And the music has never sounded so excitable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSourced from the original analog master tapes and pressed on dead-quiet vinyl, Mobile Fidelity's numbered-edition 180g 45RPM 2LP set elevates the best-selling album of Zevon's distinguished career to audiophile status. Co-produced by Browne and Waddy Wachtel – and featuring contributions by members of Fleetwood Mac plus Linda Ronstadt, J.D. Souther, Leland Sklar, and Browne – the platinum-certified record now plays with a verve and explosivity that match its subject matter. Listeners will experience wide separation between the instruments; full-range dynamics that underscore the depth of the arrangements; sterling transparency that draws a through-line to the original sessions at the Sound Factory; warmth on a par with the finest analog recordings; presence that elevates the body and tenor of Zevon's vocals; and an openness and balance resulting from the freedom that Browne and Wachtel afforded recording engineer Greg Ladanyi.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Music Direct","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47516010414263,"sku":null,"price":59.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0532\/2555\/4103\/files\/d1_971f28c8-9ada-44c1-bc96-40eec8ab5190.jpg?v=1776022799","url":"https:\/\/skyvalleyrecords.com\/products\/warren-zevon-excitable-boy-180g-45rpm-2xlp","provider":"Sky Valley Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
