Coproduced by Adam Faith and David Courtney, ‘Silverbird’ was recorded at several locations including Virgin Records’ Manor Studios, The Who’ lead singer Roger Daltrey’ Barn Studio and Apple studios. Following another successful UK tour in Autumn 2022, Leo Sayer has recently been on tour in the USA for the first time in decades a country that took him to their hearts with two 1 Singles and a GRAMMY Award and although he now has Australian citizenship, Leo remains one of the UKs great singersongwriters and performers of all time. This 50th Anniversary celebratory halfspeed master version has been newly mastered by Phil Kinrade, and expertly cut using transfers of the original audio tapes using precision halfspeed mastering by Barry Grint at AIR Mastering, London and is pressed on heavyweight 180g vinyl, with a 4page insert containing the lyrics.
Heavyweight vinyl is pressed on thicker, denser material—typically weighing 180 grams or more. This added weight offers improved durability, reduced warping, and is often believed to provide better sound quality due to more stable playback. Many audiophile releases, reissues, and deluxe editions are pressed on heavyweight vinyl, making it a popular choice among collectors and music enthusiasts who value both performance and longevity. While it doesn’t automatically guarantee superior audio, its solid, premium feel and association with high-quality production standards have made it a trusted format for serious vinyl fans.
Vinyl records are a timeless format that continues to captivate music lovers with their warm, analogue sound. Unlike digital formats, vinyl offers a rich, textured listening experience that many argue feels more authentic and immersive. With their larger artwork and tangible presence, records bring a sense of nostalgia and artistry to any music collection.
Whether you’re a seasoned collector or new to the world of vinyl, records have a unique ability to connect listeners to music on a deeper level. Their physical grooves and the ritual of placing a needle on a spinning disc create a tactile and engaging experience. From classic albums to modern releases, vinyl remains a cherished way to enjoy music.
