The Legendary Audiophile Live Recording is now on XRCD!

Mastered using K2 Technology

The granddaddy of all live albums, this disc captures the excitement of a Harry Belafonte concert at the height of his popularity! Sampled from two consecutive performances of identical material, Belafonte at Carnegie Hall was an anomaly at a time when only comedy albums were recorded outside of the studio environment. It wasn't the first live album ever made, but it was certainly the first to be a major financial and artistic success.

From the opening trumpet fanfare and brief orchestral overture to the epic 12-minute version of "Matilda" (which set a standard for audience participation), the album never lets up. It is exciting, poignant, thrilling, intimate, and at times, spontaneously hilarious.

This extended resolution CD 2 (XRCD2) from JVC brings the listener higher fidelity and improved audio quality by enhancing the process of mastering and manufacturing compact discs. The XRCD2 is compatible with all CD players.
