at AIR Mastering from the original stereo tapes using precision half-speed mastering. Half-speed mastering is a vinyl cutting technique that improves groove accuracy and transient information creating an incredibly detailed stereo image with a natural high frequency response.
