Recapturing the right sound
In all these cases, Irwin is pursuing his holy grail; a perfectly produced record in a perfect package.
Sundazed is headquartered in Irwin's hometown of Coxsackie. Through the front door are shelves stocked with CDs from bands like the Druids of Stonehenge and the Neanderthals.
"I didn't own a record company and you came over to my house," he says, "... I'd play these same records."
Sundazed's specialty is blasts from the past with an emphasis on American rock and pop from the '60s.
If it sounds like Irwin exists in a time warp, he does. It's called Sunded Music — a small but successful record label borne of the tireless 44-year-old's love of music and knack for rescuing old recordings.
Case in point: Irwin recently finished a mono master of Bob Dylan's Bringing It All Back Home so it could be pressed in vinyl. And he smiles at the thought of unspooling and restoring the waist-high stacks of tape outside his studio from the likes of The Lovin' Spoonful, Mitch Ryder and Nancy Sinatra. He calls it the "buzz that never goes away."
Love of music provides man with rockin' job
The Associated Press
COXSACKIE, N.Y. — Bob Irwin's life is tangled up in audiotape — miles of reels filled with sounds of shaggy-haired singers and jangly guitars.
He also plans to get Love and MC5 on vinyl, and the Spencer Davis Group and O.Jays out on CD. There are plans for a Nancy Sinatra "early years" release.
can be excruciating. In working on a compilation of Simon & Garfunkel for Legacy, Irwin set up a New York City studio just like the duo's studio circa 1966. Because there was no decent stereo master to work with, he tried to make it sound like the first press of the vinyl.
And there are those tapes in the hall and more tapes in some vault, somewhere, waiting to be found.
Other Dylan albums are on tap for future release: "Blonde on Blonde" and four other albums are up next.
but is that kind of loving care worth it so a new generation can hear Nancy Sinatra sing "Light my Fire"?
Apparently yes. Those reissues came during a boomlet in her popularity and "blew the lid off things" for Sundazed, says Irwin.
About a fifth of Sundazed releases are vinyl, which Iwin considers a "recession-proof product." Vinyl records have not only refused to die, he notes, but sales have gone up in recent years as more people have been lured to the romance of dropping a needle into a groove. Some audiophiles believe vinyl offers a warmer sound than the digitized music of CDs.
It helps that a Sundazed album selling between 15,000 and 30,000 is considered a success.
