Weitere Infos
Die hier aufgeführte CD gehört zu der Reihe der von MFSL produzierten Gold-CD`s.

Begonnen hat das Ganze im Februar 1987 mit der Veröffentlichung des Jazz Samplers (Katalog-Nr. 501). Die letzte in dieser Serie veröffentlichten CD`s war in September 2003 von John Lennon (Imagine, Katalog-Nr. 759). Mittlerweile gehören die MFSL-Gold CD`s in audiophilen Kreisen zu den weltweit am meisten gesuchtesten CD`s.

Die Ingenieure wollten damals eine ganz besondere Mastering-Technik anwenden, angelehnt an die Entwicklung der schweren Vinyl-LP's, mit denen MFSL seinen Ruhm in Sachen Mastering begründete. Auf dieser Suche nach dem optimalen Remastering der Masterbände für die CD`s haben die Mo-Fi Ingenieure das sogenannte GAIN 2™ System entwickelt und hierdurch zum ersten Mal Wärme und Räumlichkeit auf einer CD wiedergeben können.

In seiner heutigen Anwendung erlaubt das GAIN 2 System bis dato unmögliche Annäherung an den Klang des ursprünglichen Masterbandes. Alle veröffentlichen CD`s waren in Ihrer Stückzahl limitiert, leider gibt es keine genauen Angaben über die Stückzahlen der jeweiligen produzierten Gold-CD's.

Auch die von MFSL verwendeten Lift-Lock-Jewel-Cases waren ein Novum für die Aufbewahrung der CD's. Man musste nur die Hülle aufklappen, und schon kam einen die CD entgegen

Rezension

Audio
Gold-CD Adrett gewandet und fein getunt eroberte das Liverpooler Quartett mit stets sauberem Satzgesang zu forschem Beat und gefühligem Pop die Charts. Auch ohne die Searchers-Hits "Love-Potion No.9" oder "Sweet For My Sweet" offerieren die hier gekoppelten Lps "It's The Searchers" ('64) und "Take Me For What I'm Worth" ('65) reichlich Attraktives: 26 Oldies (vier in mono), erstaunlich klar remastert, von "It's In Her Kiss" über "Needles And Pins" oder Jerry Lee Lewis' "I'm Ready" bis zu Phil Spectors "Be My Baby". ** Musik: 03-04

Review by Richie Unterberger
Perhaps the best studio album by a band that is really best represented by greatest-hit collections. This 1964 LP includes the classic hits "Needles and Pins" and "Don't Throw Your Love Away." It also features some of their best LP cuts, on which they applied their famed harmonies to American material that was both strong and obscure. The best of these covers are Bacharach/David's "This Empty Space" (originally by Dionne Warwick), the Jackie DeShannon-penned "Can't Help Forgiving You," the Drifters' "I Count the Tears," the folkish "Sea of Heartbreak," and "Where Have You Been" (which was also part of the Beatles' repertoire during their Hamburg days). The harder-rocking songs don't lend themselves as well to the group's talents, which always (with some notable exceptions) lay more in the folk-rock and Merseybeat direction than R&B/rockabilly.
 

Review by Richie Unterberger
The Searchers were not only slipping in popularity by the time of this release, but were also slipping considerably behind the prevailing musical trends of the times. Maybe that's why they offered more original tunes (four) than usual. Still, the group sounded pretty much like they always did in the mid-'60s, though this is perhaps one of their weaker albums. Their interpretation of P.F. Sloan's anthemic protest folk-rock title track is good, and gave the group their final British Top 20 hit. But, as usual, their R&B covers (of Fats Domino and Marvin Gaye) are inoffensively second-rate and dated, and the originals equally inoffensive and unmemorable. Their cover of The Ronettes' "Be My Baby" is competent but ill-advised; nothing's going to compete with the original. The harmonies and arrangements are never less than pleasant and professional, but even big fans of the group will count this among their lesser relics. It does, however, include a couple of their better album tracks: a cover of the obscure Jackie DeShannon composition "Each Time" and, especially, a fine acoustic reading of Ian Tyson's "Four Strong Winds.
