This record is essentially an exact copy of the master tape and was not treated with any equalizing or limiting during transfer to disc.

In his long and illustrious career Ry Cooder has cut out a unique niche with his reinterpretations of American blues and roots music, and never to greater effect than on his 1979 release ‘ Bop Till You Drop‘, his eighth solo album. The album was also a trailblazer, as the first digitally recorded commercial release on a major label, setting a new standard for recording quality. No generation loss, noise build-up, or loss of presence occurs with this form of recording through mixdown and tape transfers. The result is that music sounds cleaner, brighter and more dimensional.
