Complete item notes

Albert Au,as an iconic Hong Kong folk singer,released "Homecoming," which is not only a music album but also considered an audiophile-grade masterpiece by many experienced audiophilesand second-hand vinyl collectors. This album features many classic English golden oldies from the 70s and 80s,such as "Dust In The Wind" and "Soldier Of Fortune."

Unlike typical pop vinyl,the recording process for "Homecoming" meticulously emphasized the pure sensation of "Unplugged" (acoustic reproduction). The strumming of the acoustic guitar,the singer's warm and mellow mid-range vocals,and the excellent control over ambient noise create a spacious soundstage,making it an excellent material for testing the vocal performance of high-end Hi-Fi audio systems,tube amplifiers,and vinyl turntables. This is why top cashd buyback of Albert Au's first-pressing vinyl records consistently maintain high demand in the second-hand music market.
