Speakers Corner Records

German reissue label for mainly jazz and classical music. "Our name stands primarily for vinyl LPs with a first-class sound and in top quality pressings." However no visible branding as for example on V.S.O.P. replicas Speakers Corner wishes to make clear that it produces lacquers using only original master tapes and an entirely analogue cutting system. New metal stampers used to press records are produced from that lacquer. The only exceptions are when existing metal parts are superior to new ones that might be cut, which includes our release of “Elvis Is Back!”, or several titles from Philips Classics series, where were cut in the 1990s using original master tapes by Willem Makkee at the Emil Berliner Studios. In those cases we used only the original “mother” to produce new stampers. In addition, Speakers Corner admit to having one digital recording in catalogue: The Alan Parsons Project - Eye In The Sky, which was recorded digitally but mixed to analogue tape that we used to cut lacquers. Please note that Speakers Corner does not put barcodes on the sleeves, but instead on a sticker on the shrinkwrap!
