Intervention Records is proud to announce the first CD/SACD release in it's Intervention Sun Records Hi-Fi Series, Carl Perkins' groundbreaking rockabilly classic, 1957's "Dance Album of Carl Perkins." Available for Preorder today.As great as many of these versions are from over the decades, arguably, no one ever did these tunes with more swag than Carl himself on "Dance Album!"The SMASH hits include Perkins-written classics like "Blue Suede Shoes," "Honey Don't," "Matchbox," and "Everybody's Trying to Be My Baby." The album also includes Carl's covers of "Only You" and "Wrong Yo Yo." Intervention worked closely with Sun Records and the Archive Team at Iron Mountain to compile a completely NEW set of A/B reel master tapes for this release. In the late 1960s, when Shelby Singleton purchased Sun Records from legendary Sam Phillips, the original 7" single master tape reels were compiled onto many different sets of 1/4" tapes. Identifying any one tape as "THE master" for a given song is no longer possible, but hours and hours were spent by Sun and IR's Shane Buettner listening to tapes and identifying the absolute best sounding tape version of each and every song. Kelly Pribble, Mark Berger, and Scott Delaney at Iron Mountain made flat 1/4" transfers at our direction to a newly minted set of 1/4" A/B reels for this release. For the CD/SACD Extra Tracks Iron Mountain made DSD transfers directly from the analog master tapes. Gus Skinas at the Super Audio Center prepared Kevin Gray's mastered DSD files for the original repertoire, and mastered the extra tracks in the DSD domain using Gray's mastering notes as a guide. Of course, IR's paid no less attention to the album art, and very special thanks are owed to Joe Goldmark, who loaned us his very-hard-to-find original jacket for color reference. The album art is, of course, restored by IR Art Director Tom Vadakan and authentically realized by the wizards at Stoughton Printing.
