"High End 2017: Lyn Stanley amazes with her lacquers! I spoke with Lyn Stanley before the show, she was gentle enough as to tip me about this event, she would be playing lacquers in the EAR Yoshino room with legendary designer Tim de Paravicini. The system consisted of EAR top of the line electronics paired with Rockport speakers and TimÂ’s turntable with a My Sonic Lab MC cartridge. Lyn and Tim went through the details, explaining how difficult and expensive is to produce a one step vinyl record, omitting several passages (mother copy and stampers) in the pressing chain, thus keeping the sound as close as possible to the master lacquer and the recording itself. Add that to a superb production with nothing but analog equipment used throughout the recording and mastering process and with nothing but the best musicians out there (with names such as Mike Garson and Rickey Woodard to name a few) and you have one hell of a record with Lyn singing classics like "My Funny Valentine" and "Crazy."" - Panagiotis Karavitis, Part-Time Audiophile

"LYN STANLEY/Moonlight Sessions V.1: This classy lassie has been coming out of nowhere on the run since she...well, first started coming out of nowhere on the run. Upping her game with each successive release, here we find her firmly staking out her territory as the jazz diva of the times by surrounding herself with jazzbos who you would buy their own solo records, a song stack that is familiar but she gives a new swing to and a vocal style you will remember. This is a gal of the hour that will be much more than flavor of the month. Killer stuff throughout." - Chris Spector, midwestrecord.com, Read More!

"AXPONA 2017: Lee’s Best of Show: Best Music. Three-way tie. 1. Intervention Records‘ new Flying Burrito Brothers LP. Shane Buettner and Kevin Gray simply don’t know how to do bad work. 2. Lyn Stanley‘s Moonlight Sessions: Volume One. Sounded so natural on the Ultra 11s. Of course, Bernie Grundman was involved on the mastering side and Lyn always has the best musicians and producers. 3. MA Recordings‘ Todd Garfinkle is now pressing LPs of his stellar recordings. Sera Una Noche and several other titles are available so far and we analog fans are richer for it." - Lee Scoggins, Part-Time Audiophile

"Lyn, I have seen you evolve from a very good vocalist to now among the most outstanding. I have to select airplay based on the content, not how much I admire the singer. In this case, you are so outstanding that admiration for your efforts makes it easy to provide you to get top billing on the station. The choice of selections and the arrangements plus your singing are marvelous - For all future releases please send to my attention, and have someone verify the CD was sent to me. As one who has the honor of programming the world's No. One Jazz station, I am pleased that we have such great product to perform." - Saul Levine, KKjz, Mt. Wilson Broadcasting

"Jazz singer Lyn Stanley, whose three albums are prized by audiophiles for their pristine sound, is determined to achieve an even higher level of resolution on her next project. Stanley plans to have a very limited number of vinyl copies of her upcoming “Moonlight Sessions” releases made using the “one-step process.” The manufacturing technique promises to put listeners closer to the sound heard in the studio... The singer is calling her version of one-step “SuperSonicVinyl.” Each album will be spread across two 180-gram, 45-rpm discs. “The sound quality is going to blow everyone away,” Stanley said." - John Stancavage, Part-Time Audiophile Read more!

This one-step pressing process was used often during the early days of vinyl record manufacturing. But when mass vinyl production was needed, the manufacturers had to create more cost effective means to make vinyl copies.

To make a vinyl record, you need a "Negative Source" to imprint the vinyl grooves. The industry standard today is a THREE-step lacquer process designed to create the largest number of records from one lacquer (they are expensive to create). To do this three steps are required–from the lacquer (positive source) STEP ONE: make a "Father" (a negative source), STEP TWO: create a Mother from the Father (positive source) and then STEP THREE: create "Stampers" (negative source) from the "Mother." This way the "Father" does not get used very often and is the most preserved “negative source.” However, the record you listen to is three steps removed from the original mastered lacquer and can grab hissing, or subtile glitches that affect the sound recording on your system. The ONE-Step method takes the “Father” from the original lacquer and that is what will create your vinyl record. Some “Fathers” only last for 100 pressings, others have gone to 1000. It depends on the processing and original lacquer quality. Once the Father is no longer able to make a great recording, it must be destroyed and no other albums can be created from that original lacquer.

Lyn Stanley's SupersonicVinyl™ is a superior quality vinyl record utilizing advanced recording techniques captured with analog mixed and mastered quality tape-recorded and mastered by award-winning engineers in state-of the art studios. Then they hire One-Step experienced 'audiophile quality' pressing plants to create what is believed to be "simply the best recordings' available today.

"Six years ago, Lyn Stanley was a retired marketing executive wondering if she could pass muster for her church choir. Today, sheÂ’s an internationally known jazz vocalist whose award-winning audiophile recordings feature A-list musicians, producers and engineers. While Stanley has carved a niche in the high-end world, her albums go far beyond clinical speaker-testing tools. They practically ooze a lush, emotional atmosphere that only happens on those rare occasions when great players are allowed to stretch out in a relaxed, inspired setting."

"Stanley is now working on her next project, a two-album set she’s calling “The Moonlight Sessions.” Being the restless spirit she is, Stanley has carefully devised an ambitious plan to break some new musical ground. “I’m going to combine jazz standards with classical music,” she explained. “For instance, we’re going to do (Antonio Carlos) Jobim’s “How Insensitive” merged with Chopin’s “Prelude in E Minor.” It may be hard to wrap your head around that concept, but a demo I heard from rehearsals sounded sublime."

Translated from Italian to English:
"Lyn Stanley is now one of the most acclaimed contemporary vocalists who passionately devoted herself to the heritage of the standards, those songs that have been inspired by all the greats of the past. In addition to this, she decided to make the perfect recordings from the technical point of view to the audiophile audience. Sound engineers Al Schmitt and Steve Genewick have done their best to work with Michael Bishop for the mix and Bernie Grundman for mastering. She has chosen a Telefunken U47 microphone -the same one used by Frank Sinatra. They chose to produce the music to their audience offering their favorite listening format, 2LP at 45 rpm, CD-SACD and a tape reel-to-reel tape for those who just want to listen to high quality versions. Several music style choices have been made for the selected musicians on each song to give the right atmosphere to the executions-so, there are three chosen pianists, Mike Garson, Christian Jacob and Tamir Hendelman, Chuck Berghofer is in double bass and three are also drummers Ray Brinker, Joe LaBarbera and Bernie Dresel. There are also many guests who give their valuable contribution, Hendrik Meurkens on the harmonica, John Chiodini on guitar, Bob McChesney on the trombone, Chuck Findley on the trumpet, Rickey Woodard on the sax tenor and Luis Conte at Percussion. On each of the performances there is an accurate work in the studio with the technicians and the musicians. She is a versatile interpreter who gives the best stylistic interpretation for the performances, not the typical jazz vocals as she does not improvise based on scat or experimental interpretations, but always perfectly in tune with the atmospheres of what it sings. Great disc, perfect from an artistic and technical point of view."
