Universal Music Catalogue are to reissue Cat Stevens’ first two albums ‘Matthew & Son’ and ‘New Masters’ on 27th March, available on vinyl for the first time since 1982. Exquisitely ‘De-mixed’ with enhanced vocals at the world-famous Abbey Road Studios, both albums will be available on 180 gram vinyl with fully restored artwork. Featuring newly enhanced vocals, Abbey Road Studios has used their revolutionary ‘Demix’ software on the original master tapes to reinvigorate and breathe new life into both albums. Where vocals have always been buried by the subsequent orchestral backing track, ‘Demixing’ enables the studio to digitally extract and enhance the original vocals to create a superior listening experience for Cat Stevens fans. As well as vocals, ‘Demixing’ has also considerably helped amplify the bass, something that was commonly strenuous to achieve with mixes in the late 1960s.
