My Morning Jacket found itself at a crossroads as it prepared to create the record that would become its breakthrough. Two members had amicably departed on a prior tour, and their replacements were settling into the group’s chemistry. The Kentucky ensemble also felt a desire to change up the approaches that served it so well on its first three LPs. Getting out of that comfort zone, making great use of the recent recruits, and inviting a professional producer into the fold paid immense dividends in the form of the critically revered Z.

Sourced from the original master tapes, pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing, and strictly limited to 2,500 numbered copies, Mobile Fidelity’s UltraDisc One-Step 180g 45RPM 2LP box set of Z presents the 2005 effort ranked by Rolling Stone as one of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time  in audiophile-grade sound for the first time. A considerable part of the record’s celebrated appeal and success — John Leckie’s outstanding production, which tamps down the group’s signature reverb and washes the music with organic warmth and cosmic textures — emerges with previously unheard openness, presence, and grandness. 

Benefitting from an ultra-low noise floor, superior groove definition, and dead-quiet surfaces, this collectible edition frames leader Jim James and company’s fare amid deep-black backgrounds and expansive soundstages. Songs feel natural, golden, and seemingly endless in scope. The extent of the dynamic breadth and accuracy of detail you sense will likely only be limited by the capacity of your stereo. You’ll hear the subtle nuances and smooth falsetto of James’ voice; liveliness of the studio environment; atmospheric flourishes of the effects pedals; wet splash and pounce of the percussion; soft sparkle of the keyboards; and the near-infinite tonality of the guitars like never before. Those benefits extend to the bonus track “Where to Begin.”
